    he got the sliders later on - those pics were from when he was riding like a girl.

    had to take off the sidestand as it was scraping very very early......

    but then a fella glen williams...taught me lines around the track..... so then yeah learnt those lines...did another session in slow.... (cheers glen bloodey awesome bloke you are)

    then came to pit...got told your too fast for slow youve gotta go in medium...it scared the heck outta me but i went in medium.... and FROSTY said i needed to learn to hang off....glen was a bit busy having lunch and said hey go have a play and ill come out next session.... so sweet as away i went with some sliders which westie gave me just incase..... (cheers bro ...sorry for errr read on ull understand) lol


    so out i went....got to turn 6..... bwarr..hanging off..was peg down..stuck me knee out a bit.....graaauuuunch...OMG knee down yayyyyy! first time ever!

    from then on i gradually build up till i could knee down every corner ....by the end of the session...i had worn off the bits under my pegs...... knee sliders wernt as nice as they used to be....

    i was getting her so far over on the last turn before the back straight.....that my knee was down sandwiched between track and fairing! i was just like holy heck.....while peg down...and as it turns out...my fairing was scraping the track too.... oopsie LOL my poor fairing haha

    the following link is a photo of the scrapes on my fairing from getting her over....

    Good to hear Mark.

    Hopefully this will be an ongoing thing that you get your fix on the track and no longer need to be a squid on the road. Enjoy.
    Those who insist on perfect safety, don't have the balls to live in the real world.

    2mins aint too bad... i know i did a 1min 51secs or so around the old track with the tight ass chicane which tripped up most of the litre riders who were just throttle jockies. I think that equates to about 1min 45 or something A1GP but I never got timed on the track as it is now. That was on my R6, maybe if you check mylaps.com or whatever it is called you might find some times from the StreetStock races that you can compare with?

    where opinion holds more weight than fact.

    It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.
