Have booked into Inters for this as Cadwell was all booked up the weekend I was able to do.
Anyone else upi for it to either take part or spectate?
It is open to anyone unlike the GJ only days I go on but get booked in quick if you wanna as the weekend slots get filled very quickly!
June 10, 2008 at 6:31 pm #55244HippoDronesParticipantWOW, what a circuit!
Had a fanfookintastic day, was 4 of us GJ’s all huddled round the power socket lol. 2 went home in pieces but I stayed on! *lol*
That track is so so tiring, but really rewarding too! Had such an awesome day.
Oops:
and the pro phots:
We only had 1 wet session and my 2CT’s were spot on.
Really reccommend trying this track to any that live local or have a van!
June 10, 2008 at 6:32 pm #55245HippoDronesParticipantBring on Rockingham on the 14th of next month!
June 10, 2008 at 8:12 pm #55246imperialdataKeymasterFantastic shots Pete, the bike’s looking good in the new colours. Certainly can’t miss you now!
The Kwak looks a bit worse for wear, is the rider OK?
June 10, 2008 at 11:39 pm #55247HippoDronesParticipantyeah both me mates who had offs were ok, Steve (kwak rider) had a massive off at the end of the start finish straight into Gerrards, was very lucky tbh as he cartwheeled a bit and even buried his head in the kitty litter! Rhys (cbr6) snapped his bar and peg off, twisted his subframe and popped a fork seal, he had a bruised hand but was ok after a sleep.
June 11, 2008 at 12:02 am #55248RadarModeratorGreat shots as ever 247! Tyre warmers??? You flash git. Glad your mates are OK! The Kwack looks well battered! You will have to get some of your lot to post on here, looks like they could tell a few great tales!
June 11, 2008 at 5:44 pm #55249HippoDronesParticipantlol, I wish the tyre warmers were more than just flash, they let me down yet again, I have not even had 1 session from them and they don’t work, well the rear does but the front doesn’t. Reminds me I need to get in touch with M&P bout getting them to replace them!
The kwak is the chaps road bike too so its gonna be a bit more expensive still to get back in order!
June 13, 2008 at 8:02 pm #55250RadarModeratorIs that your new van too, went for another Transit?
June 16, 2008 at 1:11 am #55251HippoDronesParticipantyeah, this one is a low top swb van as opposed to the semi hi-top swb mini bus tho. Has 137,000 miles but is better on fuel and has a stereo, need to clear it out from all the cement dust tho, tis an ex builders van and full of cement powder! :eek: LOL
August 31, 2009 at 10:12 pm #55252HippoDronesParticipantLooks like I’ll not be doing any road trackdays in the near future, well not till I’ve sorted out a supermoto. With the GSX-R for sale I think it would be foolish to track it again.
This track is too fast for most SM’s so it looks like I’ll be heading to Cadwell or a go-cart cct for my next day. I can’t wait, I really love the involving ccts, Rockingham was horrid IMO, and having spoken to some mates they think the same (international cct) the inner track there is meant to be better but I don’t think I’ll go back unless a few mates are going too.
I’d love to do Brands on whatever moto I get but it is a fast cct and have seen SM’s go pop after a few sessions there. They have a “supermoto” track too but from reports on 17″s they say it is awfull, badley laid out, and run by nazis who wont allow overtaking, so think I’ll not bother with that unless they improve it. Its a shame because the rally course they have there would be ace but they don’t include that on the SM track - AuthorPosts
