All,

Having read all threads with interest here I go;

This is a great idea and IMO suits members who, maybe like me;
- like riding on trackdays!
- always wondered about racing?
- limited ££££
- own a road bike, but don't want to ruin on track - Senna 1
- or bought an ex race bike, but don't want to race it - WSS 748RS

So I'm in and agree with the keep it simple philosophy. I'm no techy and just want to race a standard bike.

I someone wants to spend £££££ to win races then good for them!, everyone will see what enabled them to win - ££££ vs talent. Congrats to carbon fibre/overbore/stickytyre guy for winning the series! (Boring)

I want to spend very little and then race......if I come 4th or 44th I don't care, I will be living out my MotoGP fantasy and having fun!

We will all know who is riding what, so the 600/620 debate is irrelavent, let's include them all and have some fun racing.

I'm sure we have all been on track days and gone past or been passed by people on more/less expensive bikes, a one make series will reduce the £££ element but never eliminate it.

So turn the hard to the stop and have fun!

Oh and a question,

Can we enter as a 'Team' with two riders taking turns for rounds?

Phew.....

Chris.
