lol.... dunno yet, going to sort van / garage out tonight and hopefully work out what it is tomorrow night.... im away as of sunday and racing 13th sept so if it isn't simple fix that's rocky out the window and prob wont bother rushing it for Silverstone in oct so will have to assess what im doing next year tbh.... could be season over for me fingers crossed though!
Did that a couple of times going in to quick need to scrub a bit more speed off I think you hit it every time as your doing about 30mph where I am doing about 130mph what the picture doesn't show is you riding like an old man on the racing line so I had no choice but to go wide to avoid you
We all miss Apexs thought you were showing Jimbo the right lines you could fit a bus through there least YT new where he was going and before you think it he was running pretty much the same pace as you .lol And here's me and YT showing you how it should be done Ps I notice YT did mention the reason he passed me there But I soon realised he didn't need my help so the gloves were off for the next session
We were squaring it off jase, lining up the guy for the under take on exit.... Ill show you how it's done sometime. Much friendly than the stand up move you like
I've just remembered something. how come nobody (umless I've missed it) has mentioned,in all Mattt's excitement,he missed his session,i blame his pit crew myself
Lol I fogot about that the look on mats face he said to me who's that out now then realised it was his group They were too quick for him which is a first hey Matt
Errr, 'Pit Crew Chief' went for a Piss and thought me Monkey would be safe enough with U lot for 5 mins not to miss his slot! Got back to find me Monkey looking reet pissed off and dejected, but some superlative quick thinking by said 'Crew Chief' got him slid in to the Fast group with the resultant best lap-time of the day with 2mins dead! I thank you!
Lmao, i forgot all about missing my second session, you just don't realise how fast time goes once you finish your session. I was so excited to see Jimbo's lap timer and everyone having the crack.... That said it did me a big favour because it meant i had the chance to go out with the fast group. I followed Scooby out with the determination of staying on his back wheel and all was good for the first few corners. In fact on that first left hander i closed the gap right up but lost it and much more on the approach to Island bend where i closed the gap and further closed it going into Shells. That was that though, he disappeared into the distance. What i found was i was able to match and in some case beat most on corner speed and entry breaking but failed miserably when getting on the power out of the corners... I have much to learn but they really do drag you around in the fast group and its easy to see how you could start dropping serious time if you ran and learnt from the fast boy's regularly.... My pit crew chief, "Jay" who was responsible for getting me out on time for each session will explain in full why he missed my second session
I totally believe this, Mark Marquez missed being called in last year in the Australian GP and was disqualified because his pit crew chief had gone for a piss
Slow in fast out.Is what they call it me thinks I'm too slow in and need to grab them brakes harder.Outwards fine.Working on different things takes time and trackdays. Matt you're almost there if you can catch em on braking but need the bike squared up for the exits.It won't be long, you'll be chomping on their heels in no time.
