Intro
It is no secret that Donnington Park is the biggest event in the CRMC calendar. Not only is Donnington Park's national circuit a sweeping joy to race round but it is also host to a well-attended Classic Motorcycle Show and Festival.
The Team were out in force with the usual faces of Andrew Green, Gavin Heggs, Mick Rudd and Symon Woodward being joined by new/returning team members: Chris Bartlett, Jim Dickinson, Paul Kirkby and Dave Williams as well as friend of the team (Cling-on) Richie Gelder. Alongside were the Team sponsors, Witham Group, who provided their hospitality lorry and a RAF Regular & Reserves recruitment tent complete with model Hercules and plenty of goodies for passing to young enthusiasts and future recruits.The weather was set to be hot and dry for the full long weekend and with an uneventful yet promising practice behind them, the team were very much looking forward to getting stuck in. Expectations were high, some optimistically so.

With my Honda MT still gathering dust in the corner of the garage
after its complete engine failure at last year’s Donnington Classic Revival
Festival I borrowed another Earnshaw’s MT125 for the Bob Mac Memorial meeting
at East Fortune in June. I had such a good time it restored my enthusiasm for
125 racing and I was reunited with the bike for this meeting. It performed
impeccably and I enjoyed 4 excellent races at the front with 4 other MTs, a
Yamaha TZ and a couple of newer RS125s. After messing the start in the first 2
races I was caught in the Melee of 125 racing whilst Jerry Lodge managed to
break away at the front. The races for second were frantic with the third race
only having 0.7 seconds between 5 bikes as they crossed the finish line. I got
a better start in the third race and attempted a move around the outside of
Lodge in the first corner as he was boxed in by some RSs. The RSs made him sit
up which had the unintentional result of pushing me out wide onto the rumble
strip. This was enough to drop me back into the “bunch” whilst yet again Lodge
made his escape. After a flying start in the last race I was the one who
managed to make the break and soon had a clear gap to the bikes battling
behind. What a difference a bit of clear track makes and I maintained a
comfortable lead to take my first (but obviously much deserved) 125 win for
several years.Post Classic 350 Grand Prix

Practice
Timed practice for the Wheatcroft Trophy didn’t go much better. After a couple of laps trying to pick my way past the much larger and faster bikes I had a coming together with one at the Old Hairpin. My leathers made contact with their handlebars, somehow I managed to stay on but unfortunately he didn’t fare so well. The session was red-flagged soon after due to the number of incidents around the track and I limped back to survey the damage. (What Paul has forgotten to mention was that although he was unaware, this incident happened under a yellow flag which meant he had to go and make a very humble and sincere apology to the Clerk of the Course).
Race 11
Race 24
Race 35, The Wheatcroft Trophy & Race 47Race 24 turned out to be the highlight of my weekend. Despite starting from 12th on the grid for race 35 and managing to get a half decent start I soon pulled in after the engine didn’t feel right. The increase in temperature and a poor carburation choice being the culprit. After another lowly start for the Wheatcroft Trophy and after two large rear wheel slides I pulled in yet again, unsure as to whether I had a puncture or not. This time it turned out that I simply didn’t have enough air in the tyre for the track temperature. Not wanting to tempt fate I loaded my van after the Wheatcroft Trophy race and started my 7hr drive back to Scotland, skipping race 47.

#74 Heggs
The VFR750 had received a little attention between Darley and
Donny, not as much as she needed but things were looking in better shape. A new
clutch slave and line should stop the clutch giving up mid race, removal of the
lower infill fairing would hopefully help with cooling and a subtly adjusted
exhaust link pipe should have helped with ground clearance. As ever; nothing
was tested so it was all a bit of an unknown.I was starting mid table(ish) on a warm Friday afternoon. My start was familiar with me slowing for traffic into Redgate only to get mobbed by various machines with a death wish. I picked off a few down the hill through Craner Curves and then laid chase of a FZ750 ridden by Stephen Wimble. A VFR got past me at the Esses which I tried to block pass with far too much enthusiasm in the same place on the next lap putting me into the gravel. This let a
couple more bikes past whilst I dug myself out (at least the Clutch stood the test) which I then had to work past again. Ground clearance continued to be an issue but nowhere near as bad as it had been in previous races. By the end I was back with Wimble and his FZ750 who I finally managed to pick off round the outside through Craner Curves which was exciting to say the least. All that was left was an SR500 which had worked its way to the front of our pack but I didn't quite manage to catch up. Next time maybe.
