RedBud Is Ready

Thanks Mav.

The Brit in the Ginger Spice dress is Elliot Banks Browne, an ex GP rider who’s on his stag do - he’s also racing the pit bike des nations this evening (probably in the dress).

As if it weren't wet enough already...

Wrong, 2 stroke

Wrong, its packed to the gills. Over 70000 today and expect more tomorrow. Normal national is 35000.

Best event in the World.

I have to say, from an organisation point, Red Bud was not ready. Started off on Friday with not being able to buy beer in the track and for some reason not being allowed in the paddock till 2pm (which is only a minor thing, but still an annoyance) Saturday and Sunday there was places to buy beer and food but not even close to enough. The queues were the biggest I have ever seen, if you wanted to get a beer you had to allow 40 mins at least. The PA system was terrible, once the racing started you couldn't hear a thing so it was very difficult to follow what was happening from the team standings, and when their wasn't racing on the main on circuit commentator was just awful. He didn't have a clue who anyone was, couldn't pronounce any of the names, and he didn't know enough to talk for anymore than 2 mins without asking everyone to shout Red Bud and I was kinda stunned how clueless a lot of the fans were, just had no idea who people were. For the entire 2nd Moto the people around us were cheering wildly when Ben Watson came around because they thought it was Plessinger

The racing was amazing and that made the weekend, I still thoroughly enjoyed the weekend, but if they wanna run another one in the future, they have a lot of things to work on

I'd like to see the same photo here of the parking field behind the paddock now, that place was a MESS.
