TSS Red Baron King of Kaitoke, Round 4

[gatch]

I'm not sure as I'm still working it out but I'd gear higher than that.
Unfortunately I'm not sure what I'm revving to at the moment but my current gearing should see 91.4 Kph at the top of top at 10,000rpm and I'm topping that gearing out.
I think it must be revving to less than that but 70 is prob still a bit low and its better to be geared to high rather than too low. (I reckon anyway)

What is your final drive ratio ?

What is your final drive ratio ?

3.36:1 but thats probably not directly relevant as the primary drive (engine to gearbox) is really low, something like 4.117:1

Great day of racing, I absolutely loved racing with decent 125gp wet tires. They were amazing! I can't believe I'm actually saying I want it to rain again at some stage to do it again (too bad the wets got a bit chewed up with the semi dry race). I am a little disappointed that I wasn't closer to the front in the last race and I don't have an excuse other than I just wasn't pushing it hard enough. I didn't slide all day.

It's a huge shame to see Sully having a rough day that was made worse by a comment towards him (not by a biker) that was totally unnecessary. You should definitely come back next weekend though for at least one of the days, buckets only.

Thanks again Fish for the huge effort you put into these meetings, they are a hell of a lot of fun and I think I need to get a 50cc 2 stroke to join the A graders who are jumping into B grade too. B grade field is huge, even in crap weather like today!! Thanks also to Nigel for helping sort the A grade guys and helping me with my bike with the tire change.

Hope everyone that crashed (and there were A LOT... as well as repeat offenders) is feeling ok and can get their bikes sorted for next weekend.

[Kendog]

I agree, awesome days racing.
My best race was the practice damn it, but had a lot of fun the in the points races as well. Some serious battles going on.

Hope to see everyone at Easter. Two days of bikes only giving us more riding than the body can take.

Yeh good day in the end. Didn't get on the pace till the end of the day really. Found some speed in the last race. I am Looking forward to the weekend. It will be great to see all the out of town posse again.

Might only make one day though with other commitments.

I don't think anyone would mind if you didn't do both days...

[all4A50s]

Thanks for a great day, but f#@k I'm sore. Managed to land on the bottom lip of my back protector and lose a bit of skin.

Must remember for next time,
Don't unload suspension and change down two gears with suspension set up for commuting .

[richban]

I don't think anyone would mind if you didn't do both days...

Gee thanks.

[Str8 Jacket]

Gee thanks.

lol, I was meaning competition wise .... One less person for the fast guys to beat!

[Henk]

You had me wondering which way you meant that Hels
Weather looking like it might be good for the weekend, so we're both keen to come down (Henk's getting pissy with me as I'm keen if the weather's good, he's keen anyway - but not on the drive lol).
Being lazy and not logging him out of here. - Michelle

Oh yes, the joy of partnerships..... I wouldn't want to be stuck in a van with you all that way either! Come for as many nights as you need, just let us know when your turning up!


Oh the joys of partnership!!

Will do. People bitch about having to work/deal with me, I keep telling them, at least they can f'ing walk away, I'm stuck with me 24/7 and nothing I can do about it.
If you're meaning Henk, I was tempted to ride down as well, cause that way we don't have to pretend we like each other for 10 hours, just put a helmet on, and ride away.
Must make sure this time I put the Cd's somewhere accessible, I'll sure as hell need a break from him yakking.
No further comment, as I'm bound to be in enuf shit tomorrow when he reads this lol
