Brands Hatch eve 18th August

No probs with camera's. You can use as many as you like.

And no petrol at track as i understand, have to fill up at local petrol station.

You will need to fill a disclaimer form in for the camera, Just like you do for the bike.

Thats good I have fitted the bike out with the recorder, will test at the weekend for the best place to put the camera. Microphone can go under the seat to keep the wind niose down, it will pick up the engine but not get the wind ... not unless the wind is generated by me


What time you planning to head off Steve ??

I got the confirmation through by email the other day, do I need to do anything else or is it a case of turnig up on the day with my license ...

Hi Fellas

I am 5 miles away from Brands, my sell by date has long been expired to do the event. Bike is too fast and I'm too slow In the earlier years I did the Ring, Jerez, Assen & Phillip Island. Would like to meet up with some of you guys in a supportive roll.
What time does it all kick off?

Mickey the blademaster

Kick off time is around 4pm masterbalde ....

I'm not sure that will work

just checked weather on met office website looks to be dry on monday pm

Checked the weather this morning one min it said wet the next dry.
I just don't think the weather person has a clue whats going on.

Well fingers crossed for

does that mean I can take the cling film off my bike ??

Great evening if a bit damp at times

Look forward to the next one.

shame about the weather mate,i got soaked on the way back,i bet pc`s crying in his garage now,thats if any dirt managed to stick to his bike

Was a good eve track event even if it was wet.
Riding home was the killer as the havens opened did i put the waterproof bottoms on ? NO

Wet pants socks nice just hope the wet pants was due to the rain

Good to see workshy get his lap time down to a 1 min, just wish he could learn to stay on it.





Also thanks to masterblade, jallen, hoho, ed918 for turning up to watch.
Oh yeah hoho it doe's record sound

Thats a point, forgot a pic.

Workshy ought to get a job testing crash helmets for Arai. Seriously though hope you are okay mate

In those picture the weather looks okay. Jollygiant stayed out longest in the second session which was a bit on the damp side.
