As stated in previous mails a set of Diablos are available from Holbeach at £145 loose or £160 fitted, which from previous info seems a good deal

This price is subsidised and will be held for the season barring any major price increase from Pirelli due to exchange rates etc.

Holbeach do not have a monopoly but they do provide a service at race meetings with stock available.

As they have to pay most if not all race circuits for the space in the paddock it is a very good deal.( can be £1000 for a weekend)

I have spoken to Mark and he is prepared to bring extra sets to meetings but if as at Donnington people order tyres and do not collect/pay for them or have them fitted he will use the limited space in his truck with tyres he can sell.
At the end of the day he has a business to run and the cost of 2/3 fitters plus fuel etc over a weekend is not cheap these days.

These tyres have performed well over the past seasons, the RC have looked at alternatives and will do so in the future as tyres develop, but at the moment these are the best available for the series.

Despite rumours of favours, none are requested or recived from any members of the RC, we only have the interests of the entrants in anything we do- and do this to the best of our ability with the time available.

We can always do with help in running the series / club so if you have anything posative to contribute - Please step forward, all help welcome
