We've also added the carbon/titanium gravel clearing unit which uses radar to detect and clear gravel and servo controlled arms to direct you back on track should the unthinkable happen ...

Nothing out of the ordinary really, standard bike in the paddock I would have thought?

No?

You're never gonna be competitive in DD with that lot...you're gonna need one of last years 990cc V4's as well, I've heard they've got a few hanging around in the factory.

Or you could wait until they come up on eBay if you're strapped for cash

At the current exchange rate that's a bargain. Far cheaper than the magnesium casings and long-stroke crank plan.......

Otei 21-Dec-2006 00:07

I reckon I could make room in my suitcase for one of those!

We looked into the rocket fuel question Charlotte but the problems of keeping the liquid oxygen liquid with the neccessary thickness of the tank walls, compressors etc added to the problems with handling the nitrogen tetroxide and hydrogen peroxide and the corrosiveness of these meant that the ACU and the circuits weren't keen. One little crash-especially on the first lap-meant that best case scenario the track got disolved, worst case the resulting explosion removed the track(and everything within about a 1 mile radius) completely...........we will try to overcome these small difficulties for 2008................:lol:
