busabeast Posted May 3, 2024 Share Posted May 3, 2024 It's been slightly misty but not bad, but I've not had the best start, it's pissing out oil somewhere and I didn't realise and it coated the rear tyre and yeah I've ended up binning it.... not much damage apart from the front brake lever guard and rear tyre needs replacing. Apart from that all is good, I've hurt my thumb and right shoulder is very sore. Now just need to investigate this oil leak and fix that before I decide to do another day 2 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even more so because you've just had a new addition to the family. One thing I'll say, and it's up to you if you take it on board! I've always believed in fate, and that things happen for a reason. I'd take this as a warning and seriously think whether you should continue to do this trackday stuff. If you were my age then the pressure isn't so much.......after all, the words "Life in Prison" doesn't exactly put the fear of God into us these days. Your circumstances are very different......so I'd think long and hard about it. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's only cosmetic damage bar the oil leak, which I now believe was there before today as it tried spitting me off at the exit of gerards at the start of the 2nd lap then at the hairpin it was skipping and jumping about just trying to slow down then it did it again slowing down for gerards. But shit happens, I'll get it patched up and get out on another in due course 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it must be on track as that's where you boasted your prowess. Also the off was caused by an oil leak on to the rear tyre. Not many people wouldn't have come off due to this 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
