    No I'm dropping the bike off or Jerez on Sat so it's just too close should the worst happen.

    Was it a 2012 onwards 10R? They are meant to have gearboxes made of cheese.

    Yeah your right, didn't help that i didn't have much of a clue of where i was going:p Although on 2 occasions i did max it to the limiter in 6th, which must be at least 165 with this gearing:D

    New tyre and frame of mind for next week and I've even had Bullet from TDR give me some coaching:)

    Dude, all that money you've spent on the bike, work in the gym and time going to Snet ect and your running shot tyres.... Will bite ya mate trust me.

    I pushed my luck on a rear i knew was past its best as i thought id get one more session and change it then and we all know how that panned out! :(

    Learnt my lesson. Most important thing on the bike is tyres.... Then suspension to get the most from the tyres!!!

    In contrast, I had a great day.
    1st time out on the track Blade and the Honda! performed brilliantly ;) Unlike me, who needed more tuition from Rocket Man in the afternoon as I'm just too stiff on the bike.

    Roll on the next track day TBC.
    In the mean time, here's our garage for the day.

    I love Snetterton, never forget being told I'd turned up on a tractor with my BT023 after being diverted down some Fenland dirt track due to bridge being closed.

    Shame its so far from Manchester but great on a hot summers day which luckily I've had a few times
