Well I'm just back from the Colerne Sprint, the third sprint that I have competed in this year. My improvements in times were encouraging:
Practice Runs 1) 105.51 2) 99.02 Competition 1) 103.22 (stuck piston on dump valve slowed me down, replaced for next run.) 2) 97.92. A big thanks to Don Norchi for all the support in replacing the piston and fitments , helping me change a set of tyres when the going got drier and the general driving advice which was invaluable. It was nice to meet Hamish, Natalie and their son for a chat and to see Hamish compete in his Jedi!
