who cares....i'd have just been goin round screaming "I'm on a mille.....wooooo" but that's me

does the mille fair up as well as the 4 cylinders at brands?
In a word. NO!!
I had 153 BHP on that Mille (which is a lot for a mille) and I was still getting gaped by over 1.5 seconds on the back straight by the 4 cylinder GSXR's etc etc.
Some of them had 200 bhp!
I was hoping for a wet race on sunday in the powerbikes as my lap times were the same as theirs on the saturday when I was in the Supertwin Race.
Turns out it was bone dry on sunday and I only managed to finish 18th starting from 26th, where as on the Saturday against only twins I started lasttt (about 35th) and finished 8th.
Here are some pics of the MRO RAce on Sunday.

imagine going round some of them corners at nearly 90. thats what straights are for, to increase the average. i bet if i went there id get an average of about 35mph if i didnt crash.
It is a very Fast Circuit!
Back straight is good for 150mph.
The the corners are very fast too! :twisted:

It depends on what funds you are looking to Put in.
Its going to be £15K per rider for next season and thats counting on about to Run in the MRO powerbike tour. And that is to be part of a Sponsored team that supply eveything for you.
You would want to start a little lower to gain confidance on the track and race craft.
I admit I am lacking some of that myself. I know I am a fast Rider, but its the block passing and race technique I need to build on.

why dont u do the r6 cup if your spending 15k or do you like being the boss ! :D
Cos the R6 cup is on standard bikes and it costs £25K next year.
I am looking at Running in the MRO Powerbikes.
I wanna carry on riding superbikes rather than supersport.
£15K will get me everything I need including Bike/s, Van, Tools, Tyres, Spares etc etc etc. I could do it for even less if I stay at Club level. I only spent less than £5k this season but didn't do that well as I didn't have the cash for new tyres, tuning etc etc.
I am looking at £15K it will get me a place in RiOt racing and then they will supply everything I need in any championship all year. plus being in a team is a better package. I wont have to get my hands dirty! :wink:
