Thanks Joan  :) yeah a new guy is putting up pics now and doing a nice job . We were lucky with the weather , heavy rain forecast but we only got a couple of showers . Wasn't to cold , the buzzard had a day off other commitments and i went 1 1 2 in the 250s and 3 1 1 in the 125s , so personally a good day  :)

Overall numbers were down but some old faces came back so that was cool. You on for Johnny old ? it will come rd real quick after xmas .

LOL the stutters are not to bad believe it or not  :) there more of a rythum section further apart than stutters. They were to much for one ole mate though who went down the side of them every lap  ::)

The sawdust caught a few out though  ;D when you master it you can make up a lot of time through there  ;)

Or in my case get passed by 250s in the sawdust, yet another thing I need to learn how to do properly if I want to finish closer to the front  :-[. Did you get that fresh stuff put in especially Bill?
 
Those stutters were ok, no way was I taking the other line although it did surprise me to see just where the tyre marks went & how much track was cut in doing it. My understanding was that the track had to be rejoined before the corner not after it though ::)
