Not seen any threads about sprinting / drag racing RD LCs on here, (road bikes) has there been any meets of this kind before ? Wouldn't have a clue how to organize something like this but would be a real buzz to have a go ;D I know there is a sprint day at brighton some time in the year where you can run against something similar to what your'e running and get a timed run/terminal speed printout so you can see how good or crap yer bike is.

Been to york raceway many years back for the Top Fuel drag racing brilliant day. Just wondered if there's any more like minded RD nutters on here that fancy doing it, and if so....know how to organize it

Your'e right Norbo, sprinting is sooooo much cheaper than track racing (blow-ups cost about the same though ;D) Be great to run against some similar machinary, if it ever happens on here i'll be right up for it, but as i couldn't organise a pissup in a brewery, it's in the lap of the gods
