If you don't believe me take a look at Dan Hegarty the young kid we are taking to national superstocks next year. He beat a club F600 champion on Pere Riba's ZX6RR with 130hp on his completely standard R6 cup bike, giving away nearly 30hp. This is the sort of talent needed to succeed in racing. Club racing is the bottom rung and if you can't win at club level even with a 25-30hp deficit you will never make it any further. I'm sorry if this is harsh but it's true.
As for the question yeh go for it, anyone can strip my bike at any time. Of course who picks up the bill for it being rebuilt at the tuner of my choice I don't know.
I've entered this series as I saw a nicely run series this year, I had enough of an open class where there were no rules and people were running ex bsb bikes, I could never afford to tune a bike that far or run it ! So the DD class is ideal for me, I will never go anywhere other than mid pack club racing at my age and I accept that so this looks like great fun  |
Just for fun huh...............on the no8 bike...LOL..u better remove those hi-comp pistons then............:P
