I could blip and break with my old throttle tube but I just can't get used to this one. It's not a race it's just a quarter less than my triumph. When I jump on the street with an old stock style throttle tube I can do problem.

But after po going sometimes I went fk this and stopped doing it.

I did notice you pausing a lot when I was talking on Monday down the phone. I could hear your brain think. Wtf has he just said. What do I say. I haven't got a fking clue what he's on about. Just laugh and go yeah quarter to three
I can understand you no problem when I am on the Bluetooth in the car but when I have the phone to my ear it hard to pick up everything you say which is surprising the size of my ears.

Me and mckeann are out on track tomorrow. I think someone is going to get found out. There's no hiding. He talks a good game but I think he's all talk.



He claims he's a huge jaffa fan. Let's see if he can tell the difference from branded and asda ones. No one can. They are the same biscuit.

Just to make things easier, every once in a while, he sticks the phone under his chin so it's like a whisper. I better take some ear plugs on Monday's drive to Oulton

What a great section of track. Up over clay hill and round druids is fantastic!
My favourite bit of Oulton, love Druids corner.

Although I am yet to find a section of track anywhere that comes close to Coppice / Charlie's 1 & 2 at Cadwell.

I have batten burg as well or however you spell it.

I was hoping you'd be bring branded jaffas. I refuse to buy them as they are the same as asda ones.

Where the hell did you buy them from ? Possibly the most inflation proof thing ever.

They aren't biscuits.

I think the only person who couldn't tell a cheap jaffa and a mcvities one is dead.

The most important thing is to brake as smoothly and firmly as possible. If you need to release the brake to blip, or your input on the brake isn't smooth and the front end pogo's then you shouldn't blip.

I don't blip. If you have a slipper clutch then you don't need to. If you don't have a slipper, you just need to be smooth releasing the clutch. If the rear end is skipping or hopping, then just ease the clutch back in
Mine was skipping at anglesey, i put it down to track surface but does that mean i was letting the clutch out to fast?
or the slipper could have been wrongly assembled, or is using stiffer than std clutch springs, has different ramps in it....

Could also be your suspension is allow too much weight transfer and there is a sh7tload of rear rebound which is causing the back end to go light...

what's the bike?

Yeah he went round the outside of me at Duffus and I was like holly fk what the fk was that.

I tried to stick with him. I lasted a corner. I cannot describe just how fking quick he is

I mean he over took me on the straight going into Duffus and the speed he carries is unbelievable

I think he got a 52 second laP. I mean I was doing consistent 60 secs so not exactly novice speed that would probably get you into the back of the fast group but it was like night and day. I nearly crashed watching him. Even if I ditched my road tyres, ran non standard gearing and spent thousands on my suspension I don't think I could stick with him for more than 2 corners.

He needs to start racing.
