Toddington 01/07/01:
Heat Race: I got the jump off the gate but the start was not in my favoure as it was another uphill start straight. I got in to the first corner in mid pack, but because it was grass everyone put their brakes on and slid straight to the outside of the first corner. I made up a load of places going down a hill in to a corner, everyone bunched up to the inside so I rode round the outside of them. I then battled with a four-stroke rider for a while but I got bored trying to get passed him and out-braked him going in to a tight right hander. This put me in to 15th and that was where I stayed for the rest off the race.
Race Position: 15th
A Final Race 2: I got out the gate well again but the same thing happened in the first corner.This time I got pushed to the back more but I managed to take some of them going up the uphill jump and out jumped two riders at the top. This put me about 19th. I was struggleing in this race as I used a lot of energy trying to get through the pack. I eventually managed to get to 16th. After the race Dad told me that the commentator said I was riding really smooth. This cheered me up alot.
Race Position:16th
A Final race 3: I didn't get as good start in this race, and I had to battle a lot to get through the pack.I got tired about mid way through the race because the heat was affecting me. I still managed to take a lot of people though, but then I decked it in a slipy corner.This put me in about 32nd. I battled as hard as I could but could only make it to 26th. This wasn't the kind of weekend I wanted.
Race Position:15th

Heat Race: This heat started real bad. I got a good drop on the gate but ended up bangin' bars with some dude on a Honda.Anyway, somehow I managed to hit neutral (don't ask me how because I was shifting to 3rd from 2nd!). This put me in dead last!any way. I managed to battle all the way through the field to 8th.I felt I really deserved this place as I had to block pass and brake check a lot of people.I also accidently hit some guy's front wheel and he went down.
Race Position: 8th
A Final Race 2: The track was watered right before the start of this race, but the Dunlop's still hooked up extremely well and got me out the first corner in 9th. The second corner was a completely different story.It was like a boating lake! Coming out of the corner I used three Tearoff's! I stopped around lap four to get Dad to clean the goggles as I couldnt see a thing! I stopped the next lap so iI could put some clean goggles on.While I was doing this I saw the leader go by.I had to work hard to unlap myself and get to 13th.
Race Position: 13th
A Final Race 3: The track was watered again! This race went pretty much the same as the last, I managed to get one place higher this time though. I was dissapointed with the second half of this weekend.
Race Position: 12th
