    I'm going to try and stay on the black stuff if I can. Last St George meet was my first one in 24 years, i'm still spinning out i'm even out there. 1.34's around the GP track is an overall racing goal. I wouldn't mind doing the 4 hour this year and definately get down to the Island, maybe that August meet , it would be cool if a few of us head down there. I'm just loving the fact i'm out there.Longer term, The absolute icing on the cake would be to get the chance to race at Bathurst again, (1988 was the last time)then I could grow old happy one day.

    Although please don't ask me about right handers.... my right knee slider is always pristine - until I swap it to the left leg and put the very worn one on the right! Just don't tell anyone, ok?
    I find crashing on old 9 then T5 evened up a set of sliders nicely, now they both have wear
    Looking at the photos I just don't get my ass off the seat. Compare me to to the other rider and I'm right up on the tank and practically square on the seat. Then there's my upper body being crossed up.

    I'm actually considering spending half a day down in green taking it slow. I'll definitely hit you up if your about next track day, going to take a bit to fix up this cluster fuck though lol

    Put your armpit on the petrol cap and your head where the wing mirror would be.
    That should get you going on a good body position.

    This is awesome! So glad you're still going at it mate. Really hope I'm doing half as well in years to come.
    See you out there!

    Yeah I always gesture toward putting my chin over my forearm, seems to get things in line.
    Also, don't ride the bike around the corners, drag it with you. Like pretending you can fly and you're carrying this thing through the corners with you. COME ON LIL BIKE LES' GO THIS WAY. Works in my head at least...

    Racing Goals this year - Show the poms how us aussie's do it and get as many rounds under the belt as possible.... AND get at least one podium. Can't speculate on time improvements yet, just really hoping to be competitive.

    Track day goals - get within 10 seconds of slowest moto3 times at GP circuits. (Credit to Sicko's bro for creating this idea!)

    Cool goal man, those Moto3 guys are so much faster than people think hahaha. Track day I did last year there was a young lad with a Moto3 bike whooping everyone.
    Got to keep the trend of Aussies being awesome in the UK rain too!
