This debate has thrown up some useful stuff. I have often heard mates talking about going racing and consulting the local club race sage, NOT me I hasten to add, only to have the wind taken right out of their sails when the sage points out some oversight in their choice of class.
One make type stuff can be cheap and teach you ace race craft but can be very competitive.
Some less restrictive bike classes can involve more outlay initially but the racing is a little less frenetic.
To chuck another question into the ring does anyone know of a company that hires out race bikes for racing rather than track days??
