I rode a dealer entry, I finished 23rd and 21st respectivley. Our bike was a crash damaged demonstrator that I rebuilt in just three weeks, working in the evening and on my days off to complete.

The only modifications I could afford to make to the bike were a small airbox mod and a set of Remus DP pipes.

I managed to find a set of race fairings in the USA.

The bike suffered massive clutch slip on the straights and bottomed out in the old hairpin.

I ran stock road bike suspension and standard road bike gearing.

I would like to do everything within the rules of this series to make the bike more competitive.... however funds are limited.

The main point of this whole series is supposed to be about how good you felt whilst you were racing.

I had a smile on my face the whole weekend, I'm not fast and my bike is not fast. I still had fun.

I cant believe some of the things you have said in this thread. Jealousy is such a negative thing. It will tarnish your karma, it will make you fall off.... Geoff took the time in testing on Friday to show me around the circuit, he showed me were I could go faster and where I could brake later.

I didnt ask him, he just offered. That man is egoless.

Grow Up.
