Saturday:
15-20 minutes qualifying
10-14 laps superpole race

Sunday:
10-14 laps championship race
10-14 laps championship race

The length of the races being dictated by weather conditions, crashes, the usual etc. Being Bemsee it's normally very well run and smooth.

Budget...last year on the SV650 I spent about £12k in total. A full season on the 800 will be about the same. New Super Corsas every weekend. Depending upon circuit fees are anywhere between £160 and £250-ish (Brands).

I loved MRO - much more professional and a very high std of competition - riding with the best really. The problem is to be competitive you need to be having fresh tyres on a regular basis and you can't get away with a bike that's a shed or even mediocre.

HTH.
