but that was from the 10th row so fairly happy.That ride out at Cadwell stirred the old fire and it was such an enjoyable experience. I was surprised at how nimble and "flickable " it was through the chicane and Gooseneck (my last time on a race track was on a TZ350 with a Spondon Ally frame which I used to race with some success when it behaved).mj43 wrote:Thanks for organising the day.
Had a great time. Henry the Derby Phoenix chief Scrute was out on the KR in the Inters last time he was on track was 24 years ago. I was in the novice group so KR was out in both groups.
We had to run it in in the morning so it wasn't really up to speed until the afternoon.
Had a cracking dice with Rocket (Mark Stephenson) in one session. His KR was flying and not much between the two bikes. Unfortunately his bike stopped (reason unknown) in a later session.
Little bike did well running 40 minutes in the hour it was like an endurance race. Henry would come in we would pop the fuel cap open , re-fuel, Henry jumps off I get on and the bike goes straight out.
Bike then did 4 races Saturday/Sunday with Flute on board taking 4 F250 wins before I hopped on for the last race. Only managed second though
Get some pictures up and get your license application off Henry!HenryTechTZ350 wrote:That ride out at Cadwell stirred the old fire and it was such an enjoyable experience.

Thanks to Mark letting me out on his bike, I am now the proud owner of a KR-1S! I'll be there for the SATT day in 2012 if it goes ahead. Can't wait... who knows I might even re-apply for an ACU licence and do some Derby Phoenix events.
Well that was untill I tagged along to the back of Mark Jordan, that think is a missile!
