Tut tut tut. You see, that would have never happened if you'd been

Well, I raced with Bemsee for 3 years and they are a very well
organised club. Race days are run like clockwork and its a fabulous
paddock atmosphere. Give them a call and they will be happy to help.
(www.bemsee.co.uk) - there is a forum there.

Bemsee are, though, highly subscribed so there can sometimes be
problems getting an entry at popular tracks if you arent doing a whole
season (priority is usually given to championship contesters). Its
also probably the most competitve club as its the biggest.

A 7R in Bemsee would be elligable for Powerbike (An open class where
GSXR1000's and R1's are the norm), Clubman 1300 (Same as Powerbike but
restricted to clubman licence holders only so a bit slower) and, err,
I think that would be it! You'd probably be just about the only 750 if
you did Powerbike TBH.

Most people start off in Bemsee doing the Rookie 600 (Supersport 600
class for novice racers) or Rookie 400 (similar).

Basically, if you can lap Brands indy in 49's you'll be up the front
of the Powerbike races. 50-51's midfield, 52's and slower down the
back.

 

I think that Derby Phoenix have a 750 class, which would be more suited
to the 7R.

They seem to have some kind of web presence:

it. Odd.

 

thanks.
