Kepp in mind that cross entering other classes doesn't cost any extra so we normally enter any classes we're eligible

if you're on a 400 then enter it in F2 as well, on a 600 then F1 if you're on a 1000 well you're shit out of luck, motards then you've got F3 (maybe BEARs) F2 etc

I run two bikes and have done anywhere up to 10+ races for the day at this event, well worth the entry fee

I could be wrong but I think that started after a big run of racers flipping their bikes and sending them into the fences on the straights.

If any of you guys want a secure garage to house your bikes or race bikes for the night your more than welcome to mine, I'll even forget to feed our german shephard for you so she will be really pissed off and extra keen to acquire a wee snack

Dangerous sent me a pm last night asking if I could house a couple of Bikers for the night so....

If there is anyone in need of somewhere to stay and dont mind sleeping on my couch/ airbed/ stretcher your very welcome, and on the off chance that we run out of room in the lounge it looks like can borrow a caravan as well.

I'll even shout a couple of dozen beers.
