Starting to watch the weather now, I have a set of slicks, the same ones that did last November's Teesside trackday, and a pretty old set of
888s. So if it rains, I shall be sat in the cafe.

Just out to pack the slicks...

What's happened? is that a bit of Fireblade lying on the deck? Water? Is it not fixable at the circuit with a part? (That maybe someone has
lying about...)

That is unfortunately the corner of my sump together with the plug, and 4ish litres of your finest Millers ZSS 10W/40...
Not really fixable today or tomorrow!
Oh well, was going to order a shortened sump anyway so thats just accelerated the process. I've already paid for the trackday if anyone local
wants to take my place?

Got to admit the day was one of the best we've been to. Having sorted out the geometry of the Indy it now handles better than it ever has.
When I get some video footage; of which we have about 2 hours I'll upload it. Until then I'll sort out the 185 pictures we took!
It was really great to see lots of old faces and quite a few new ones - as soon as the video and pictures are uploaded I'll post!!!

I think you'll find that the passenger was holding his head on, due to the enormous cornering forces generated by taking that line.
Cheers

In defence of my terrible driving, I'm a terrible driver.......
I'd like to say that I took that line as it was the best line for the set-up of my car. But in reality, it was that line or the pit
wall.......
And my passenger, Trev Borg, was recovering from a skiing accident and I promised I would go steady. He was trying to stop his head from rolling off
his shoulders.
