I never saw the track like that!
There was more daylight for me but as I was lap 4 for our team it was already rooted by the time I got to it :laugh:STM

Part one of Marty450 on the first lap. Mickktm300 is shown until he clears out.Cheers for the video’s Galey and STM!
Now I remember how pristine the track was on the first 2 laps. I couldn’t wipe the smile off my face when I got back to the pits. It was bloody dark in some sections though, especially the rain forest just before the grass track. I felt sorry for that bloke stuck in the rut down to his radiators, not sorry enough to stop though.
It was a lot of fun rounding people up. They were better at pulling over the later it got in the day although some did need the “Spud” treatment with some throttle blipping and YEEEWING. I tried to pass Tait on the second creek crossing by jumping off the bank and taking the non-existant left line, only to end up in a deep hole haha
How good was the grass track?! It was better earlier in the day before the breaking bumps formed but you could still round people up at speed.
As LC said, the motocrossers were hopeless on the hills. You’d get 4 or 5 of them on each hill if you could dodge them.
There was a great atmosphere at the event and especially around the pitts with a lot of the Old Bulls camped together. Great to catch up with everyone and have a drink or 20 post-race to celebrate.
Galey, great effort mate! Kimbo, Marty, Goccy and Tait, a pleasure as always!
Who’s coming down to Kowen this weekend?
