Cracking jump start

[FraserG]

'twas at Brands this weekend just gone for Bemsee on the GP loop. On Sunday, just about to start the YPM (Yamaha Past Master's) race when the guy in 4th (second row) suddenly goes when the lights come on. But he doesn't pull away very quickly so we assume clutch problem and abort the start to allow him to pull off safely. Instead, while the rest of the grid waits with the aborted start, the guy carries on. Apparently thinking he would be receiving a jump start penalty he opted to get head down and start racing to make up the seconds from the penalty! He was haring off up to Druids while the rest of the grid (and me in race control) were confused as to where he thought he was going. Luckily, we quickly identified from his body position that he was in race mode so we red flagged him before he piled into the back of the grid!

It was just quite funny watching him mess up the start but decide to carry on anyway xD In for a penny and all that!

Ha ha. Proper race mentality. Head down and GO!
Can imagine the bemused looks on peoples faces as he kept it pinned.

Magic stuff! If you have blown it you may as well go for it!