#157 Woodward.
Both Yamahas were put into the van after Darley which is where they stayed all month as I went immediately out of the country only to arrive back the Thursday night before Donnington. Despite this I had high hopes for the bikes and as I shared the grid with Gav’s V-Four I was determined to ensure I left him behind after his previous ever-optimistic claim. Things didn’t go quite as planned. Due to being in the preceding race I was the last bike to arrive at the collection grid and despite going straight through the collection area, the pit lane Marshall was unwilling to let me onto the track as the rest of the grid were formed up. Eventually I was allowed, but the hassle, rush and hot weather had me in an agitated state. As the flag dropped I was too heavy on the clutch/power and the chain tensioner failed, resulting in the wheel moving and chain coming off the sprocket, leaving me stationary on the grid as the rest of the bikes raced off.Race 21
#74 Heggs
For this Saturday race I was quite aware that Green was on form
and on the circuit with me. I could not let him get past me or I would never
hear the end of it! Another thing playing on my mind was that my now rather
thin link pipe was not far off wearing through. So much so in fact, I had taken
to sticking a blob of putty on it to get it through at least one corner without
further damage.A familiar start was taken into Craner Curves when I got told off for rolling-off the throttle by Woodward coming steaming past. Annoyed at myself I dragged the VFR round the old hairpin to see if my "massive power advantage" could out drag him up the hill. Once the RD came onto song it stopped getting bigger however and to add insult to injury he threw his exhaust silencer at me in protest. Still having flashbacks to Woodward’s Dick Dastardly style tactics (you will have to wait until the 250 report to see how bad the man is getting), I hoped that maybe the VFR could find the poke to get past him on the long straight but again I was disappointed to find the RD had more than enough legs to stay out of reach. Over the following lap, Woodward made some good overtakes which I failed to mirror and another trip into the gravel did little to help my cause, letting Woodward get away. I was now in a group of VFR750's however, which was an interesting prospect with Wimbles F750 and the SR500 up front. I enjoyed tussling with the pretty equal VFR's for most of the race before I managed to pass them. By the time I caught Wimble it was a bit late and the SR was long gone. It was somewhere about here that I realised I could brake a lot harder into the Esses than I was doing previously, which helped. It was still a good race and thankfully no sign of Green!
#157 Woodward.
Due to not getting past the start line on the 1st race I was starting at the back, but after a fun 125 race immediately previously I was up for it, Heggs was disposed of through Craner Curves on the first lap and I set off reeling in the leading 500s. I surprised myself to find that within 3 laps I had caught up and overtaken the leading 3 500s, I prematurely thought I had it in the bag as I caught up with a 750 in front of them. I was bulked and slowed a little waiting to get past the larger bike and before I knew it 2 of the 500s swept past. They hadpicked their pace up and now the race was on with the 750 adding an undesirable variable. Keen to make a clean break before anybody else did I attempted an optimistic overtake of the 750 which was not only unsuccessful but had me detouring through the edge of a gravel trap, I lost several places during the sight-seeing detour and finished 4th. During the race the exhaust note changed and after a quick “in-flight” inspection I realised the end of one exhaust was missing. My head temperatures were consistent so I carried on. The only issue was retrieving the lost item, after a bit of investigation I located the item and could see it by the side of the track. After a quick chat, the CRMC Marshalls had soon located and returned the missing item for John to weld back on.
Race 33
#74 Heggs
It was Sunday and that meant the VFR would be going out twice. The
morning race was the most comfortable of the lot with the temperature bearable.
The usual drop back start followed by claw back saw me with a familiar group of
VFR's and Wimbles FZ. I managed to get some more pace through McCleans and
Coppice which propelled me past Wimble and Mike Gilson on his VFR. This proved
to be my fastest race of the weekend.#157 Woodward.
