Someone please race me!
 
Well with next to no time to go it looks like I will be racing in Moto Grande at Brands. :o
The interest in C1 and Supercup is unfortunately almost non existent so my choice is very limited and not racing is not an option. :(
I have even been looking at Golden Era Superbikes with Thundersort GB but the best answer I can get from them is "we have lots of interest"
Looking at the lap times from last years MG I reckon a mid pack finish is possible on the 996, not that it matters. ;)

To make things worse I have just got back from picking up an exhaust off the guy who bought my DD bike, I so wanted it back. DOH.

Anyone want to lend me a 620? :)

Yeah Neil come back and play with your real mates, Ron may wish to part company with his, not in the same style as he usually does, you understand. :lol:

Cranker V2 04-Feb-2012 18:05

Pieman, there is more than lots of interst in the Thundersport golden era . Good grids filled quite easily.

PDL 04-Feb-2012 20:38

You can race with Wirral, Darley Moor or even NGRRC

bradders 04-Feb-2012 20:46

I think you will fing NGRRC only do proper tracks unless you don't class Thruxton as a proper track

bradders 05-Feb-2012 15:30

personally, I'd like you to get a 620 so I can see if I can get near your back yard ;)

Ghost 05-Feb-2012 19:48

Me too.

Spjallen 05-Feb-2012 21:54

Get a 620 Pieman. Get back down to that exhaust fella and buy your old bike back. We need you in the paddock to defend your title.

Jolley 06-Feb-2012 08:32

Unfortunately. I need to sort a few things out this year, and racing is about 5th on the list. Rather than make a half arsed effort at racing, I thought I'd give someone else a chance... Maybe someone that didn't get around to sorting a bike, that fancies something they could win the championship on. Plus, the bike doesn't deserve to be sat for another year. It is a pity, because I had just about finished my list of improvements

dunlop0_1 07-Feb-2012 11:34

Well things are looking up for racing Supercup. Just got off the phone with Dave Mabbut and he told me there are 25 registered riders for Supercup. The series will definitely run even if it's along side Supebike, Triumph Challenge
and C1.
Ok only 4 entries so far but with 25 registered I'm sure more will come and play by the closing date. Also with me and possibly some ex DD'rs I'm sure the number will rise even more. Fingers crossed.

:D

bradders 07-Feb-2012 18:52

they'll be someone to race, I'm sure ;)

Sorry to hear that Ron, looked forward to seeing you out on her this season. Good luck with the sale, & don't forget the item ;)
