[Lucky 85]

Guys had a great day with a few .moments and one dissapointing event for one of our own. Hope he gets better soon. Thanks RooBoy for organising the day and then having us over to your place for a BBQ.
Learnt heaps today and I now have a new found respect .for anyone who rides track. It was great not to be looking in your mirrors for the .
Met some new people and caught up with some old friends. Until next time stay safe.

Roo Boy Thanks for organizing for the booking & the BBQ etc for the Track Day it was an eye opener and I learnt heaps so thanks very much

It was great to meet up with some old faces and meet a heap of new people that enjoy the same passion as us 2 wheels and different makes and models out on the track made it even more enjoyable I especially liked the part when just about every Busa passed the new ZX14 and was even funnier when he mentioned to me that he'd been passed by every other Busa on the Track.

Anyway for me I reckon I could still get more out of group 1 just to put everything into practice a few more time before heading up into the faster groups and I can certainly see why so many of you have track bikes and why you all enjoy them so much.

So to all that when I had a ball and can't believe that the weather held out like it did that rain last night was very heavy but once again thanks to everyone that went and made it so enjoyable. Roo Boy thanks once again and one last person HPM for taking the Photos looking forward to seeing them..

Until Next time there will be a next time enjoy the memory and stay safe..

See you all up there. I'm helping out Trakdayz for the day and will be on the Gixxer. For those riding up, you can fill up at the BP at the end of the fwy. Turn left at the end of the fwy.

We were talking about Saturday (i.e. today), what day did you have in mind?

I'm obviously not very good with dates. Some of you may remember the first Busa run down South where I turned up a day early. Well, for the track day, I turned up ............. Spewing. Could have had the track to myself though.

Who binned it. Are they all right. How's the bike. Possibly Andy????

+10 for guessing Andy

I had a great day in group 1 and picked up some great cornering tips. Good to put some faces to names. Thanks HPM for the advice on body position (too upright). I hopefully did a better job on the last session.

Hayabusavich, mate what a blast on that last session and thanks for the feedback on track position.

Thanks Rooboy for organising this

I might have to buy a track bike now.

Yes a great day was had by all but I'm sore as hell today throwing the Busa around Barbs is hard work next time I'll take the GIXXER RockDBUSA mate that was fun but on a sad note no film was taken from the rear gopro but the front one got some good footage thanks to RooBoy once again for organizing the day HPM for making us look fast lets do it again soon.

Cheers Rev004

WOW, what a great day and well worth the money I learnt heaps and will be a better rider on the road due to this. It was the best fun I have had on two wheels without worrying about losing my license, ha ha. Great to catch up with some club mates and put a face to one (Martin) really feel for Andy though thats about the worst scenario for anyone but hopefully he will be OK in a month or so? the bike? thats gone to Busa Heaven I think? could become a good tracky though?!Thanks all of you guys especially RooBoy and sorry for not being at the BBQ but as the arrangements had changed so many times around your surgery dates I had made others. Great pics HPM well done. HMMM track bike? I will be up for another session. Bartman

Rev004 - Turn 7 was when the rain started to come down and I didn't want to risk my kit. Sorry mate!
