What an awesome race track last night! Smooth, tacky and fast, apron to rim. Congrats to Justin; he had his elbows up every time he went by me (I think it was four..). Good Job by Doug & Dad, taking Greg's hundred after rolling in so late they had to unload out in the mosquito hatchery up in turn two and switch from a wing to a non-wing setup. Good to see the Chain Gang strongly represented; it was actually 4, not 3: me, Doug, Colin Parker and Pat Mead. I had a good dice with Pat early in our heat, proving the old Suzuki can pull off the corners with a more modern R1, but in both the heat and feature fell victim to two correctable errors; a missed setup (too loose in the heat, too tight in the Featch)and driver fatigue. Fixing one will help the other a little; a well-setup car is much less taxing to drive than one you have to fight with massive applications of steering & throttle input, but I still need to get my butt into exercise mode.
Wonder if PitFit has a Senior discount?
