Has anybody on here tried this?
I saw a poster for this and was wondering what this is like?

I’ll try get my mate’s opinion on this, as he used to race 'em few years back… i think it was an MZ ETZ that he used to race.

On phone with mate, and will type what he says:
"Get into it, it’s fun… It’s really intense, where did they see the poster?.. I raced unfaired MZ ETZ 250’s, i think they’re called ‘Scorpions’ or something… we’re talking mid to late 90’s. A friend of a friend started off doing it, they knew i was interested in racing, and back then i was quick, so they let me have a go… first couple of races i was young, stupid = quick and dumb, so wasn’t that successful. Take it for what it is… an adrenaline sport, but immense fun. Admit to yourself, there’s a chance you’ll come off, but if you can get into it, it’s brilliant… If you get to ride someone else’s bike, wring the neck out of it…
Thanks to the experience, i won’t do trackdays on normal bikes anymore, i used to sh*t it, actually hate it doing trackdays on my own bike, probably coz i didn’t have much money, and knew i’d be jeopardising my ride back home…"
That’s basically gist of what my mate said… actually, I’m intrigued now… where’d ya see the poster?

From what I’ve seen in the bemsee paddock before, it looks like a right crack. The bikes are so simple it makes you laugh when you see them, but the fun they have, you can just imagine as they fly by… I believe one of our new membmers, Jonesy is racing them this year as well, Jonesy?
Nice one, cheers Barry!
thanks, sounds a laugh, have to go back now to see if they are still looking.
