    Yeah I need to get my suspension sorted out, next track day will let them look at it, suspension set up is a black art to me lol...
    Still manged to beat my best lap by 3s, should be better once i get the fuelling correct (was runnnig Rich and used way to much fuel) and the suspension sorted,

    I got low light come on twice, a quick dive into pits for a top up sorted that :D

    Good point about Mallory & Rockingham. There's also that one at Gainsborough. Even Croft is about the same distance (for me at least) as Silverstone.
    Another possible idea could be to ride with warmers in a rucksack to one of the tracks with power, that way we can pre arrange to hire paddock stands from tyre support or put the feelers out to borrow from a forum member.


    I have that problem too :D


    You sussed the lap timer then ;)
    I found a more discrete place to mount my Qstartz receiver now. Knocked another 2 sec off at Cadwell now I'm starting to get my knee down a bit more, still struggling with the right though. Managed a toe slider at Park and nearly pulled my foot off :eek:

    I'm sure that the track support guys could sort the baffle if needs be.
    I'll book Cadwell tomorrow as I wanted to do an OPL this year, plus it completes my new years resolutions :D

    You must be leading the inters as would have thought that you would have been in the advanced/fast group on your new R1.
