Sounds like a much better weekend!

Rattler 15-Aug-2006 22:51

God nose! Prob do both DD races on Sat and both on Sunday - that SV milarkey seems a bit too easy!!! ;)

Probably not attending this one. Never been before, won't get time to practice before the race weekend and got a lot on with touring on the road bikes and the DSC trackday and stuff :)

I was thinking of doing the DD races (2 of them) on Saturday and the SV650 races on Saturday (2 of them). Assuming there is a practice/qualifying for each, then that's a total of 6 times on track. And if my calculations are right it'll cost me £160. (£110 for first two races each day and £25 per race thereafter) Seems to me like there's your practice/learn Snetterton trackday equivalent!

Then on the Sunday just likely to do the two DD races at this stage.

NBs996 16-Aug-2006 14:40

I'll be at home watching it on telly.

Grib 16-Aug-2006 14:42

You pay for each day don't you? So £220 for two days first two races?

Right. The way I read it is £110 for the first two races per day. £25 each extra race.

So......

Saturday
2 x DD races = £110
2 x SV/SOT/F400 whatever races = £50
Total = £160

Sunday
2 x DD races = £110
Total = £110

Grand Total = £270

Granted that the FE trackday at Snetterton on the Friday is only £89, but I don't have to take another day off work if I just load my Saturday's racing. And at least by doing 4 races on the Saturday I get to practice not falling off at the first corner.

Thats what I was just about to send off for ... but ...
I work it out as:
2 x dd and 2 x sv on saturday = 160
2 x dd on sunday = 110
total 270

phil_h 16-Aug-2006 15:20

cool, I can go post my entry now :)

skidlids 16-Aug-2006 15:23

I decided quite a few months ago to give Snetterton a miss, back then is was scheduled as a single long race, since then things have changed through no fault of the DSC/DD but due to New Era trying a few changes to their Superclub format. So back in March when I decided I would not be going to Assen I also decide to give Snetterton a miss as I have already experienced those long boring straights on a 583 that was loosing a bit of its crispness as the race went on.
The upshot of this earlier choice was my decision to enter the NG Minitwins race at Pembrey just as I did on the same weekend last year. Where for my £150 entry fee I get to race on both Saturday and Sunday where I will be entered in 2 races a day, a 8 lap qualifier and a 10 lap final, I will also get at least two practices in either both on Saturday or one on each day or possibly a combination of both as I did last weekend.
I could enter a extra class but if I was spending the extra money I would attend the practice day on the Friday, probably just the afternoon session.

Only problem is having to be in on nightshift at 23:30 on the Sunday, then again at least my work place is on the way home from Pembrey

Should give a few more a chance to overtake me in the Class B championship

phil_h 16-Aug-2006 15:43

hmmm ... tell me again about that minitwin you're racing skids ???!!!

skidlids 16-Aug-2006 16:14

Well at Pembrey I am hoping to be racing both the 620 Class A bike all be it with differnt tyres (either supersport spec or wets) and the 750SSie, which I hope to have a grasp of its gearing by then and hopefully will have shed a few more Kilos off of it and added a shift light.
Next weeks DSC trackday should give me more info about both bikes and hopefully both bikes will be able to mix it with a few more of the SVs and some of the SoT bikes at Pembrey just like I did there last year and at Cadwell earlier this year.

CK keeps telling him :lol:

I reckon he will run out of steam by sat lunchtime let alone be able to keep awake by the end of the first lap of the first race on the sunday:rolleyes:

but at least he was kind enough to step in and help out:)

AK 16-Aug-2006 21:38

Just to clarify again that the 2 Saturday races will not count towards the Desmo Due championship points.

Thanks Paul. I'm not exactly worried about my current championship position and frankly just need all the race practice I can get! :-)

Dunno what he's complaining for as he's not even going, unless Dickie can make saturday but not sunday?

Ray 17-Aug-2006 11:29

Just make sure you get the lap record, the circuit might not be the same next year, there's changes afoot at Snett.

Dr J has a planning application in to upgrade the track and pretty much the whole site


Ray.
