I am up for Cadwell, Mallory, Donington at some point this year

What Group? Comfortable at inter in any of the above for an MSV or Nolimits standard track days

Petronas Syntium 800 eu 5w 40 semi-synthetic, i think is a car oil.

Car oils have different additives to bike oils. Car oils have friction modifiers in them to give good fuel economy. Bike oils have additives developed for wet clutches and and gear train lubrication

got one (may be 2) but dont have a firestorm to go with it

try these guys may be before you chop up a good set of cans

bad days happen

If it is any consilation, similar has happened to me several times: 1). Stripped and rebuilt a CBR600f3. Dropped it off the stand when finished and it topled over. Broke the repaired fairing and bent a few bits. 2). Classic track day on the VTR (freeride nick and beefy where there but in different g...

that's a bargain

Conspiracy theory - all set up by fuel companies Bio fuels have a shelf life (all fuels have a shelf life) and most of us have not burnt much in the last 18 months. It is actually mentioned that biofuel tanks need periodically draining and refilling fresh fuel to prevent degraded fuel contaminating ...
