Just to clarify, bike entry?

[cowboyz]

I am so getting the racing bug nd after sitting on the sidelines for far too long want to get out amongst it.

the bike in question will be my 1998 ZX9r. i think I got this sorted but appreciate ppl in the know just clarifying in case I missed something.

I think my bike is only eligable for F1 or clubmans. I dont really have an interest in getting in the way of the F1 bikes TBH.. I lap manfield in 1.20-1.23s now so putting myself out there with the big boys might just be such a fish out of water and lead to pissing everyone else off!.

So to get some experience and the taste of the bug... Clubmans is the only other class I can enter? At this stage im thinking its probably a good start anyhow.

You are correct , Clubmans and you will have a few fast bikes to play with.
Have a blast.

Clubmans would be perfect mate, Have fun out there.

awesome! right.. that being the plan then.. just checking out the calender and Im rostered to work for the next round but free after that. Ill have to decide if I can get the weekend off for a 2day event or if I just carry on after july.. that seems sooooo far away now!

I miss my 98 ZX9R...they are suweet bikes!!! If I were you mr cowboy, I would be thinking about buying my 2007 ZX6R and using that instead of the ZX9R as those are awesome sport tourers but unfortunately not so much a track weapon ;-)

From what i have read he loves that bike and you would be hard pressed to give him another bike! haha

Clubmens would be the ticket

I can completely understand his sentiments...the 98 ZX9R is an awesome piece of kit!

[cowboyz]

yep.. the 9 is staying! It is an awesome bike and yes... trackdays it shows its faults... but its so much fun......!!!

There is a 07 ZX10r on the horizon to replace the 9 as a touring bike (cause the 10r just seems like a fantastic tourer!) and the 9 will see out its days being ridden till I finally kill it.

I will contemplate buying a F2 bike if the gods (read.. wife) is nice to me and I get on alright with the racing gig. I might not like it.. or might find out I cant actually ride so for now, Ill just do with what I have.

Goodluck, Hope the gods smile upon you mate.
