  1. Wow!! How hard riding is he?! Catches and passes half the grid like a fast guy in the inters group!!

  2. Followed Kiyo for a few years now, great rider. Saw him 2011 at Silverstone and Brands doing this kinda thing, superb to watch....just a little frustrating in recent years but hopefully looks like he might be back on the money this season.
     
  3. I think I read somewhere that after this season, he'll be winding it down heading towards retirement :(
     
  4. Moved to racing :)
     
  5. Read similar too. By the sounds of it if he's at the sharp end of things he'll keep going, but doesn't seem like he wants to just run round.
     
  6. Fook me that was a scary start.
     
  7. i really enjoyed watching that.

    Brands Indy was my first track day on the 916, and i can see one or two places where i might improve...... perhaps it could be narrowed down to 'between the start and finish line'......

    thanks for putting that up

    :upyeah:
     
  8. Sure others will appear over the coming week. Well worth subscribing to their channel

  9. Ellison second race....

     
  10. I had an interview with Drift a few months back. No joy, but still a good little exciting company
     
  11. What a cracking video! I really rate Kiyo, plus he has the best lid design in the paddock.

  12. thanks bradders, there both really good vids, nice to see a whole race from the front wheel perspective
     
  13. I have always thought that Brands hatch indy circuit looks a little boring
     
  14. kinds looks less boring on Kiyo's bike, eh ;)

    actually paddock is worth doing, its not easy to get right and full of things which can take your attention, along with clearways which seems to have 10 lines all which can end up in the gravel!
     
  15. It does yeah. I did my first ever trackday there though and it's good because u get SOO many laps that it focusses u on learning a small amount of corners. All of the corners are difficult as well, graham hill is tricky and the first a last corners have loads of lines.
