B19 MC Shakedown Sprint 1st March - RAF Honnington

Post by blacky »

Who's going??

I reckon I will, be good to get back into it :D Plus the test Sprint there last year was actually quite fun and a good course....

From reading the B19 magazine this month they are trying a handicap system where you have to declare your cars power and kerb weight :? :? :? Lots of room for heating me thinks but its just for fun as the results don't count.

No way this could be done as proper rules as how much scope for cheating is there :?: :?: :?: :?:

Oulton on the Weds and this on the Sunday. Good start to a busy season :D

Lots of cones though :o

it was quite a good course on the test day, although there was talk of making it longer / changing it
Small one's are more juicy

2.44km long comprising a roundabout, left & right hand curves, a roundabout and a long straight into a chicane to finish. Smooth tarmac.

Hopefully, no potholes, gravel or puddles :-D

Handicap sounds interesting. Going to be difficult for those who don't know their cars power figures.

Wonder where Logan and Kim (if he does it) will be placed?

Count me out - I will be doing nothing in the Evo and plan to sell ASAP, although I aim to pop along to see others cocking about at NWeald and the like.

Main plan is to run a mate's son in karting. He lives on Jersey so it will be the ultimate fly/drive package...

Got details of ACSMC awards presentation - looks like it will be after their AGM on a Monday night. I won the wrong titles...
AEMC is likely to be the similar. All Circuit is a dinner so I'll have to make do with that.

Will be a shame Kim. Your company on many of the rounds was a pleasure and your competition with Logan was a real highlight for me last year.

I completely understand your reasons though.

Highly entertaining, not only on the track but Kim & Logan watching as the times tumbled :D

Good luck whatever you decide Kim.
