[QUOTE="vibrac, post: 156571, member: 60"] That dice was a real cliff hanger Ben had fried his clutch on the hairpin in the first race and so elected to go around the outside with what we called dob dob dob it allows someone to pass on the hairpin on the inside (this happens anyway as there is no way that the standard 7" Vincent brake will slow the lump like a manx front end will) but as there is no bus stop it makes for a real fast sweep into devils elbow then when the vinny gathers its skirts it blasts round corrams ( roadholding as steady as a Manx -so much for feather beds) and then observably faster than anything else down the back straight:). Roll on Donnington there are no hairpins we will slip on our smallest sprocket and best of all open 2" pipeso_O [/QUOTE]
