I like the idea of that as I like you have never been on a race track .. Snetterton is about 10 miles from me so that's the track booked just need the bike  |

Where should we take it Cadwell park or Owlerton and try it on the speedway track (does anyone know how to drift round a speedway circuit ..Crouchy ? ) Graham beat me to it were going to Snetterton to get some practice in for taking that Norton round Donnington  |

Brilliant idea Loz and your right how hard can it be, just hold the throttle open and tip it in  Just a few asides a lot of the road race teams use Kirkistown for shakedown tests so it must be a suitable venue, plus if you want to be the next Joey I think you need to immerse yourself in the culture that produced him and other great road riders and you need to try and pick up the accent. So that's decided then the new Superdream Forum UK Classic Race Team will be based in Northern Ireland all those in favour say aye Loz you fire on with the build and when it's finished I'll send you the address to send it to, sorry I forgot to add I've just appointed myself team manager. :)So get the finger out Loz we've races to get to. I think we should appoint either one of the forum youngsters or one of the forum fatties as rider as both bounce better, however we may have too few of the former and a glut of the latter |

forum fatties as rider..... how did you know, we haven't met?
lots of money needed for added lightness, titanium bolts for a start.......loose the k/start parts and elect starter........bespoke "flywheel" and ign........etc etc etc but an interesting idea.......a 6 stone "intelligent ballast" rider needed so that counts me out on both counts
i'll be team groupy! |

I'll have a bash Loz, you need to lift the pegs though or they would be ground away after 2 laps  |

What a FANTASTIC idea Loz!!!!! Count me in mate - most definitely............. I'll bring the team Motorhome - fully equiped with workshop and covered garage....I kid you not!!!!  Seriously - I think this is a great idea, and one we can all take part in. Thank you Loz for suggesting it and putting up the bike. |

as some know I have a 250 kicker to start on,but after seeing them pics of the classic honds racing in wales,i got thinking,i have a spare 400 lump brakes forks etc,sould I build a forum race bike for us all to try our hand at being the next joey Dunlop.i for one have never been on a race track, but it carn't be that hard to go fast round bends 
plus we can use young tel as our test rider,you know just to make sure nothing falls off,before we get on it.your thought please
