depends what you are doing; racing or trying to be competitive. Minus bike cost, I worked out c10k for a season all entries, travel, extra test days, tyres, extra few bits like spare wheels, plus 1k for crash damage. But that would have been wobbling around at the back, not competing with the mad men at the front. |

ha yep helped a little but the front was the hazard ;) back in the spirit of DD - I took some advice from Mr 'make it fit' Skids and cut the springs down removing the progressive elemnet of them and the messed with spacers with the help of Chris P at Brands (I think) and its made a world of difference, it almost goes where I point it now! :lol: I think this is also what would make newbies like me be attracted to the series; lots of helpful advice as hands on help to get you going. |

Trouble is that you could describe such a callendar as "geographically limited"! For the most part there are no completely right answers on what the best choice of tracks is, the Club has always endevoured to provide access to the best range of tracks that we can negotiate, so the priority has always been to try and get Brands Hatch, Oulton Park, Cadwell, Donnington, etc and in particular to give riders the opportunity to ride differing types of track. Part of the problem is that I think we will find that the majority of tracks are actually south of Manchester, which does tend to favour the Southerners! |

Well it's not just the majority of tracks that are south of Manchester, but also the majority of England, perhaps 3/4 is South of Manchester. Throw in economics, demographics and access and it makes sense. Chris could you let me know if there are any sponsors this year? I remember in 2008 when I did a round there was Shell oil, just wondered if we needed any other decals on the bikes other than the DSC? |

Kev (Skidlids) is your man to answer that and supply the stickers! |
