Hey chaps,

Thought I'd post a quick time for a benchmark if you will.

1:19:5 - after only about 5 minutes of titting about - had to go out for the weekend now...

I've also got a very nice feeling setup - lots of front end grip, the back stick over the drops, so I'm quite happy.

Providing I don't get ttted out on the first lap I'm hoping to be at least a little competitive...

Oh well, managed to finish which is something suppose.

Am very slow at the moment - probably something to with the fear of overdriving and throwing away a whole race trying to make some time up.

Hence I wasn't in a rush, deducing that I'd potter round safely conserving the tyres, picking up places as people make mistakes.

It seemed to work for the first few laps but it seems everyone is getting very serious and not being particularly 'safe' when trying to get past - I must have been 'nearly' taken out (rescued most thumps up the arse) aboujt 5 or 6 times.

Its annoying to thing we've got this serious - its making it really disappointing to waste an hour practising and then get knocked out ruining a race.

Its getting me to the point I can't be arsed - not being quick at the moment isn't helping, and isn't going to get any better if I'm fearing the first few laps where everyone goes nuts.

Whats's happened chaps?
