| An excellent point made.
Suppose we go with wets, why would a potential newbie spend £2500 on a 15yr old DD bike, plus the additional costs of a set of wheels (at an inflated cost due to supply and demand), generator for warmers (no brainer that they would be next) to be put on track against modern classics (for example) which have twice the power and far greater acceleration and speed? Yes we would still be racing in our own class but even the best DD riders would get lapped by a decent bloke on a CBR600.
Or we stay as we are and the newbie goes for a £900 class B with no extra cost. With wets we'd be just another race series, as we are we're a one-off with low budgeting as a huge plus point.
IMHO the 2 Kevs and Trudi want to stay with us but without the 5h1t they've had to endure recently, I hope they stay even if just to advice their successors. It's safe to say without them DD wouldn't be here now and defo wouldn't be the same without them
It's not the size of the dog in the fight that matters, but the size of the fight in the dog.
