yhhh cheers mate but it clashes with whilton

speedy1- 02-17-2008
nice smile.gif . Yeh cheers paul. Jazz i spoke to most riders at whilton this weekend, seems llandow trackday is over rating whilton due to the first british round. Went ok at whilton, really enjoyed the weekend. Had pole, but had overall 3rd not to bad

little mark and scotty did well to biggrin.gif , was a laugh in the lodge to laugh.gif

Guess see you all at llandow mmcwales/smilie_s_32.gif

Jazz_11- 02-17-2008
yup yup yup
cant wait

scotty4321- 02-18-2008
Jazz, For me its 1.5hrs driving instead of 4hrs, £30 instead of £77 and even though Wilton is 2 days there is more track time at Llandow. Going to support the local track, hoping we can get more time there.
If there was someone waving a flag at the start of the session with supers on the front row, proddies on second etc it wouldn't be a mile away.
Whilton was a great weekend though, awesome track/weather, good company.
Learnt a few things:
Racing an aircooled when your heavy and slow is a lonely business.
A bike is only 1 second faster if you have the tyres around the right way (like front on the front etc numpty!!!)
4 stroke bikes drop oil all over the track!
Grass tracking on slicks ain't fun (especially jumping 6" down and up accross an access road)
When you get older you can't take your brain out as easy as when you were 17 or 10!
Minimotos are faster than you think 36.6mph average lap speed for me, over 40mph for proddies like James. Cheers Scotty

Yea Llandow for me if i can make it and i hope i can, Whilton is a race meeting after all, and i thought i was keeping you company scotty haha, with me being a little on the heavie side only a little though haha.

Speed will come mukka, its just a learning curve, all im after is a little fun, and i get plenty of that for me cash smile.gif

take it easy peeps...

Jazz_11- 02-18-2008

c ya there

scotty4321- 02-20-2008
Darren, last time was a great laugh. At one point there must have been about 5 a breast going into the last hairpin. Stick some reeds in that 4.2 and a proddy pipe on and we'll have more fun! I can't stay with your other bikes.
Jaz, I have taken the micky a bit lately so will give it a rest until Llandow. I can't make Sunday anyway but will get the kids to a few Fridays soon.
Lee, It is a lot easier on a decent bike, the first time I was on a polini 910 (smallest bike in the world!) and couldn't stop my feet rubbing. Keep the bike mate, if there are more Llandow days its right on your door step. If you do want to sell the tyres and are going, can you bring them with you?
Going to get my boots sewn up, found a shop in Maindee Newport to add some more leather to the outsides for £5 each. Will be there. Cheers Scotty

Pr][nCe- 02-20-2008
think you should get 4.2 then have some real fun not about power but how brave you are on the brakes if you use um at all lol...

think they can do somit with mine? even the complete vent has gone of me sidi's lol might get another toe slider may last a while longer then. tryed me new falcos, don't like them no ankle suport at all was in agony after 10 laps.

speedy1- 02-21-2008
yeh darren your ankles will bed in with the falcos if you brave enough to take it for few sessions biggrin.gif . The big boots dont give you any flexbility at all unsure.gif

scotty4321- 02-23-2008
Darren,
They look a mess. Will take them in for you if you want.
I bought Falco's for my nipper and thought they looked better boots than Stylmartins. Proper titanium?sliders (that stay on etc) although they do look less supportive. If they bend a bit more then should help get your foot higher on the peg. Thats the trouble I have. I start of with them on OK but the bumps and moving and my unflexible legs just push them back down so by the end of a session they rub like mad on the deck.
Have seen bikes with two pegs on, these must be more comfy as I get sore feet on the outsides although ankles don't hurt.
As for the 4.2 don't think there is any differece in bottom end, only seems to make ground on the longest straight. Cheers Scotty

Pr][nCe- 02-23-2008
yea no flexability james but all the suport you want. got no ankle suport at all with the falcos, and the sole seems to be thiner so you feel every bump on the pegs. will give them another try next time, see how it goes...

will try and get new toe sliders for the sidi will see how that goes if it gives me the protection back i will get them patched up, might last a little longer then smile.gif
