Tom Ward was in no mood to finish anywhere but first as he treated the fans to a faultless riding display. I timed one of his laps at 40.36 sec as he was being pushed all the way by some very fast riders. I hope Bemsee take note as they once gave me the excuse for not returning to Lydden-Hill as; "Today's bikes are too fast for the circuit" !!!

The Triumph Daytona and Daytona Super 3 (model codes T331, T332, T343, T344, T354 and T357) is a three or four-cylinder British sports motorcycle. These bikes were produced at Triumph, Hinkley. The Daytona range uses a modular liquid-cooled double overhead camshaft (DOHC) engine design in a steel frame with a large-diameter backbone design. The modular design ensured that a variety of models could be offered whilst keeping production costs under control. The high-tensile steel tubular frame has a large diameter spine based on that of the Triumph Bonneville T140, though engine oil is not held in the frame.
In 1993 the 750 engine option was dropped in favour of an 885 cc triple engine that was already in use with the Trident and Trophy range.
This Daytona Super 3, was a lightened 900 cc machine that used a higher power engine jointly developed by Triumph and Cosworth, available as a Limited Edition of 805 machines and built during 1994-95. When it was released the Super 111 became an overnight classic with a host of changes from the standard model, the major one being a significantly more powerful engine. The power improvements were due to a collaboration with the tuning gurus at Cosworth and was accomplished by using higher compression pistons and a redesigned cylinder head. The end result was a power increase from 97 bhp to 115 bhp. Overall the Super III was a more responsive and higher performance ride, and also had many parts switched to carbon fibre and improved brakes.

What started as a bad day, badly spraining my ankle on a run, turned out quite good when I decided to take the bike to Snetterton and see what was going on. £13 pound entry told me something decent was on, and with a 3 hour team event not long away, it was right. The first bikes I have shot with the new Nikon/Sigma combo, and very pleased. I keep falling more in love with that DoF.

The Honda VFR400 series of motorcycles were a related series of 399 cc V4-engined motorcycles, which were essentially scaled-down versions of the larger VFR race models of the day. They were mainly developed for, and sold in, the Japanese domestic market, in part due to the tougher motorcycle drivers' license restrictions in Japan at the time for motorcycles with displacement exceeding 400cc. The first generation of VFR400 was the 1986–1987 NC21, which had replaced the VF400F when the Honda VF series was phased out. The 2nd generation of VFR400 was the VFR400R NC24, produced for the 1987 and 1988 model years
The third generation of VFR400R was the best known version, the VFR400R NC30. This saw styling changes, most notably the headlights were updated to smaller twin headlights, much the same as the RC30, and relocation of the silencer to the left side, which gave a more open look to the rear wheel on the right side. This model saw the introduction of the 360° crank firing engine, which is also known as the Big Bang engine. he NC30 was also officially sold in limited numbers in several European countries, minus their restrictors which limited top speed ro 110mph. The NC30 was produced between 1989 and 1992, though unsold bikes were still available to purchase from Honda dealers for several years thereafter. The NC30 reflected the styling of its iconic bigger brother, the VFR750R (RC30), right down to its 18-inch rear wheel. The front wheel on the earlier bikes was 16inch increasing to 17 inch for the NC30
