2 people disagree. Dont worry, it has'nt come yet, maybe it never will!. Posted by rolly - Unregistered (13 days ago)
rolly how wrong can you be !!!! Three years in the making, the new British squad has called on a wealth of experience to get off the ground, and has been formed in conjunction with a major Chinese motorcycle manufacturer. As well as John Surtees, one of the major driving forces behind the project is Garry Taylor, who was boss of Suzuki's factory MotoGP effort for nearly 30 years before he stepped down in 2004. Taylor has used his network of influential contacts to get two-stroke engine specialist Jan Witteveen to design and build the new motor, while British experts Harris Performance have built the chassis. Witteveen was the man who helped turn Aprilia into the major racing force it is Posted by danum - Unregistered (13 days ago)
Surtees, Taylor, Witteveen... some great racing people gathered for this project. Who will be the riders? Smith in 2009? And what's with the Mickey Mouse girls in white playing with their mobiles Posted by The Morgue (13 days ago) Last Edited 13 days ago