To be perfectly honest, I am writing this at 0100 AM at a (free) pool bar in Turkey and I can’t remember much about this race except that it was fun and I finished first 500, less than a second ahead of Richard’s Ducati and was lucky enough to get a clean break in race 45 to win comfortably.Race 45
#74 Heggs
With most of my kit packed I rolled the VFR out for one last race
of the day. Things were oh so familiar but this time a novice on a VFR had got
in front of me. His bike was well matched with mine thus; he was slow enough to
be in my way but not slow enough that I could easily get past. I decided to be
patient as I really didn't want to knock him off, in the end passing the novice
at McCleans whilst he was caught up with a back-marker. This however cost me
dearly meaning I had no hope of catching Wimbles turtle adorned FZ, leaving me
to finish behind him.600 Junior Production
#61 Williams
After a long lay-off from racing, it’s good to be back in the
paddock! Having only raced more modern Suzukis in the past I wasn’t sure how
I’d get on with a 31 year-old post-classic Yamaha. As a new member of the RAF
Classic Racing Team, and riding a ‘diesel’ I was immediately assigned to a
dusty corner of the awning alongside Mick on his X7 and the booby-prize XJ –
doubly doomed as he’s either on a Suzuki or a four stroke. However, it turned
out, between us, we finished more races than the rest of the Team put together
and each time 100% of our bikes crossed the line, which is more than can be
said of the RD guys……. Must be down to Roy Dale’s spannering and spiritual
guidance.There were 50 ‘proddy’ entries for this round so close racing with like-minded loons was assured. After a very average qualification session, which saw me towards the back of the grid for the first race, I gained 11 places to end in the high teens.
Each subsequent race followed the same theme: Starting at the back of the grid and then working my way through the field to be rewarded with a back of the grid start in the next race. Strange, but it made for good racing. I had a reserve ride in the Post Classic 750s so again started every race from 40th on the grid with a best result of 19th.
Racing the ‘Fizzer’ is great fun and once I find a way of stopping the exhaust studs unwinding themselves mid-race it will just be tyres, fuel and racing.
Meanwhile, Sy Woodward was trying to keep his bikes in one piece and his son Joe, mechanic John and I take full credit for his first victories of the weekend – Joe reminding his dad that he was about to miss his race, me riveting his stinger back onto the RD and John pushing both bikes miles to and from the assembly area. A real team effort. Can’t wait for more of the same at Mallory!

Race 5
#14 Green
Making the most of the current run of hot weather and resultant
hot tyres, I was off to practice with a bounce in my step. As soon as we
started down pit lane I was intending to make the most of qualifying and
practice. Feeling relaxed I settled down and put some good laps in from the
off, resulting in me being 2nd quickest in qualifying. However the first 4 were
split by 0.4 of a second so I wouldn't forget that come the race.Gridding up on the front row in second, left me a good opportunity to stay with the front runners. I had the very fast Bridgestone ridden by Jeff Smith in first and fellow team mate Symon on my right. I was determined to try and get a good start, when the flag dropped I found I had made a good short run to Redgate and was first out of it. Not familiar territory being out in first, I just got my head down and pushed on as fast as I could. I didn’t see anyone for about 3 or 4 laps when the Bridgestone pulled out of my slip stream and drove past me down Starkies straight.
This left me with a happy/sad conundrum,
sad as it was that bit quicker but happy knowing I designed the exhausts for it
and it was now making another 7% more power than previously. Having more corner
speed on the fastest corners allowed me to gain back on Jeff. But not enough to
have a serious challenge for the lead. This continued until the last lap where
we were navigating around back markers and we managed to catch some coming into
the last chicane and onto the start finish straight. I capitalised on this and
made better progress through it allowing me to have a good run up to the line.
I finished 0.258 seconds behind Robin Keating’s little Bridgestone ridden by
Jeff Smith for a good, solid second place.#15 Dickinson
Having not ridden my RD for a while I wasn’t expecting to be quick
(no change there then!!) at Donny, but was still mega keen to get out on track
and enjoy myself. Practice showed that I was off the pace but I didn’t care too
much as the sun was out and I love the track.I started in 22nd on the grid and achieved an average start. I had a dabble with some of the lower capacity machines and tried to get some muscle memory back. I was down on corner speed but the gearing tweaks I’d made seemed to work well. The bike was running pretty cool and rich but otherwise happy. Uneventful but enjoyable.
#41 Bartlett
This was later found to be top of the carb coming loose so I was lucky to get a top 10 finish.
