    You dont have to be signed in to get the app form bro, so give it a try..

    Also, you wont be too late - the last i heard they were thinking of canceling it as not enough riders :(

    Just a quick update from megawatt, he is loving Snettertton says the track is awesome and so is the company (Nutty Tart)

    He feels that he is getting quicker in his old age lol however his crash bung decided it was going to fly off down the straight today leaving the thread from the bolt in the engine so will need drilling out. However he has said he is happy to run the bike as is for now.

    He appear to have been locked out of the forum at the mo so asked me to update, am sure we will get a full update with pics when they are back.

    Well, got back from Snett at 2100 yesterday. WOW, what a fantastic 2 days. 24degrees on Wednesday and 26 yesterday. Had the coolbox plugged in our garage, great food , beer and company. Managed to overtake a few people in novices class and nearly got rid of the chicken strips on my new Michelin Pilot Tour rear and nearly destroyed the pilot power on the front. Had a moment in the 3rd session when some tvat overtook me at Corum with only a 2ft gap and then whilst nailing it on the pit straight, something glanced off my right knee. I looked down at 120mph and the crash bung had disappeared!!! This unsettled me for the rest of that session and when I pulled in it was worse! The right hand top rear engine bolt had sheared off!!! We did find the R&G and the bolt, but I will be spending some time removing the broken stud from the engine! Here's a few pix;
