Some race footage from our team

So we have a cadwell win, a Brands second and a Donny GP second, i think.
This is the full footage from which Thundersport borrow for TV.
Enjoy, copy the lines..... Sometimes anyway when he gets it right. Avoid the mistakes

Good footage Paul, I've started following the team YouTube. Great vids of the front end working hard at Cartagena and Donington.

I was looking for some dry Cadwell for you. But we only have ZX10 footage. I'll pop it on.

And that is properly wet at Cadwell! They'd be better off racing jetskis

This is the zx10, not sure when or where we placed.

Jesus - that Cadwell park video... must be really hard riding with flippers :s

paul_m · Apr 18, 2017

That was a well deserved win to be fair. It was mental.

The first race on the video, is the really wet one. The second was just ridiculous because of the changing track. We pulled out as there was nothing to gain but possibly a crash.

Haha, never mind the flippers. Did you have to make a special seat to fit the riders massive balls?

That's some incredible riding in those conditions.

Great vids buddy, reminds me of a wet Brands GP race I had couple of years ago lol

paul_m · Apr 18, 2017

Haha. Don't even think the Dunlop wets would have cut through that.

You wouldn't believe how much work goes into convincing a rider that it's possible to do that prior to the race starting. I have to tell him that the bike WILL grip, as long as he squares a corner and doesn't try too much lean. If the knee touches to back out of it slightly.
I sometimes do tell little white lies

But it pays off too

Ive heard from others that the grip on wets is amazing...not hard to see watching that

You can also see how long it takes him to get the confidence though. It was a good ride, but if he had done as I told him from the out it would have been a complete walk over. The rubber brand new with sharp edges is obviously much better. It's all about mind confidence, not what the equipment can do,.... Sometimes

I think Syd said that he was lapping at 1.43 in those conditions.
