Ok so I have a crf 150 supermoto … that I got earlier this year … and Monday night pit bike night at Swindon Karting is mega … dripping with BSB/moto3 stars … both current and future … and a few old duffers like me getting in the way … beddington Traq (Croydon) is also good … Sat/Sun morning 9-11 … bring your pit bike and get your knee down ,… easy peasy. … a mate has a cheap pit bike and some slicks and we have a ball .
I am too old for minimoto … so its pit bike supermoto for me …
MUCH cheaper than track days …and I think more fun.
@D- Most tracks you can take your Own bikes but at Swindon it is MiniMoto’s Only and they all have GPS Tracking on them so you can see where you are in the Race and Lap Times etc.
I have rung around a few Places and Swindon looks the Best Bet for us. They are willing to sort me out a Discount once they Know how many people are coming so this is priced before Discount. I have chose a few possible Packages we can do, this is all dependent on how many want to do it.
Option 1.
3 Hour Team Endurance Event.
Split into Teams (2-5 Drivers)
Qualifying/Practice to Start
3 Hour Race with Open Pits so you can change drivers as and when you want throughout the 3 Hours
Trophies for top 3 Teams
£175 per Team (ie- £58 per person if in a team of 3)
Option 2.
Formula Race.
Minimum of 6 Riders, Maximum of 12. (Private use of Track)
10 Minute Qualifying
40 Lap Race
Trophy for 1st Place
£45 per Person
Option 3.
Super Grand Prix.
Minimum Group size of 13
5 lap Practice Session (per rider)
Qualifying, (4 Heats of 7 Laps)
Top 8 Riders go into 15 Lap Grand Prix
Trophies for 1st/2nd/3rd
Private Use of Track
£50 per Person.
Personally i think the Endurance race will be best as you get the Longest Track time, with the Formula Race coming in 2nd.
The Super Grand Prix is unfair on half the riders as Only 8 get to Race at the end!!
Let me know if you are 100% coming and i can arrange discounts and Dates.
I’ve Just been looking at Pictures of the Mini Moto’s and i didn’t realise just how small they are. I wouldn’t be able to do an Hour on them!!
So i don’t think we should do the 3 hr Endurance event i think we should doit as a 2hr Maximum
2 Hour Team Endurance Event. Split into Teams (2-5 Drivers) Qualifying/Practice to Start 2 Hour Race with Open Pits so you can change drivers as and when you want throughout the 2 Hours Trophies for top 3 Teams £135 per Team (ie- £45 per person if in a team of 3, giving 40 mins track time each)
1 Hour Team Endurance Event. Split into Teams (2-5 Drivers) Qualifying/Practice to Start 1 Hour Race with Open Pits so you can change drivers as and when you want throughout the Hour Trophies for top 3 Teams £110 per Team (ie- £37 per person if in a team of 3, giving 20 mins track time each)
