'Worthwhile' is a very subjective term, and I suppose it can mean different things to different people. If you are looking for very close racing with a very eclectic mix of bikes, very slick organisation and excellent camaraderie then the Thunderbike series certainly provides that. The Ducati 800S may not win but it certainly wouldn't be last

We have probably spent around £15K this season just to build and get the Buell competitive and have had a few 4th and one 3rd place with it, leaving us in 9th place in the series at present (although we have effectively missed 3 rounds). Has it been worthwhile? Not from a business or results point of view I suppose, but it definitely has been froma sporting perspective and has been great fun.

Depends what you want from your racing I suppose.
