    Practice day 1 invergiggle

    Today was very windy --the track is like --WOW --scarey fast
    I started out doing 1.25 second laps and Im down to consistant 1.15s with the occasional 1.14 biffed in there--
    The way the day ran was 20 minutes on the track then 20 off then 20 on---like 10 track sessions
    Im totally exhausted and gonna climb into bed

    going on previous times he might have to lose another 10 to run at the front of the field

    Turn 1 provides a lot of passing opportunities if you have the balls for it

    Indeed. Looks like Teratonga is a difficult track to race on the first time. Better luck with the rest of the races Frosty.
    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

    Wow some huge differences in times. What happened to Sugilite as well? His times in Superbike are way down on others.
