heehee, like I said to Chris in an email, I see things with an engineering eye before I see anything else.

unfortunately my family commitments stop me from doing any real 'away' races so no, won't be there. Someone taking a Digital Video Camera?

Wow Jimmy! You even caught the point that I broke a ball-cup. Impressive.

Great pictures.

This weekend the X6 will be run at Bury tomorrow, and Southport on Sunday. I hope you'll be there mate?

X6's looked better and better as todays not-so-secret test went on, mixing it with a few locals and their more traditional machinery.

In the absence of a real photographer, I shot a few pics...

Good shots there Pete, keep them coming.

Today has been a succesful day, my X-6 has just been getting faster and faster with every change I made today. But as you all know, I am a local to Bury and can drive it fast with my thumbs glued to my knees. So the real test for me will be tomorrow, I'll be taking it to Southport for the NW regional.
