Went to my first National tour in Bristol this weekend. Felt good after the first day being in the final trophy position, but wasn't able to back it up on the second day. The rains were coming, so I wanted to make sure I got in one clean run in case things got wet. For my second run, I probably got the wetest run after some drizzling, it stopped as I was on course, so was a little slower. Then coned away a faster run for my third, still wouldn't have been enough to hold a trophy anyway. Accomplished my goal of being in the top half overall though.
Almost happy I didn't trophy though, becuase during second driver runs (last 10 or so runs of the event) there was a lightning delay, and they ended up letting anyone who wasn't in the trophies leave. Meant I could head home (4.5 hour drive) an hour or more sooner.
Also did the pro-solo the days before, but recorded all the runs together, and I'm too lazy to find the best ones. Didn't end up doing all that well, partially because they were definitely a 3rd gear courses, and the 3-2 shift was arguing with me all event, so I stopped even trying and lost quite a bit of time sitting on the rev limiter in 2nd. It was less punishing at the champ tour not shifting.
