Last 6th of October, Pedro participated on another Drag Racing Show Trackday, this time the bike used was the APRILIA RS 250, since our Honda RS 250R didnt have rear brake pads in good conditions, so we decided to take the Aprilia.

The Aprilia behaved well, very well indeed, I was expecting a different bike in terms of handling comparing to the Honda RS, of course the difference was there, one is for street/track use, and the other is exclusively built for racing, but the Aprilia gave me confidence on Track, and thats all that matters to me, to be confident on the bike handling capabilities.

In terms of performance, less low-grunt and much less top-end power, but the fun was there.

Bellow, therere some photos taken by professionals at the Circuit and also an onboard movie Ive made.

Didnt take the onboard camera this time, sorry guys, more videos on the next Trackday, probably on 2nd December 2007, this time Ill participating with Ricardo aswell, one of us will be riding the Honda RS 250R and the other, we still havent decided, but the choice is between the Aprilia RS 250 and our recent 4-Stroke aquisition, a Japanese Honda CBR 250RR 1992 model, 4-cylinder inline, 45hp and ~180 km/h top speed for ~158 kg.
