Wish I could go, but am due at the other end of the country for the weekend, good luck with the race.
BTW the timing link you gave for BSB is incredibly useful. Cheers.

Your welcome Biggles,I had the times in live mode during the racing and could see who was going to be making moves by the lap times,may sound sad to some but i found it exciting knowing in advance who was winding the wick up to be in the front few come the end.

I did the same on practice day when I got back, sad, and wierdly compulsive. 
The main page was handy beside the track, as I could also get the qualifying positions better on my iphone than over the tannoy, sadly the phone did not work with the live page. I clean forgot about looking on race day.
Good all the same, and I will be tuning in to see the timings for the races I cannot actually make in the flesh.

Just got a text from my mate they won the race today WOO HOO. I didn't go in the end I made an impulse pirchase last night and bought my youngest a new motocross bike so took them to Essex MX instead great day was had untill the youngest was run over by a quad bike they've now been banned from the track. I shit myself when I saw it happen but thankfully he's ok thanks to decent kit, it ran over his head and torso and he's was back to his normal self after an hour or so. I did manage to get him back out for a few laps so the day didn't end on a downer for him, he was aking when he can go agin although refuses to go to any track that allows Quads, roll on next week. On the down side the older two want to race now and were having a good go between themslves more money down the pan.  Anybody want to buy a Honda CRF50 little use and well maintained, also comes with detachable outriggers it is capable of being restricted and should suit someone of 5 up. Need to sell it now, looking for a KTM SX50 LC race bike. PM me. Latest addition to the stable.

Go for it working as pit crew is great fun and will keep you busy whilst learning something new, you'll find your ingenuity pushed to it's limits too, old coke bottle as a front fairing brace anyone.

Just called my mate his wife Samantha Godfrey was racing in the junior race and her and her team won their class and came 5 overall.

 Well done Sam. This is even more of an achievement considering that she suffered a multiple compound fracture of her leg at Pembury tail end of last year and was told she would be in traction for 6 months.
