So, a quick report about this trip.
FUCKING EPIC!
Such a good track. Pretty much every corner is a good one and the hills make it interesting. Facilities good, big garages altho TDO's only get to hire a few. No walls between garages, very soviet, long "hall" like caged effect. Da.
Things started off pretty well for all 4 of us - ironside blade, Neil zx10 and X X. In short,
- The track is epic. Fast sweeping corners, lots of fast esses, great weather.
- ironside had issues with gear selected shaft. This issue got worse. Some macgyvering helped, then broke real good. A hammer may or may not have helped the situation.
- X came off X. totalled. sprained wrist. X is ok.
- my clutch was slipping pretty bad on day two. After some thought and discussion with X we arranged for me to borrow the X clutch.
- Day 2 arvo was spent making a castle nut tool for STM slipper clutch nut with ironsides extremely dangerous angle grinder. Thanks again, but its fucking dangerous!
- Day 3 was X spectating, ironside continuing to solve the issue, somewhat successfully but not officially and ended up taking the ol' cbr for a slow spin, coaching the hopeless.
- Neil the bastard had a trip full of PB's.
[EDIT - We got pretty good at side cover fitting. ]
Some pics to come.
