But it cetainly is an interesting option as most of the long established clubs have a pretty full race schedule and are unlikely to be able to add one extra class at most meets let alone two.


I can't speak for Hottrax and certainly don't know the planned Anglesey schedule, but I will say that half of the Hottrax rounds have been reduced to one day meets instead of two this year. Anglesey is still two days, and there will be the Supermonos and a Motogrande class open to all comers, usually around 20-25 laps. Pembrey and one Snetterton round, two dayers and 4 Motogrande races on the Saturday. Make of it what you will.....

Last year, it was sometimes the case that the Saturday morning was billed as a half day "trackday."

Sticking my neck out, I'd say that if there was another class of sprint races involved, everyone would do free practice and qualifying on Saturday, maybe some sprint races and probably one of the 3 hour races. Sunday morning could then be used for a short free practice, some more sprint races, followed by the 6 hour.

Well I have just got in after a very long day in Bologna yesterday and have to say it gave me that wonderfull belly laugh that you sometimes need in the morning!

Dont know who made the phone call to Thundersports, but they wern't talking on behalf of the Club!

Well... I might as well fess up! I did, indeed, speak to DORNA about DD. I merely mentioned share of tv revenues, split sponsorship deals, development budget caps ($5m/yr) and body-painted venezualan brolly-dollies for all riders and, quite unsurprisingly, they told me to "**** right off!"..... :lol:

Some organisers don't even know they're born!

Spoilsports, sounds like a very reasonable request :)
