Racing for just one season?

Ah so its for looking good whilst surfing?

Look at the Peugeot Partner (High top LWB) as a (much) cheaper alternative to the T4. Its a "larger" smaller van and will get better MPG than the T4.

The transit, Vivaro and relay are all very good every day vans (basically any of the 2 litre turbo, front wheel drive vans). The Ford Connect High top LWB is an excellent big small everyday transport van.

Don't foprget to look at a Minibus too. Some bargains to be had.

... and it might be worth just hiring a van for the weekend if you aren't going to do may meetings and just use your car for everything else.

Sweet! Keep us posted

Bike looks secure, assuming ferries and trip to West Yorkshire for collection all goes well.

Still trying to confirm entry....but one step closer

btw, an absolutely awsome read.

Well, I went and entered a series mainly in Belgium as I'm still in Holland and don't know where I'll be next year and wanted to scratch that racing itch. The follow up thread is here, first race for me is Tuesday:

Hey guys some really good stuff here, just wanted to compliment you all, says everything about racing and starting and i can related to each and every point made.

If i were to add one, dont worry so much about your position in the race in the first and maybe the second year, if you finish and get a signature, then you achieved a great deal, your race is with the person in front off you, aim to beat her, oh and him i suppose, one you beat him, aim to beat the guy in front of you, and so on.

Racing is adictive, and i love it, made a few friends along the way to which is a bonus

best thing though to remember is just enjoy it to the Max
