Talking Just saying Hi
Afternoon folks.

Thought I'd join and start the ball rolling for a dabble in the DD class next year.

I know a few of you guys from the Hottrax paddock as I'm racing in the Michelin Power cup this season after doing a couple of years in the endurance.

I'm getting the idea that a DD would be a great way to get some more track time as well as the Power cup, so I'm on the look out for a bike.

Also the Mrs, who is usually pit crew has decided that she should have a go at this racing lark too, rather than just putting tyre warmers on the R6.

So, at least one Class B bike, possibly 2 needed, not to mention a cuppa at Donington while I bother you with a hundred questions.

Cheers.

You may not be able to do the class B, you might have to start off on the A. I found this out after I basically did the same move. Check the regs.

See, told you I had lots of questions for you guys.

So the Mrs is ok as a total newbie in her rookie bib, but I have to go A class ?

Class B
aimed at those that are New to racing or haven't raced in any other road race class, although there is the exception of those returning to racing after some time out and have been given a Novice Licence by the ACU

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
