Hehe. There's a chap down the road from you, TP, who's retired now but got as far as being Bemsee GP250 champion in a long and illustrious amateur racing career. His year 2000 TZ250 cost £20k new, it ran on Elf racing fuel at £7 per litre, requiring a fairly skilled mechanic at every race-meeting (and in between) to keep it on song. He races a Caterham these days and it's probably a lot cheaper!
