89 race report
:saturday morning practice.
first thing in the morning changed out the rear spring again on the 09 try to stop the bike launching me out the seat on the exit of 9, success way better in first practice came back in dave (gp suspension) waved his magic wand over the bike got the backend feeling even better. second practice slight front end push come back in dave and his wand over front end fixed. now all there was left was wait for the races.
open supersport.

first test of the suspension setting on the 09 the scrawny one got a killer start followed for the first lap and managed to out drive him out off 9 . then put my head down again to try and catch Al (o wait I'm dreaming again ) next lap the pit signals are showing I'm starting to gap 3rd place gap keeps growing this time i pay attention to pit wall and cruises to a 2nd place finish.
