Well the mist and fog were all over the mountain this morning, but in the west and norht of the Island, people were enjoying sunshine. the race was delayed and delayed, but eventually started at 3.30. Dave had a good start, first lapin 20.28, then 3/4 of the way round his second lap, they shortened the 3 lap race to 2 laps. We were due to pit for fuel after 2, so no pit stop reqd. Dave finished the race in 27th Place, at an average speed of 110.33, the fastest he had gone all week on the 600. The race is suposed to be for production machines running stock exhausts no powercommanders or engine tuning allowed, but dave said there was a few bikes that were unexpectadly faster than him, at least 10 more moph on the straight!!!!!!!!!!

The winner was shaun harris on a 600 gsxr and he averaged 119 mph. When they dynod his bike at the end of the race at scruteneering, it had rreportadly over 110 rwhp, from a production bike !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! make of it what you will as they let the result stand

Still a top result for us as we think Dave has qualified for another bronze replica. thats 3 this week.......superb

Anyway the senior race is postponed to tomorrow due to the weather

Will psot some pics when the camera battery is recharged.

Do you know Wade Boyd? He is from my neck of the woods, 'Mad Yank' I think is his title over there, colored hair and all. Sounds like a real
amateur effort on the rules infractions. Sorry to hear that. Shaun Harris seemed a bit neagative in the SpeedTV coverage this year.
