It took me a while at first to get into it and find the right line for me. It was very wet with rain all through the day on Saturday and sunny but still very muddy on Sunday. The course was quite a long one.
It had a very long straight at first with many big and varied jumps. 
Then it was into a left 180 berm which was very hard to cut. 
A step down into a step up took you to a very nice right hander.
It was a very wide turn with most people going round the berm to keep speed. 
A few more jumps took you to a hiped and slightly off-cambered corner to a left berm to the small finishing pedal.
My 4 moto's were pretty consistant on Saturday. I managed to get a couple 2nd's and a couple 3rd's. This to my surprise led me to the "A finals." The 3 other people in the final all were very fast down the first straight so I expected to be at the back going into the first berm. It was exactly this but the corners got me back up to them fast. I took the last corner wide to hit off a bank and pedal past on the inside of 3rd place. I happened to do this in a race before aswell with the same person. I was happy to see the same gap he left before to get the podium.
I felt a bit better going into the moto's this time as I knew what to expect already and it was not raining.
My 4 results went 2rd, 3nd, 3rd, 1st with a puncture in my second race. I was pretty sure this would lead me to the A-finals again... and it did. I got prepared for what was going to be my hardest race of the weekend. Depending on the result of everyone also determined who would take the series too. I got a bad gate again but I had the same plan. However, the curent series leader took a fall near the start . We all just managed to stay on ourselves and I stood in the number 3 spot. I tried taking the inside line that saved me before but I wasnt comitted to it as I was happy with another 3rd.
I was really happy with my weekend performance and I would like to train for 4X as well to see how competive I can really be.
Here are the podiums;
