team ASF goes racing, now with added video

thats right it has come around again.

the last race of the interclub calendar will be run and won tomorrow at broadford race track.

after an average result last round at winton (4th in class) i am looking to finish the season strong. with the championship all but sewn up for 1st and 2nd currently i am in 3rd and looking the secure that position this weekend.

with new michy slicks fitted this week and the chance of rain god knows how the weekend will turn out. previous wet riding/racing as been very promising with lap times only 5 sec slower than my fastest dry times.

either way team ASF is looking for a strong finish to what has been so far a better than expected rookie season.

if you find yourself at a loose end tomorrow and can tolerate some shit weather then come up to broadford for a look see

see you at the track

Mate i would be there but its the wifes anniverasry..........lame i know.
Go well mate and bring it home.

I'll be there, even bringing the misses. Was talking to Banditrod the other day him and his misses are coming too.

well deano i must say mate after seeing you ride the tyres of the Gix mate i am getting more and more keen to get a trackbike oh and for those that wernt there Deano managed to score himself a 1st place today along with other top results and he even had the best looking pit bitches (Turbokat,Iceman and Myself)i even got to see some little people lol anyways congrats on a great days riding mate you deserve every bit of recognition for the way you ride the old girl

thanks guys for your help/surport today it was great to see you their

was a great day riding. weather was a little sketchy for one of the races but we stayed in one piece.

managed to knock another 1.5 seconds off my previous best

started the day with a club race (points go toward the club championship) and starting of pole i got an ok start (at least i didn't loose 5 positions before the first corner)tipped in 3rd and exited in 2nd. took me till the last lap to get to the lead but i made it stick and took the win.

my pre modern races were great finished 3rd in all 3 with a great dice in the last race of the 3 races.

after banditrod and iceman left i had a consolation race and after starting off 3rd position i was leading into the first turn, unfortunaley after 1-1/2 laps the motor was starting to go off song as the battery was dieing slowly (gotta love total loose ignitions). unfortunately i couldn't use more than 1/2 throttle and therefore was unable to hold onto 1st and coasted to a 2nd place. put the multimeter on the battery when i came in and with only 7.5 volts in the battery i can understand why it didn' want to run.

ended the day with 3 trophies. 2nd for the consulation race, third for pre modern and 3rd in the pre modern over 500 championship.

for my first year of racing i am very happy with the results. bring on 2009 and hopefully more silverware for the poolroom.

Congrats Deano you must be happy with that. bring on 09

well done mate, you done well.

congrats mate, done good!
(now go charge that battery)

Good work mate, i just gotta work out how to ride a bike then i might come down and have a play one weekend next year, i might try and drag down a couple of others too.

Great work mate! Sounds like a dream weekend!

just turn the throttle and hold on mate, has worked for me so far. the watercooled gixxer was never a great handling bike but still i am about 4 sec off the best time the bike as done around that circuit. more track time is needed i think.

fimp - that battery will be going in the bin. i have 5 more and that one only did about 3 races and went flat very quickly so i think i will give it the boot. lesson i learned from that was that i should put a volt meter on the battery after every race.

Good onya Deano, love your work.http://psychobike.com/forums/images/smilies/beer.gif

Orright Deano!!!! Moto gp is just around the corner mate! Well done.

Top stuff Deano

finally got the video editing thing worked out (thanks si)

Glad it worked mate! Love the ever decreasing lap times, and like how you left it till the last moment to pass that guy so he had no chance of pulling it back. Good on a mate.

yeah mate got it working alright. not that hard to work really. just a bit of stuffing around trying different things.

Top stuff Deano

Nice win mate and top video footage. I'll be watching that more than once before I come down your way with the PCRA next year in October. Looks like a fun track, can't wait.
