Hello there
I just want to share some pictures and vids with you

The first race was at the Nürburgring
All the trainings, qualy and races take place on sunday
Very hard for the riders

We had one training, 2 qualy and 2 races

I spent the training showing my dad the best line and some braking points.
It will be his first race after 6 trackdays

In the qualification it was time to open the throttle a bit more

Second place behind the champion of 2009 - Dirk Schnieders
It was okay

Especially because I knew that he used new soft tyres front and rear.
And not 2 days old soft front and endurance rear like me

For the second qualification I changed the transmission (? correct word?)
Dirk uses 16-39 or 16-38, not sure.
Im using 17-37 - works better for me.

After both qualifications the start order was set and it was time to change the tyres

I dont want to start with old tyres in a race

Soft front, soft rear. I was ready to attack

A video, made from my buddy Markus

Enjoy

Thanks for posting.

How old is Dirk Schnieders now? I raced against him (or off the same grid anyway ) in Spain in 2003 and 2004 - he is quick as fook. He was always on some mega spec Ducati in those days.

Respect to your Dad!

My Dad


And another one from me - I like this one


Compared to my R6

Is there anywhere this is being televised?

Also, I thought the Duke Battle's had finished?

Get to run 'em without belly pans. Sweeeet! I f'ing hate my belly pan.
Great post. Wish I could get over there for that.

Well done Tead, great first race.
