Please Note
This is an opportunity to get out on track on a 250MZ as easily as possible for people who are seriously considering Mz racing. But don't get the idea that this is an arrive and drive thing. It's a lot more than that. You will not be a 'customer'. You will be a real life Road Racer, responsible for you, the bike and your own skin just like everyone else in the Paddock!The budget figure mentioned covers the various costs incurred for memberships, licences etc. and the costs the club incur in lending you a bike.
What the experts have to say:
Keith Code – Guru of the California Superbike School and author of A Twist of the wrist:- At my Cadwell School I was walking down the line of bikes waiting for the first track session. There were R1s, RC30’s, 916s… all the big toys you see on the race circuits of the world. There were also a couple of MZ’s. I didn’t knoew what they were but they didn’t look much like an R1 and I wondered how they would fare on the track. After I watched them throlugh some turns I decided they looked like fun! On day two I was buttonholed by one of the guys on an RC30 after his track session. He asked me to speak to the fellas on the MZ’s. He said they were passing him too close! I thought “Wow this guy must be really slow round the turns to be passed by those little MZ’s”, I wandered up to race control and kept an eye on them. The RC30 wasn’t slow; those guys on MZ’s were quick, very quick. In fact we have recruited one of them as an instructor with the Superbike school in the UK. The class is very much wanted and needed. (We don’t have it over here in the US). MZ’s are certainly a neat way to start racing.