#71 Rudd
An apprehensive qualifying session after a season of engine rebuilding was accompanied by the X7's reoccurring poor acceleration out of corners. As a result i would be starting race 1 from a lowly position.Following some carburettor adjustments post qualifying, plus considering how well the X7 would cope with a can of fuel and a match, I began race 1 reasonably well. That was until the old hairpin, at which point most of the field decided to leave me behind and carry on racing. With the bike sputtering and failing to accelerate out of corners again I decided retirement and further investigation would be preferable to another engine rebuild.
#74 Heggs
I was out onto the track in the front with a couple of others for
qualifying. One blew up on lap one on the straight, spraying me in fluidd and
the other retired at Redgate which left me on my own for much of the qualifying
period, at the front!!!! I felt really comfortable on the circuit and just kept
plodding on but with nobody to push me along, my lap time was only going to be
good whilst the others caught me up. It was still nice to get a few “well
dones” from the others who were equally surprised to find me at the pointy end.Starting on the third row of a full grid was quite a nice feeling with Gelder on my left, Bartlett on my right and the Green, Woodward duo up front. Unfortunately my start was an absolute howler with the bike bogging badly. I fully expected to be at the back but it couldn't have been that bad as by the end of lap one I had made back most of my losses and was in front of Bartlett, which was probably going to be the only time I would be allowed to do that this weekend.
#157 Woodward.
Race 17
#14 Green
Not as good a start as the first race as Symon beat me into the
first corner. The pair of us were first and second down Craner Curves, with
Symon taking the tight line on the left at the bottom clipping the apex
perfectly. So I just used the curb for the inside line and this gave me the
advantage into the old hairpin. This battle was joined by another 2 bikes and
we were changing places for the next few of laps. Jeff managed to get in front
and I had the rear let go a little half way through Coppice. This left all
three of us in very close contention. As wecame out of the exit the three of us were greeted by a red flag and forced to stop. Jeff managed to stop immediately, however Symon and I did not. We both had the same idea it turns out. We thought we must be over 2/3rds race distance, so we both crossed the finish line and stopped at the end of pit lane. Potentially giving us 1st and 2nd should it have been declared. However this wasn’t the case and we were made to push our bikes back up the pit lane in the baking heat, re-joining the rest of the bikes to form up again for a restart. The crash turned out to be long-time friend Chis Bartlett on his Maxton framed 250, it was a big crash and thankfully he was ok apart from a rib. However the bike took a battering.
The restart had me get in front for the first corner with Symon,
Gav and a few others very close behind. I was in the lead coming out of the old
hair pin when the rear tyre let go in what I thought was going to be an
irrecoverable slide. Somehow I landed back on the bike and settled it down. I
then carried on and still lead the race for the next few corners. I had my
warning and was concerned about my rear tyre doing it again. The track
temperature was well over 40 degrees and the old tyre wasn’t handling it. I was
passed by Symon along Starkies straight and I stayed just behind him. Shortly
after, about three bikes lengths behind him, coming out of the old hairpin, I
noticed he snapped his chain. Hey ho back in second, cheers… Well that was
untill Graham Acott managed to pass me on his X7 with better corner speed and
he stayed in front until the end where he took a defensive line through the
last chicane and onto the final run to the line. I had the better line through
and had a good run up to the finish line. It was close, the commentator was
awaiting with the microphone on the exit from the track. It took a few minutes
for the decision on who was 2nd and 3rd. Graham had just beaten me by 4/100 of
a second! About the width of the transponder I reckon.#15 Dickinson
Saturday’s first race was much the same as the last one.
My lap times dropped but I was still adrift of last year’s efforts. I was somewhat distracted by seeing Bartlett having a lie down at the end of the start finish straight followed by a red flag.
The restart followed the same profile for 5 laps, thankfully with no more falling off from my team mates.
#41 Bartlett
Race 2 on Saturday had seen a few little tweaks on the jetting. However it all came to an end on lap 4 when the back wheel kicked up coming into redgate, throwing me from the bike and landing heavily.
Heavy bruising and probable cracked rib meant that was the end of the weekend for me.
