    BTW, one of our guys, Tony (who Porl knows) is
    now being lined up to be a CSS instructor.

    I hate him.

    It has a push/pull zoom rather than the traditional twist. Many
    "experts" believe it has problems with sucking in dust through the
    mechanism.

    Multiplied by 6 or 8 hours, certainly. A lap an hour (at Snett), more
    or less - the sort of time the ukrm pit crew can make up (on 75% of
    the rest) with a good fuel stop(1).

    When I first encountered Endurance Racing, I naively expected the
    riders to be going at, perhaps, 95% - in order to ensure a finish,
    preserve the machinery, not fucking crash - that sort of thing. I
    didn't really expect chicken strips, but I certainly didn't expect
    smoking brakes. IYSWIM.

    Can't stop racers racing, though.


    1. I timed a bunch a couple of garages up the pit lane - it took them
    over three minutes just to fill the tank. You could do that quicker
    in Tesco, including paying for the fucker and eating yer Twix, FFS.

    Yes, I've heard some bad reports about some of the other
    schools as well.
    Same here - not the 1:15 bit as I could only manage a 1:27 but
    I'll be heading off for some schooling to find a bit more speed.
