Should you REALLY respect and like one another THAT much ? yes when in the paddock why not? on the track everyone gives 100% and does everything to get one place higher up there is no quarter given in the racing thats for sure. Why would you not race in any other series ? for me the DD paddock atmosphere makes the series and it would be a massive come down. to know a cuple of dozen people really well and know they would all helpyou is a great feeling Do you feel you as a group are a little 'insular' in the paddock ? not really, im sure most individual series stick together to a certain extent, its only natural whendiscussing your own races etc Don't you think you're missing out in a lot of ways in not mixing so much with the rest of New Era. ? not too much, race days are by their nature quite frantic affairs so there is not too much spare time anyway. i dont always get time to see all the DD'ers let alone anyone else. How do you think a rider who finished 10th for example (i have no idea who that was by the way) would do in a Novice 600 race with BEMSEE on a bike of their choice... (no, not a 1000cc  10th that'll be me again. very difficult to say but i would say the standard of racing in DD is actually quite high and getting better all the time. im sure anyone watching at assen wouldn't have thought most out there were still novice racers. ) | |
