Donington Today

  1. Had a good start to the morning however had quite a spectacular lowside through the cramer curves after the track temp dropped massively between sessions.

    Saw quite a few Ducati's there, anyone on here?


    Couple action shots -

    Also massive thanks to JHP who rebuilt it in the space of 2 hours in time for Brands on Friday.

  2. craner curves......named after the man who first brought racing to Donington:upyeah:
     
  3. You're very lucky it didn't dig in and flip, that left is a bike wrecker!
     
  4. Yep, stayed on the left side all the way. I feel hugely unlucky but lucky at the same time as no structural damage. My leathers are fooked though and hands burnt from the heat of sliding down the tarmac
     
  5. Glad the damage was minimal.craner normally results in big damage if you come off there! S+p have some good deals going on leathers at the moment.worth a look.
     
  6. Yes Siree, that is one scary bike wrecking corner. I had a sneaky speedo glance (naughty, I know) and saw an indicated 107mph. It deffo feels like a squeaky bum leap of faith lobbing it in there.... Its probably in my head but I think its getting a bit cold now for Craner Curves heroics.
