Elbows down on both T4 and 5... respect.
I had no drama wearing pink (real men can wear pink ) but I told Saint George I thought It was a great idea IMO, and they had been getting feed back from all grades of riders that was on the same lines.
Only thing I would change is the design, pinning and taping it for riding at speed was not ideal, but still not a pain to live with.

pink practice was soooo shit, but good that i got more track time. Mr saad doing 36s on his bmw vs newbies on very slow 300s or 450mx/gp conversions. went 5 wide into t10 and then had an ape go slicing underneath me over the curbs. interesting

Seemed silly to me as well
Would have been better to give you all a practice start ... one row at a time Fastest (ie 1000, 600, 300) to Slowest
BTW see this DSC_5156.JPG from http://darrylbphotography.blogspot.com.au/
Have to agree with the pink practice. Practice starts would have been good. Didnt mind the idea of wearing a vest but they sure did excel with their colour choice.
hahaha dont know if the colour choice was a statement or a coincidence

Great weekend racing! Bike felt good... Managed another trophy!! Which is the only reason I raced.. 3rd place c grade in BEARs .. Second race meet.. And a new pb. 1.41.32.. Successful weekend all round
Great weekend and a very well run meeting.
Saturday could not of gone any better in 600 Clubsport. Sunday started off perfectly, but my clutch completely went in the second race off the start resulting in last place.
Thankfully heaps of people came to help me change it over, as I would never have done it in time.
Started last, but managed to get the win.
Thanks again to all the flaggies and officials.
Pic of the clutch that came out, compared to a brand new one.
AHHAAHHAA!! It's still good, it's still good

Marshy your so right about Carl and the vest in some weird way it works quite well with his colours........ Must admit im glad I wear a dark tint visor when looking at his bike and him together ! haha you should see him when hes wearing his flouro sunnies and headphones hahaha
Had a great weekends racing, not bad for several months off the bike only downer was the steering damper failing on Sat practice.. made for interesting racing and sore arms..but a giggle was had got some good times in for me too
Yeh penko... decided to pass you over the finish line on the last lap after your clutch blew... sorry bud :P and yes for some reason the pink vest blends in well... 3rd place in clubsport D grade is pretty nice too.

Couple of interesting observations from my non racing attendance as radiator water scrutineer and flaggy.
# Plenty of bikes were short of water in radiator and some radiators I could not even with the 150mm pick up tube reach water
# Water ranged from clean like Marshy to never flushed brown soup - plus some green - and yes I see the irony in my task!
# Numbers. White background and black numbers easy to read while other combinations suck and triple digit numbers really suck
# Hard to read numbers and colour combinations caused problems on T4 during practice/qualifying to when to signal riders to exit T4
# Some riders hand signaled to exit T4 early practice & qualifying. Also in racing some back markers exited on Lap 4 - assume riders briefing still said this is a no no. Running up the rear of other bikes I'm sure if I could remember would be unpleasant.
Finally Helmet Cameras. Michael Schumacher if he could would advise against it I reckon. Helmets may not work as well if you whack a lump on it...
big double thumbs up Bagger , 23 yrs on and you still got it tucked up inside that melon of yours ,
i mentioned your name to some older gents 2 weeks ago and they both said the same thing , the farkin same thing to the letter
and to theink someone here is spending a zillion on there RSV4 and yours is still stock , ha ha ha
That's a question for those a bit more in the know. My track bike has obviously previously run standard water so there is significant oxide build up in the cooling system. Any way of cleaning it? I can flush it all day to rince as much out as possible but fill it with demineralised water and 2 days later it'll be back to reasonably brown coloured. There some kind of additive to use during just straight flushes to try and get more of it out?
