Friday Test day
Weather was good, took a few sessions to get going and loosen up. Bike felt good, tweaked the suspension.

Sat
As the powerbike and Ultra grids were so large, there were separate qualifing sessions. It was still a bit cold, and my qualifying mentality needs to change, as I just want to get around and get on the grid, need to push and get up the grid.

PowerBikes Race 1
Got a good start and managed to take a few places, Andy come past me at Mclanes and I managed to keep him in sight for 1/2 lap. Race was red flagged.

PowerBikes Race 1b
Got a crap start, managed to stick it up the inside of 65 going into the chicaine, then got 274 in the same spot a lap later, by this time I was too far behind the rest to catch up.

Ultra Race 1
A full grid, started 33 of 36.
A OK start, but a bit too cautious around redgate and into Hollywoods, saw me loose a few places. Had a great tussle with nos 21 and 75, eventually taking 75, but struggled to make the pass on 21 which saw 75 overtake us both at Coppice.
Manged to take 21 around hollywoods, then chaised down 75, unfortuantly I ran out of laps, and 75 pipped me to the line, finished 22nd in class and 33 on grid.

Ultra Race 2
My fasted lap of race 1 had me starting 29 out of 36,
Got a OK start, stuck with the pack for a lap, they then edged away. I managed to reel in the guy in front, but didn’t have the laps left to take him.
Finished 15th in class and 20th on grid, which was a personal best.

Didn’t race on Sunday, but my race 2 pace would have seen me start 21 out of 36 riders, when I saw that result I was so fired up I was 100% certain that with the riders in front me towing me along, I would have got my 1:15 and would have definitely been working on my race craft right in the thick of it.

As always, watching the videos back I am never happy and can see loads of areas to improve, looking forward to the next round @ Cadwell.
