donington park trackday on .............another type of bike

[sadlonelygit]

anyone care to guess best lap for a 50+ overweight, unfit bloke on a 13 yo misfiring gsxr600 with shagged tyres and thrown together suspension and not been ridden for over a year!
closest guess wins some of the chewed up rubber off the rear tyre 

[slappy]

Which circuit, National or GP?

[sadlonelygit]

gp.........national is for poofs

[slappy]

Ok, I will guess at  1 minute  56 seconds.

1:59 (or 2:10 if the tyres really were fecced)

1:59 (or 2:10 if the tyres really were fecced)

ever seen a 1/2 slick supercorsa...........never ridden there before and had no idea it's a tyre killing track.

[Frosties]

I'm going for 2:06.037 at best

[unfazed]

I would say a 2:08.03 anyone under 2 would have to be a racer or one hell of a track day rider.

[sadlonelygit]

should be up now

steady eddie laps of 1'58 - 2'02. best lap was in session 4 and was 1'56.5 according to my timer app

not too shabby for 1st time there and a few problems.

the vid shows where improvements could be made, old hairpin, s's and goddards. but most importantly i had fun...............and was quicker than my mate on his 1000

[joebloggs]

Great track, loved redgate through to Mcleans but never once got coppice right, over braked and wobbled around the first part every lap spending the rest of the lap playing catchup only to fluff it again come coppice

[unfazed]

1'56.5  nice one, one hell of a track day rider then 

Hope to be going there next May/June with my sons

[sadlonelygit]

just editing the 'excursion' video now, so not that good a rider........faster than some, slower than others

Modest as ever I see

[BBROWN1664]

My guess wasn't too bad then.

[sadlonelygit]

not my finest moment from yesterday

[unfazed]

Interesting line indeed at coppice

Ok, I will guess at  1 minute  56 seconds.

So far I was the nearest, where`s me rubber then
