Hey Porra

What kinda lap times do you guys clock on Kyalami.

Don't want to compare, cause I haven't a clue on cars - just interested.

P.S. Enjoy.

Hi Low Level, track changed now, no more 'bus stop before the pit straight. Now it is a 'lekker' right hander. I did a 2:04.6 on Saturday.

They took the bus stop away - finally sense have prevailed.... it was put there due to sissy gerhard berger saying the arrival at the pit turn was too fast.
Nuts about Cheetahs. Petit is the place.

I - for one - actually enjoyed the chicane. Was one of my strong points. :wink: :lol:

Our last day out they were busy with the "renovations". Had quite an interesting day through the new, temporary, chicane.

Haven't been on the "new" track yet, but spoke to the local SBK guys - apparantly average of 1.5 sec faster.

Enjoy your weekend. (^^)

Hi Porra
I will be leading a procession in the zx10 masters for a friend of mine that passed away last month.
What are you racing?
Cheers, Stephen.

Hey Duck, was great to see you too. We had a good time till the second heat. Look out for it on TV, engine let go in a big way down the mineshaft. Oh well, better luck next time like they say. Thanks for coming out Duck. (^^)
