Good on you for not quitting.
I'd have to say the super moto class was one of the most enjoyable to watch

I was there in my usual place, but I did not see any of you people. I guess you must have seen me first. Except Large David of course, who seemed to be everywhere all at the same time.

Aye, the motards were brilliant, I've never seen them race before and it was brilliant!

Props to Quasievil for getting back into it after binning it too

Ubiquitous Dave.

I wouldnt take carvers internet persona too seriously from what ive seen he seems like a good guy...

Seems to be what everyone says... It's only the internet.

not sure if it was me all out of shape down the main straight but it was a bit hard to keep the wheel down so maybe

Meh who cares, it looked like fun! First time on the circuit for you?
Honestly, seeing a good 10 or so bikes flying down that pit straight power standing off that bump in the road was pretty cool. That guy with dreds and the jet on the back of his bike was a bit of a crowd favorite after he had a few mishaps on the corner before the hairpin The suicide shift Indian was interesting to watch, too.

Looking forward to your helmet cam video quasi mate!
I'm amazed they let you continue after doing it twice.

Highlights:

• The Indian with the hand shifter down on the engine.
• The crazy sidecar swingers lying on top of the back, feet up in the hair while the rider barely keeps control.
• The guy with the streetfightered ZX10 who raced for the fuck of it, blows through a few barriers and then takes off back onto the track before they could help! (Lean a bit dude!)
• Camping overnight inside the fenced area (sif pay for entry!)
• Chiller that stayed cold all the way to the end, beer!
• $1 sausages, how the other places kept in business selling them for $2 I don't know!
• Standing by the starting line while the engines were revved up.
• Suzuki bashing goodness

Now that is good panning....

[Brett]

more assumptions, i wanted to MEET sarge, sarge is the one getting all defensive, i can handle myself.

I was more referring to the other members post saying he would wipe the floor with both of you two. Thought he was being a bit cocksure and arrogant. Not related to what you were saying.

Yeah the guy on the green and white bike (61 Hayden Fitzgerald?) looked like he lost the front of the bike on the inner manhole.

Quasievil... two offs and back. I'm impressed. You looked a little slower after the second one. The video should be good though. the motards were pretty impressive. (And arrive as a bunch at the hairpin it seemed)

I was surprised at the number of offs.

Good effort mate, good to see ya pick it up and kick her after that second one. Was cringing when i saw the cam taped to the helmet, hope it survived okay
May have caught your pile-up in race 2 on vid from the outside of the hairpin, will have to check out the camera tomorrow. Will send it on if i did

Tried to get some of the big boys wheelstands down the front straight on the last race too, think i caught a couple of them nicely. Will post up after work tmrw
