I won a place too, can't wait! Anyone else coming for a play in the "advanced" group?

It's done, he'd have to win more than half the remaining races realistically and he hasn't done that in over a decade. He'll close up but Marquez has pretty much got it in my opinion

I'll keep an eye out for any dampers that come up for sale

Cheers fella, much appreciated

Cheers for the suggestions guys, the hyperpro one was one I've looked at so maybe that's the one to go with, it's roughly the right price but didn't know anyone who's used one (until now). GPR are meant to be the dogs wotsit but I can't afford that, kwacky the one you sent is about on point £ wise!

Hey guys, I'm racing a CBR600 and keep getting headshakes when I'm really pushing on, I think a steering damper will help but don't want to bankrupt myself in the process of buying one. Anyone got any recommendations for a reasonably priced, decent quality unit?

Ah I may see you anyway then as I'm going to be doing EMRA and maybe thundersport later in the year

No worries, hopefully see you at another day as those shots are great!

Hi Jack, you've got some great pics there! I don't suppose you got any of me at all did you? Fast group, red bike #3 on it?

Great to meet you steveo, shame you couldn't get the bike sorted for the last couple of sessions, you where looking great in the sessions I watched you. Likewise it's always nice to put a face to someone, and yes bit gutted I couldn't go back out but second look at the bike it doesn't look too bad ...

I just missed all of you (except d6nutz), been a good day though despite an early finish with mechanical gremlins. Shame, was just starting to find my groove lol

Yep, I'm on an old 600f in black and yellow. Will have a hire transit with a big fook off 4 on the side and a stupidly large green gazebo, should be fairly easy to spot (blush). @perkles do you want to pm me your mobile number, and I'll text you when I get there? There's plenty of space for 2 bikes...

Mines a road going green 014 zx10 ,I think d6nutz is on a yellow cbr600 steely The only part I struggle with is Devils ,I need to be more confident down there and open the taps a bit earlier ! I'll keep an eye out - I'm on a red cbr600f, not steelie though, pre-injection bike it is. Got white/black...

I'd be happy to mate, I've been round there a million and one times so if I can help I will. What bikes am I looking for?

I'm booked in - Is anyone else coming to play in the fast group??

Angelsey for me, before I went there I'd have voted for either Donington or Mallory, but the first half of that track is so damned fast! If you get the 3 consecutive right handers just right you can take the last one flat in 5th and leave a nice black line - incidentally that's also my memorable mom...

The thing I always remember for this is imagine trying to headbutt the mirrors, you won't be far wrong then!

It's the 1990s all over again

Funny, I did the exact same thing! Spent too long on it already mind you

Hi Jack, do you mean riding? If so what class or classes do you run?

Yeah I should be, trying to run the full season either at Darley Moor or EMRA (Mallory Park). With a bit of practice/set up should do alright hopefully! And also lose the vest of course!

Cheers kwacky it's good to be back! And thanks, amazing what a bit of anger can do sometimes lol!
Yeah I think I was parked the other end of the world that day, Might as well have set up at home
