It was indeed a cracking day, excellent weather as always at this event, and Zorded`s sprinting debut was a great effort with very decent times. He even managed the often thought impossible, of spinning the rear wheel and wheelying at the same time!
Nice one Al, hats off to you `cos you certainly gave it everything and still rode the bike home afterwards.
Great pics Adam, nice to meet you and all the others, and thanks for photoshopping my beer (cake) gut for me to make it look smaller for once.
Those really are top pics, so i hope you can make more events to capture a few more for us, going to Santa Pod by any chance?
To be pedantic, the times were:
1st: GSXR1000 7.09 secs @ 114mph
2nd: Slim Z1R 7.12 secs @ 109mph
3rd: No Fear Mike 7.46 secs @ 102mph
4th: Al 'give it death' Zorded 7.74 secs @ 93mph
My excuse is i was getting a lot of wheelspin in 1st 2nd and sometimes 3rd! But not quite as much as the sidecar outfit that was spinning the lengh of the track on every run!
And as for the monkey bike, why? Why the hell not? I know the guy, and he is really into his monkey bikes, this one if you look closely even had the forks raked and a longer swingarm! It had a 125cc engine with a bigger carb, and he may even fit wheelie bars for next year!
It`s guys like that that make these such fun events, if that`s what he loves doing then fair play to him. He even took the bike there in the back of his 1980`s Mazda pick up truck, which just happened to be lowered on air suspension and have a 6.2 litre Chevy V8 in it, so he obviously isn`t a conformist, top man i say!
