    This seemed like a great idea. As someone familiar with Barber I could see those that were adjusting throughout the day. I imagine the slow lap was real valuable to them. For myself at a strange track a slow lap would be huge for my confidence.



    Seems like a great idea for comfort and safety I hope it is continued.

    It really is a good idea. Gives you a chance to notice the track surroundings, particularly those areas you really want to avoid.

    Sheep, how was your weekend? I saw you at the rider's meeting Sun. That wasn't your RC51 "wadded" up I saw at the tech line was it???

    Nope I had a great weekend my fastest times ever and only one graze :oops: But just up through the grass. Did need a new timer though as mine died (got fixed up quick by Mark).



    You should have stopped by and said hi.

    I should have, but I was having a little issue with my 750 in the morning. Got it working good, and had fun in the afternoon. I lowered my best time by 2 seconds. When are you going back?
