Today is the day...

RAPID Bikes Magazine hits the stands today, with my article a major feature. I have already received an email of support from one of the riders- Dean Bonthorne- we took out to Calder for a night of Drag Racing:

Hiya Tom,

Just got the latest issue of Rapid with the Calder story. Awesome stuff!!

Just thought you'd all like to know a follow-up on the line "Dean has that 600 launching like a bullet. Watch out for him in Superstock starts". Since Calder I've achieved the following:

ASC Rd5 : WINTON	GRID POS'N -> TURN 1	ASC Rd 6 : QLD R'WAY	GRID POS'N @ TURN 1
Race One	8th -> 3rd (Up 5 places!)	Race One	16th -> 9th (Up 7 places!!)
Race Two	8th -> 6th (Collision on grid)	Race Two	16th -> 6th (Up 10 places!!!)
Race Three	8th -> 12th (Spun tyre in rain)	Race Three	16th - > 13th (Mono'd. Oops!)

QLD Qualifying nightmare aside, not too shabby, eh!! On average I've been leaving my gird row compatriots for dead, and passing most of the guys on the row ahead!!

If anyone has his e-mail, please pass this on to Maurice, and to all at Rapid.. "THANKS!!"


Cheers,
Deano #66

Sweet!
