Had a great time at the ring at the weekend. HSV was the nuts and was well received by the ring crowd gaining few looks etc.. here is vid that was taken following some mates on their bikes, max speed was 150 down flug platz and home straight most other fast bits got just past 130 mark due to gradient and the 3 passengers!!.Enjoy.

thats great,

I love the fact that you have 3 passengers (probably luggage in the boot) aircon running and still keep up with the bikes.

but your camera man must have arms like a girl, I was getting seasick by halfway round

She was a girl my mates missus 5ft 3", funny as anything she had to hold camera approx shoulder height to see out of screen!!!! and with the forces caused by track it was hard work for her to keep video on track, the bikes were going slower than normal we normally circle track ,bridge to gantry in 8.30 but said they would do slower one so we could video and so the wifes etc could see their other halves at play.

Correct Iron Maiden-Revelations and the dance one was Nightcrawlers-Surrender Your Love

Glad you enjoyed the video,
The weekend was busy as it was the German truck Grandprix bit, place was deserted 530pm to 7pm, was like my own private road!!!!!!!!!

Congrats on the forthcoming wedding. As for venues for the honeymoon, I understand the beaches at Wortec and LSV are particularly nice at that time of year!
