You have it backwards, though. You race it and place well, and
then you get sponsors.
Am sorta thinking that with my profile as an Entertainer, that i might be able to get some $$$ support through the novelty factor of me actually being a minor personality of sorts, who actually races, might garner some support, especially as i "Entertain" a minimum of 150000 people a year in my job as a sorta high profile DJ.
But before any of that can even be entertained in anyway, i need to get myself to a track, and see whether i actually have the skills, and the kahuna's to post some sort of respectable lap times...and not just at one track.
I consider myself to be a reasonably skilled rider on the road, but as for the track, getting the knee down, and staying upright, that's a hole new kettle of fish.
At this point, i just want to get the bike, ride it, learn as much as i can from other people with track experience...and see where it takes me.
You never know unless you have a go...and i have decided it's time to "have a go", at the very least at getting out on the track with a bike that is set up for such shenanigans!
Am going to leave the bike pink, the more i think about it, the more i like it, and it seems that by the responses in this thread, i am not alone!
Anyway it suits my DJ persona as an extremely cheesily branded idiot who wears a Cow print cowboy hat & vest, sunglasses at night, whilst not being afraid to make a complete tool of myself in front of big crowds!
But all wank aside, i just wanna ride the thing....on the track, which is the proper place to ride fastish...where if you do lose it, there is medical attention on hand, no cagers to spoil the party, and most importantly, no risk of getting booked for being an irresponsible idiot on public roads...
I must be growing up, and getting sillier all at the same time!
Thanks for all the support re my purchase everyone.
