Newbie first question

Hi all.
I am sure to have loads of questions in the future but for now i will try and keep it short.

Got the bike.
Got the kit
Got my licence
Joined DSC (although membership has yet to arrive)

I want to do the DD race at Oulton on the 18th of July.
How do I go about getting an entry??? I do not want to miss out and end up watching.
Please advise.

Cheers.
Neil.

Welcome, nice bike, ex Fogg from last year is it?

New Era run the series, get in touch with them, via web and download an entry form for Oulton. DD races will be obvious on the form..

Good luck, good to see some more Class A bikes joining in. Just don't go too quick, you might upset someone!!

Class A?

Looks like an ss to me, isn't it a class B? But still, I wish my bike looked that good, It's almost a shame its gonna be raced/crashed/thrashed/blown up!

Very nice!

If you've got your ACU licence and you've joined the DSC, you'll need to make sure you've signed up for the DD series - email desmodue@ducatisportingclub.com and they will sort you out. You will be given a race number for you to use.

Once you've done that, you'll also need to join New Era MCC, as they run the DD series on behalf of the DSC. Contact details are on their website at http://www.neweramcc.org/ and they will send you their membership pack with your New Era card and a load of forms for each race round. Just fill in the forms (you put in your ACU and New Era numbers, along with your racing number) and send it all off. You usually get the entry tickets and cards the week before the race round.

Then it's a case of turning up, getting through scrutineering and not falling off

Good luck!

Welcome too from North of the border, new to the series this year too.

Only raced at Donnington so far, be out at Mallory but will miss Oulton.

Think the guys have it covered for you getting your entry in.
