It was 2Kg under at Snetterton, I fitted a spare caliper, no disc and a spare chain under the seat. But rules is rules and like most these days I had not the luxury of weighing equipment since my departure from Ricardo.

So after Snett, I decided if ballast must be added then might as well make it useful so went for a fully operational twin disc setup. Used Cadwell and Castle to get used to it. Then at Oulton made all my passes that mattered under braking at the same chicane. It was weighed and dyno'd after Oulton, with 160Kg and 48bhp.
