Pretty damn good, I must say. Was able to keep up with most sports 600's on the straights if I tucked right in. Could be because I weight nothing. The pegs are a little too low. After the first 3 sessions I was scraping them a bit, and in the last 2 sessions they were down alone with my knee in every corner.

The track was Silverstone national. It's only little, so easy to learn and I'd highly reccommend it. Even though it includes the piddly last chicane. It's the grey line on the below page.

The day was only £99 with Hottrax and I can't fault them or the silverstone staff at all. Very safety conscious and a very well organised day. Thumbs Up

My license is, but my bike puts out a little more than that. Strictly on the track you understand.

MotorSport vision and Foccuessed events won't let you out on a restricted license. Sad

I could just about manage both sides on the road in normal riding and roundabouts were easy. First time I've ever managed pegs down though.

Looks much worse like that. Nothing worse than cheesy/tacky photoshop selective colouring.

Pics in the first thread are really good though, who took them?

Damn, I knew there was a hint considering on your video in MS your Hornet accelerates much faster!

Blue is faster, you just cheated Crying or Very sad

Mind you I've got a few friends that have said they'll take the restrictors out... Meh. It's all good fun. I'm not fussed about top speed, I just want the acceleration.
