DD is not just CHEAP racing.....there are bikes out there that have had well over 5k spent on them......and there are rounds which have cost people well over 500 quid to enter........racing is not cheap...dd is not cheap....but it is one of the most cost effective ways to go racing.............
cheap....i laugh at that
