Computy has struggled to download info on this race series....
...soooo - could i enter this as an absolute novice.



Commence laughing & commenting now!

Are you a novice or not. If you are you can race in class B or A. If you have raced recently in another series then you are not a novice and class A is your only option.

hiya - i'm distinctly novice. I've never raced a bike before, but have spannered for a BSB team 16 years ago! Seriously considering dipping my toes in these murky waters...cheers!

[skidlids]

yes James you will be classed as a Novice if you apply for a ACU road Race licence, as such you would be entitled to race in either Class B or Class A

Do you still have a job with the local HG

..er, except you'll be at least half a lap ahead of me, dammit! seriously considering where to rustle up the £4k i reckon i'll need to do this justice.....

Meanwhile, in reply to his royal skidness - nope - escaped HG about 6 weeks ago, mainly due the carve up of staff from closed shops meant buggerall shifts for me. Damn glad to be back in f/t work again now!

Brief update - finally pulled finger out, put car up for sale & applied for DSC membership. Will wade through acres of paperwork till that's acknowledged, then do Desmo membership, and whatever else it takes to get the ball rolling to arrive on the grid.
Provisionally getting race ready bike from Coppersaucepipe very soon ( need to have tidying frenzy so there's room in stable for another bike - erk!)
Hope to see y'all soon...