#71 Rudd
Following discussions with other team members and X7 riders around the paddock it was concluded that elements of the exhausts were the root cause of my woes. An emergency call was made to Dave Bond who agreed to loan me his exhausts. Dickinson delivered them in time to fit and make some initial adjustments prior to Race 2, with passing assistance from Steve Parrish. Starting even further back on the grid the acceleration issues seem to be cured only to be replaced by problems with full throttle. Once again I retired the bike.#74 Heggs
had my attention as the dust cleared enough to show the culprit, a bike chain. I didn't need to look up really but there he was, that Dastardly Woodward was coasting looking at his back wheel, no doubt swearing his tits off. I quickly regained focus and dragged myself up the hill and into close proximity to Gelder. He had the speed on me at the straight which I thought was going to be a killer but he suddenly retired gifting me a place. I could make out Graeme Acott up ahead so things must be serious (or he was breaking down again) but I was unable to close him leaving me to take home another 4th place.
#157 Woodward.
As Andy has previously highlighted, we were having a brilliant 4-way dice until Bartlett got ambition and talent mixed up resulting in a big off and a Red Flag. Going into the old hairpin for the second time after the restart I dived up the inside of Jeff’s Bridgestone to take the lead only to have the chain snap on the way out.Race 29
#14 Green
Race three was a similar run to the first race, I got away at the
start along with Jeff on the Bridgestone. I kept my head down and I didn’t see
anyone else all race. I finished approximately 10 yards behind 1st and a good
few hundred yards in front of 3rd place. All was going well until about 2 laps
from the end when the bike came to a halt. I managed to coast to the Esses
where I rolled left as everyone else turned right and onto the start finish
straight. Nothing like the baking heat to have to push the bike back through
the paddock.I started about stripping the bike to find the problem. Both cylinders failed at the same time leaving me thinking that a common problem must be behind it. Upon removing the bottom fairing it all became clear as the rotor, with the end of the crank still inside it, was in the bottom of the belly pan. One snapped crank.
Lucky for me I had a spare bottom end in the trailer. The evening
consisted of Mick Rudd, Roy Dale and myself swapping the broken engines top end
onto the replacement bottom end and slinging the lot back into the bike. All of
this was helped out by Stahlwille providing some real quality tools for us to
work with.The only issue I was left with was the gearbox ratios were different, I normally use a TZ gearbox and the replacement one was a standard RD. I managed a few practice laps the next morning and decided that a couple of teeth off the rear would do the job.
#15 Dickinson
The third race of the weekend saw me chop further seconds off my lap time.
Improvements aside, I was still not able to latch onto Heggs whom I had hoped I’d be able to put some pressure on by now.
#71 Rudd
tipping into Redgate I found Andy Guy lapping me on the inside and Sy Woodward going round the outside of me. Following some good racing and rapid learning of the track I managed to finish towards mid-field. While not a great result I was happy to finally finish a race at Donington after 2 years of trying.
#74 Heggs
This race had a horribly misguided grid with me on the second row
and the likes of John Warwick and Woodward at the back! I had my best start of
the day with me sticking a wheel in front of Acott for the lead into Redgate
much to everyone's surprise, no less my own. Less surprising was my tumble back
down the grid as I failed to hold my pace. As I tipped into the Esses on lap
one I noticed a green motorcycle looking up the inside on an intercept
trajectory. Thankfully Warwick thought better and just used his power to blast
past me shortly after. 
Woodward went for greater corner speed at Craner Curves
and Andy Guy followed closely indicating to me to follow him. This seemed a
good invitation but he did a far better job of dispatching Gelder than I could
manage. Gelder hovered just out of reach for a few laps till I acted upon
noticing that although he had the pace on me on the straights and, to a greater
extent, through the Esses I was closing him down through Craner Curves and up
through Starkies Bridge. I had started to close the gap and dismissed a few
opportunities as a little silly (Gelder would later call me Mr Polite for this). On the start of lap 8 Gelder looked over his shoulder, saw me and went straight on at Redgate. There was clearly something wrong but it did tickle me that I had "psyched out Gelder". With little time and a huge gap both in front of and behind me, I just worked past back markers and tried not to be rubbish through the Esses, with little success but another 4th was not to be sniffed at.
#157 Woodward.
As both myself and John Warick never completed a rolling lap in the restarted race we had to start at the back. We cut our way through the traffic until John retired leaving me to claim 3rd, a fair way behind Andy and Jeff.
Race 41
#14 Green
#15 Dickinson
For the last race, I enjoyed mixing it up with some of the other non-RAF racers battles further down the field.
Pase was picked up but most importantly I was having fun out there.
