Good news....booked the time off work.
Bad news....I need to sort out the charging issue on the NC29 or the front brake issue on the ZX7R before I book. Can't use the GSXR as it has a full Akra race system and no original.

Should get the 400 sorted in time though.

Whatever happens, I'll be there.

Me and Perkles at Donny a few years back. No one will beat that. People were aquaplaning. I got told off by an instructor for flying past him on a slow down lap :D

When we did Donny, the Melbourne Hairpin had a 15ft wide stream cascading over it (tmi)

I would encourage anyone who takes a bike to a track day in a van to invest in wets on wheels. It can rain as hard as it likes....I can guarantee you'll still have a grin from ear to ear!

I have ridden on wets and like you say they are amazing. Even a good set of road tyres are good. What was not amazing was having wet under crackers and feeling like I had generally been through a washing machine.
