    Did you get one of me low-siding into Castrol? Or were you one of those miserable buggers, laughing their heads off as they photographed me on the hearse? :--))))

    Were you on the burgundy something, numbered 1?

    Surprisingly, very few "dropped" by Castrol today... and I doubt that you were the 41 superbike that landed with a very respectable thud right in front of us.

    Yup. That were me.

    Damned fine little bike, that one. KR150, with attitude, ''cept I think I need to change the cogs to cater for my porcine personage. :--))

    Out of Castrol and the hairpin, second hasn't got enough and first runs out of rpm.

    But then, hey, I'm a rank amateur, so it's probably me. Only time will tell. :--))

    I feel for the poor guy on 41. He binned on the hairpin, right?

    He was due to ride South for a holiday, like next week, I gather. Bummer.

    He said he came in just too hot, and lost it.

    He was not a happy-chappie.

    Where does a man go to find pics from all the various photographers there on the day?

    There were several 41's out there... but the one that dropped in on us was a checked gsxr if I remember rightly... he was lucky to ride back to the pits from that one, I think the stones prevented a lot of the potential damage, but he certainly hit stones/grass hard.

    Depends, sometimes the photographers will start a thread, but the pros all have their own sites. Being an ART day, I don't think many would have bothered to come, but I know 2 amateurs were around, as they were with us for part of the day

    That was me and my mate taking the photo's, I ended up taking about 200, but can't see any of dpex he must of crashed early on, if anybody else was racing let me know the color of your bike,leathers,helmet, and I'll check through them.

    Hey, I was on the track on Sunday. I was on a red/black R6 #77, black/white leathers, multi-coloured lid with blue stripe down the middle. Would love to see any pics if you got any. The posted ones are pretty cool, good work!

    Hope these are the right bikes, sorry about the quality, always the way when asked for photo's, your one's don't come out as good as the rest your've taken.

    I DID NOT CRASH! I simply felt the need to lay down for a while.

    We old fucks need our afternoon naps.

    I've said it before and sorry, I'll say it again.......

    As a photographer, do not show your shit photos.

    You may well be remembered for them.

    For one I don't care what you think about the photo's, when I raced I was pleased to get any photo's of me no matter how they came out, so I'm giving the only ones I happened to have of them.