#71 Rudd
Race 4 continued in a similar manner, battling in the lower order. That said with improving circuit knowledge I managed to take another 4 seconds off my lap time. Eventually finishing 17th.#74 Heggs
#157 Woodward.
Another tight great race finishing second behind John, but most importantly I restored the natural order between Andy and myself and as you are only as good as your last race, it should help to keep the banter down for the next couple of weeks.
It is great to have close racing with friends and colleagues, Mallory is going to be hard, can’t wait.
In Closing
#14 Green
Overall a great weekend which was helped by the weather. Two friends approached me after the second race and the pair of them subsidised me for a new rear tyre as they wanted to help and show their appreciation. The help, support and camaraderie that exists in the Classic Club paddock is something to be proud of. The support we have for our team and personal sponsors is just fantastic, especially as we have such a large contingent of racers. The riders throughout the grid all help each other out and they all ensure they are looked after should anything happen. Witham Oil again provided the team with a hospitality wagon for the weekend which was very well received with the on-board air-conditioning system and fridges making life much more comfortable.#15 Dickinson
Despite being off the pace I had a cracking weekend on one of my favourite tracks. This was the first weekend my carb tweaks have been properly tested which although running okay, a re-jet is on the cards to make things even better.Hopefully I’ll get some more track time before the next outing. Then I will be able to work my way back up the field and remind the other RAF lads I’ve not lost all of last year’s pace! (we hope not as you didn’t have much to lose in the first place).
#41 Bartlett
Disappointing result and I clearly need more track time.
#51 Kirkby
Despite feeling like I was learning to ride a bike again, I achieved my two aims for the weekend. On Friday morning if anyone had suggested that lapping in 1 min 21.0 seconds would still happen I would have laughed at them but I managed to achieve this by Saturday afternoon. My second aim was to bring the bike home in one piece, which I did….just! A massive thank you to all of our sponsors and to the rest of the team for all of their help and camaraderie over the weekend.#71 Rudd
While not a particularly good weekend in terms of results. I am hopeful that the root cause of my repeated engine failures may have been identified. Unfortunately I will be unable to prove this until next season. Thanks to the Gentleman that has provided the team with a second wooden stool painted in the RAF team colours. I am sure it will be very useful in the future.#74 Heggs
I was very hard to please this weekend. I put down a pretty strong performance and clearly identified the areas that I need to work on. In doing so my braking got harder and later, my corner speeds increased and my acceleration out of corners became more aggressive (and limit finding it turned out). My lap times fell and I put myself high on the tables in a busy grid which, for my second year I should be very pleased with. I was however frustrated not to keep with the fast pack on the RD and disappointed that the VFR is still not quite right on what was probably my strongest circuit. I now look forward to Mallory knowing that I need to build on what I learned at Darley Moor to get me through the hairpin and Donnington Park for that glorious long right hander.#157 Woodward.
Despite a few mishaps and setbacks, it is great to see the Team develop. The riders are all getting quicker and the bikes are all becoming more reliable (even the Suzuki saw a chequered flag). Some riders have had to postpone their racing for various reasons but we are still getting new riders. It is rumoured that even Loadmaster Si Allen will make a Debut appearance on his very long awaited K4 at Mallory. Just got to keep ahead of the rest of them or the Saturday night BBQs are going to be very long.
Finally
special thanks go to the companies who continue to support us: EBC brakes UK, Talon
Engineering, Stahlwille UK, Forcefield body
armour, MCA Leicester, NGK spark plugs UK, Royal Air Force Motorsports Association, Royal Air Force Central Fund, Spencer
Racing, Tony Salt Tyres, Witham group Motul, Speedbikepics, Sports pics, R-Tech Welding and individual sponsor
for Symon Woodward: Mick Abbey tuning.
Needless
to say extra thanks go to Witham group Motul for the loan of their
fantastic hospitality lorry, RAF recruiting for the loan of their tent and to
the race organisers and owners of Donnington park for sorting us out the great
pitch to show it all off. Further thanks need to go to John Walton, Roy Dale
and Tom Flynn for their technical support, Craig Hornsby and Derek Carruthers
for their photographic skills and finally Bethany Fraser and Jackie Walton for
manning the recruiting tent during our (predominant) absence and making sure
the team never had an empty tea cup in their hand.
