Class A, is basically for anyone that wants to race with us.
we would even Let Rossi in if he feels the need to get pack on the top step of a podium

Another question then guys, if you can help. (Donington's still a long way off !)

I'm looking for a couple of bikes from what you've said, but obviously funds aren't going to go that far at this stage of the racing season.

Is it possible to enter a B class bike in the A class ?

The rationale is that I want to get a B class for her indoors to learn her trade on, but would look to race it myself until she's ready to have a go.

I'm comparing it to the endurace series, where you can enter the 1000 class on a 600, is it as simple as that ?

Apologies if this is the dumbest question you've ever heard !

Cant see why you cant, just means you will be down on power etc. but be careful of any mods eg adding adjustable forks as then it wont go into B class. Just need to have a white number board and chnage to yellow when back in B

Tbh starting in A or B as a first class isnt an issue, only that B bike are usually cheaper to buy being older etc so nothing stopping the missus racing an A bike, not like jumping off 100 hp to 180

My Class B bike will be up for sale at the end of the season

Yeh you can run a B class in A, think it was Mat Traynor in '09 that entered A on a B bike and broke the B lap record in the race but it didn't count in the records because he was officially in class A.
