Did my 3rd meet last weekend and had a ball! The bike had engine rebuilt and tuned, thanx to Rowan of GMS in Swansea. Bike was stupidly quick all weekend. Qualified 17th and finished 16th in final in pissing down rain with a lap time of 1:17. Well chuffed with that!!

Sunday I ran dry rear and wet front duw to drying lines, BIG mistake, lost the back end at hatchetts hairpin on 5th lap and binned it!!
Result being last on grid for final. Still managed to get a 1:13.47 lap in the final. Getting quicker but suspension needs sorting now to find at least 4 seconds more (and bigger balls :smt003 )

Thanks to ZIMM for being my pit bitch for the weekend, hope you enjoyed M8. Also thanx for the Ambulance duties for Richie.
