Same happened to me last PCRA round last weekend. It will be crazy on the Saturday morning.
We need to get the gates open early on Saturday, 1/2 an hour to set up and join the queue for scrutineerng is not enough time

Pretty much the reason I couldn't be bothered to enter. It's always a shit fight to get there and scrutineered and get ready. Then usually after a few helicopters come and go during the racing.
As of Wednesday they needed 4 more entries just to cut even
4 rounds next year
3 @ EC including the 4hr in July
1 @ WP in April

Im keen as still, we'll just have to get bikes scrutineered, get them on warmers Avd set the rest up once racing starts. Not ideal but at least we're racing

So round 5 of the BEARS Nationals - F5 ...
1 win 3 2nds ...
BUT TMA 1 2nd 3 Wins ...
The old bloke was on fire particularly on the first lap. In the first race I battled with TMA and Dean and used Franki HP rather than the Fat Blokes skill to come out on top ... lots of redline including in top when slipstreaming so dropped a tooth on the rear for the next 3 legs.
Race 2 fluffed the start and got stuck behind one of the JNRs and a polite MB this allowed Dean and Cosi on lap 2 to come at me. After Cosi took off, Dean and I a bit of a tussel while closing on TMA, By lap 4 1/2 I was clear of Dean and on TMA but couldn't convert (including missing an up change on the final run to the flag... maybe - maybe not)
Race 3 on Sunday saw a double crash on turn 1 off the start 1 down and then 2 hit missing the bike (and maybe 5 on the grass) - stuffed me up for the restart and I ended up in an epic battle with Simon, Andy, Joey and Dean - video coming TMA was just gone by the time I had cleared these 4
Race 4 was a repeat of 3 except not as epic (for me)
Race 5 was going to be damp so was planning to give Rat Bear a run unfortunatily too many delays (Red Flags - thats you Richard) meant we didn't go
Loved the Racing - Frank N'Cati is coming good but still has an annoying stutter off some right hand corners - seems to help if we run extra fuel
"Pissed off" at Fat Bloke for letting the points get away and for using HP not skill - TMA has to finish 2nd or better in 4 races at Broadford to get another F5 Championship while I have to win 4...
SteveJ - you missed out .... was good
What a tops weekend,apart from few injuries (heal up quick guys) but fun and pretty well run.
A PB for me in Quali so stoked with that.
Bring on FX in 3 weeks!!!!!!!

I was behind both riders when that happened... from that angle, it looks bad for the rider on the outside but it wasn't exactly the case. I might even have the whole thing on video if I haven't deleted yet.
Nothing like pulling into the pits to an applause like this.

Would the secret handshake unlock it??
Only if I knew it...
For me coming from pretty slow 41s key is (I think) keeping on the ripple strip for longer I’ve watched Owen’s and some of Steve Ms clips, while I’m not at that level definitely longer actually on the ripple strip shoukd help.
???
Here the actual Quali session

Sounds like it was almost like what you did to me in Warm up... hence why I was yelling at you on the way in. 'Almost' because our bikes actually touched.
Now, being that it happened after I overtook you on the inside into T6 and you decided to do a kamikaze move around the outside during WARM UP to say I was a bit pissed is an understatement (did I mention it was warm up and not a race??). Thankfully, wiser and calmer people talked me out of confronting you about it. There really wasn't anything to be gained by doing that. But it was the shittiest of the shittiest move, mate...
As for the footage, I'll have a look. I deleted a ton of stuff 'cause my card was nearly full and I needed it for other things.
Ps: It's not my place and I don't really like to do this especially given my skill level but... if I can give you ONE advice, it's focus more on overtaking and less on avoiding being overtaken. You're WAY too aggressive when you get overtaken. More so than anyone else I have ever been on track with and that will end badly at some stage. I honestly hope I'm wrong but not as much as I hope I'm not involved when things do go wrong.
I wish you did come and have "your 2 cents" ... I'm an understanding kinda fella ... If you explained to me the situation at hand on the day and said what had transpired and said I was wrong, or what ever etc, I'd have said sorry in no time flat.
Unlike other cunts that cut fellow riders off an not give a shit.
anyway, end of story ... what's done is done.
I don't have a reply to your story on our situation as I don't know where you were on track when it happened, that's why I was shaking my head because I couldn't hear what you were saying.
next time at the track, feel free to come talk to me mate.

Nah... like I said, nothing good would have come from it. Imagine how angry you got and that was during a proper race...
