Nelson Video (2009, Rnd 1): 2/3
Here is a real quick clip taken by Gina which is Sam and I in practice. Notice the sound of Sam's new Yamaha R1, compared to the Yamaha R6. The Yamaha R1 has been the popular talk of the paddock with its new crossplane crankshaft, giving it a distinctive sound over the other four cylinder bikes.

On the Fast Trax
This weekend we're off to Nelson Ledges to get some much needed track time on the bike. After a so-so time at Grattan last weekend and with the first WERA round at Nelson next weekend, we figured this would be a good opportunity to get up to speed at Nelson Ledges.
