Nice one Kev, I've put them all in the calendar

Along with minitwins dates, thunderbike dates and of course, the most important - DESMO DUE dates

It's quite a full calendar now!

[phoenix n max]

Hmmm -

I could do Pembrey March ( with thermals) and thats about it !! Except Thruxton but then again a ickle monster will be lost around there I think.

[skidlids]

Lin I am hoping to enter the March meeting at Pembrey and am toying with doing the Feb practice if I can find a big enough heater for my van. I will also be firing a entry in for Thruxton in Minitwins

[phoenix n max]

Means i'll have to prep Max before I go away cos there won't be time when I get back. I guess I should join just in case. Can't de feb cos not here.
If we get the new bike prepped too then I know someone who will also want to do March.
Hmm will speak to him later and see what he thinks. In meantime i'll go do my membership. Tis all practice afterall

[phoenix n max]

As for the heater - we will be nice and warm in the caravan - we could find a spot in the corner I guess

Oh hang on - I have one of those little gas heaters I bought for the trailer tent it's like a mini calor type one and takes gas cartridges. You can have it if you want? Throws out plenty of heat for inside a van.

[phoenix n max]

Hmm - now minitwins would mean sticking a lid on Max's airbox is that right ?
Sot ?

However just been offered a 900 to race in SOT so i'll do that I think. (thank you )

Membership is only £18 which is good but £30 a day hire for transponder

Off to buy tyre warmers now

Lin the cas cartridge heaters didn't work last feb, they were to cold -4 celcius inside the vans.
Yep Minitwins requires un altered air box, Sot means you are on the front rows of the grid with the minitwins lined up behind, OK if your on a 900 maybe not such a good idea on a 583.
As for Tyre warmes I have one spare set (Was 2 spare sets but sold the HWW ones on Ebay last week) so you could borrow some.
Now would the other person that would like to join in at Pembrey have been on our Llandow trackday with us ???
Not sure if Andy will be interested after the tragic events there last year that he was involved in. Best I give him and Damo a call and see what they are planning for next year.
Got the Llandow lap record holder coming over on Saturday so may see if we can arrange hire of the circuit again for a bit of coaching, I'm sure Tommy would help out as well.

[phoenix n max]

Yes Kev - he did come to Llandow - and count me in on the coaching front.
I'll do sot on the 900- I'll still get swamped come first hairpin
Think i'll test the airbox theory on the Dyno in Jan and see what it does

[skidlids]

According to Bike Sport News NG now have another Pembrey meeting the dates of which are the 20th and 21st of May.

I'm sure Dallas will be pleased with this and hopefully it will also suit Garry Smith.
Also means I can do a couple more Minitwin rounds funds permitting.
