well you need to get hold of the administrater ASAP,not sure how it works regarding cash,but debtors are usually the last on the list to get paid out unfortuntaley.hope you can get something sorted.
Haha like the sentiment jase/jimbo but depending how the rest of the year goes if we lose all momentum I may just call it a day cos having months off will only result in going backwards when we finally do get out on track again. Its all on ice at the minute. Gonna keep the bike but enjoy a summer holiday with the missus and have a think
We're not sure what we are doing as the Army team yet. We want to stay racing endurance as the Army sprint team runs in Thundersport. It's a case of waiting out on the team manager then deciding where to go. The team is especially gutted as currently between the 4 army endurance teams we are T1 - 2nd Clubman & 3rd National 1000 T2 - 1st National 600 T3 - 7th Clubman 1000 T4 - 1st Rookie & 5th clubman 600 (really bad Snet round for T4 dropped us from 3rd to 5th clubman, we we're lucky to finish with 2 broken bikes and 1 broken rider) Personally; I've got my shoulder operation tomorrow so I'm out of action for at least 6 weeks, after that I'll bang in a few track days to get up to speed again and then maybe give No Limits a blast towards the end of the year but undecided yet. A few of the guys are looking at North Gloucester as it's most guys local club and they race Castle Combe and Thruxton which are both near to Tidworth.
Don't mean to put a downer but iv lost thousands when companies owe me money and go under u don't stand a chance everyone else gets paid before u it's all down to the administrators now to decided were any left over money goes if there's any left unless u paid by credit card likes coo by said they can help get it bk for u shot times feel for u lads tyke and wedge iv often thought about payin for a season with nlr coz it saves a few quid shit when this happens tho good luck lads
Damn thats not good really feel for you lads that have paid up for the season I hope you get something back.
That's not him it was at Brands but it's Johnboy who rode wedgies bike in all his kit after he bust his collar-bone

Saw this earlier - JDV might enter into HT1000 and go for the championship I really hope they don't start mixing classes like they did at HT... de values the race IMHO. you boys will just have to fit into our perfect little set up ha ha
don't think so buddy (well in solos yet anyway) think they are adding a class in endurance for the HT boys to contest as otherwise they are half a season down. Harsh but tbh - why should it matter, they chose HT at the start of the season so should consider it lucky if there is space in NLR. Hope NLR don't change the format as it clearly works against what HT were doing, but would be great if every grid is full at every round much like Donny, just makes better racing.
My personal view of what i think will happen: It's a nice thing for NLR to do, they're definitely thinking towards the future and getting the HT guys into their series without screwing up their current racers. I don't see the sprint racing changing as it obviously works at NLR and most HT sprint racers can slot straight into this format. The endurance racers are the real issue as NLR are likely to be the only domestic endurance championship next year. It therefor makes sense that they will likely want to have the 'ACU national championship status' that HT did have. I'd expect the endurance classes to change next year to fit this (National, clubman, rookie or similar) if this became the case but they've already stated the only changes for this year. I don't know what the modern classic, ducatis and other guys will do if they're not on standard type 600/1000 cc that fit into the current NLR classes - possibly go elsewhere.
Pretty much what they have in endurance now mate.... You have to have diff classes in endurance. So no issue with that. I just hope they don't mix the grids too much to try and accommodate classes. It's great lining up on a 35 bike grid and knowing you've beat everyone you've beat over the line by merit and not cc!! Or even worse cc and license type. No offence but in some cases so many classes in HT races and all you got to do is not come last in class and your picking up a trophy? Think it's a bit hollow tbh.
Mark@NL isn't stupid,he'll have seen,and read the issues with HT,quite sure he wont be making the same mistakes.
Agreed. But let's hope he doesn't let commercial gain cloud his judgement.... Done right it'll be mega. He's nearly maxed out the classes anyway. Only thing he could do is allow more classes to completely fill each grid or reduce race duration.
one thing that NL are very very good at is listening to what people think/say.they have their ear to the ground and are very active on forums+FB in one way or another (I like to keep him abreast of whats going on generally on the forums ).
