Thanks for the offer Tony, that is extremely generous of you.
I do have the no9 and ZX7r available to me (With friends 3TJ and NC30 in my garage too) so all is not lost. I am going to get some time and strip it down and the race bike will be born again...and perhaps this time I will make it more of a good looking motor!!
I expect to have something sorted soon enough..

Feel bad about the engine dude, but on the other hand at least your next engine will be a sorted one from the parts you have been buying.
Have you had chance to look at the gps results yet? Would be interested to know your corner speeds etc for me to learn from.

Loving the advert at the end!
That vid shows how busy and crap the inters group were and also how bloody rapid your bike is mate! You should have nailed me earlier but then I suppose the unwashed would not get to see the pretend skills of a big dude on a small bike (RIP)
@ James - Aye, checking the GPS now - I'll send the details to you so you can run the jobby yourself and see how it looks. I did a back to back of your fastest vs my fastest and from that I can see you have a far nicer line through mountain so I can gain time there which is a good thing to see!

The advert, that's Micks doing.
My bike is quick for a shitter, seems a shame to replace it with a '30, doesn't it?
I could have gone off earlier but thought i'd get a couple of laps behind with the camera. I have another one when Mick gets round to uploading it, has a few more laps of you on it I think.

Don't replace it...you'll miss it, but you would probably benefit form some time on a slower bike to give you the conservation of momentum option.
Get a bike ready for no Budget Cup - let's have a crack on it next year...

I think I definately need some practice on something slower, I know I brake too much for most corners then rely on power to fire me out!!
I fancy the budget cup but will need to have a serious chat about it.

Hey Geoff, going by the vid you need to move up to fast as you are killing everyone in inters.
The 400 is hard work as you get kicked down the straights and have to make all your time up in the twisties. I was getting blown down park straight but finding i was still at full throttle as i went back past bikes braking for park, i just remembered you saying leave it on the stop till well after the crest and past i went.

Nice one, think it shows everyone what we mean by the oil spill! Just about every breaking point and corner entry was covered in oil and cement dust in that session.

Wish we had have fiited it to my bike when Mike was on it, would have given us some good pointers as he was off really fast on it! When he came back in he basically told me to get my arse into gear and went alot faster in the last session.
