Boys,

Please keep your powder dry for the next week or so, till we can give you an update on how we are proceeding.

We have taken on board the comments that people have made with regard to tyre choice, etc and are in the process of finalising arrangements that should be acceptable to the majority.

Chris

Whatever control tyres are decided upon is fine with me.

Racing a Monster or SS would not be my choice either, but as these are the rules then I'll go along with them as I will follow any tyre decisions made.

As in fact not being able to use the tyres I already have will mean I have to go and buy a set of tyres prior to the first meeting, which following insuring my van and car on top of buying and preping a 600 is going to be outside my budget. Currently I have tyres I can race on at Cadwell so they are not a added cost.

kev, can't you blag some sponsorship for a set of tyres?
Surely you're in a position to claim to a supplier that you've got a good chance of winning! Maybe Rattler could sponsor you?!!

I'm in a similar position with a nearly new set of 208's on the bike, but don't have a problem with changing them if the gods say so.

tyres are tyres boys

race with whats decided and it will sort the men from the boys

i can never tell that much difference between similair tyres once scrubbed in anyway, its only a 70bhp monster so its not going to eat tyres up like a 748/996/r6/cbr/etc would...............
