    Loved it mate, great track for pre-season, hard work and it has just about everything, all the Spanish racers use it for pre-season, have you been???

    Its hard on tyres and imo to get really really good times you'd have to keep throwing new tyres on but for my first visit I'm happy with a 1:45 dead....

    There not wings mate....

    looking good mate. youve now got to smell the coffee and get back to what you know best, shit weather and narrow tracks.

    How did you get on with the bike, did it live up to your expectations?

    I think he knows that lol; it's just that they stick out further than Pob's ears.

    But in all seriousness; get them tucked away neat and tidy Matt, otherwise there's a chance of someone catching them on track and getting tangled or them getting ripped off when you crash.

    Bike looks mega mate, can't wait to see it at Oulton.

    The Factory Bikes seem to go with the extra long lines, not sure why but there must be s good reason?

    it's to keep the lines cool and the fluid from boiling whilst Matt lays down his blazing hot laps ;)
