Glen, grands prix results, and not :4_17_5: sure of who came where when, but rough guestimate would be that Crooch won the meeting

:daumenhoch: My First Ever Regional Win!!!!

Brilliant day, reallly well run day - no delays apart from the squrmish, Loads of marshals, all VERY noticeable, moto sheets up and off we go.. way to go Peckham.   

Hope they give you a Summer regional on the back of that display.....

Oh and excellent to see the Rat pack back, still a turn of speed in the those legs Tony - you proved that today, Faze 7 boys a pleasure...  Quick Newbies....

A big thanks to all of you today (Kev, Ratty, Crooch, & Magoo) for making me and Dave so welcome today  :4_17_5:.

It was good to meet you and have a go at racing for the first time in at least 25 years.

Probably not the best preparation - finish building a bike on Saturday morning, and the first time I get to use it, I'm racing it !

I have to say it was great mixing it up with the old schoolers, and getting used to the bike. I hope to get over to the Hayes round for some more.

A couple of my mates came to take photos, so I hope to post something up tomorrow.

Excellent shots!

Kev what were you doing....  gotta harness that power big fella

Actually that was nice to see an old school air bourne - trouble was you had trouble keeping it on the ground :LolLolLolLol:

Great to see "Mr Old School" Ratty back on the track.  Also great to see some new blood in OS to fill the gaps left by Paul, Zippy, etc.

Big Kev was pure entertainment.  You looked like you were dying after that first moto but you still went for it every lap.  Sparks will fly with the likes of you and Tony 1-4 in OS this season.

Crooch, you were flying yesterday too fella.  You killed that first moto!

Post by: mr.magoo on January 13, 2009, 06:27 AM
great pics there, airbourne ... Kev and myself (trying to outdo eachother) both jumped that first jump into the first corner in the final, saw the flashes going so hopefully fastlane captured that, pretty much elbow to elbow :smitten:

brilliant days racing, just a shame that everytime i had to hi-low in the corners left leg couldnt deliver the power, but was fine when i could rail 'em, just a shame kev and me slipped our pedals in the first moto in the first straight, but made for some fun tyring to come through.

get so much more of a buzz from these smaller tracks, still buzzing today
Title: Re: Peckham Today
Post by: big kev 40 on January 13, 2009, 09:30 AM

Tony.......great to see you back racing after all you've been through mate  :daumenhoch:   i'm sure it won't be too long till you're back in the front runners.  maybe i should hurry up and get out on the track as it'll be the only time i might stand a chance of beating you!   :LolLolLolLol:
