Yep. Season ticket is bought by the company and badged as "advertising". Ironically it helps with IR35 too as they like see spend on advertising as abort off proof that you're operating outside it.

Trackdays has my company name all over the bike

Racing I'll change the team name to "my company racing" and get it in the programme as well as on the bike.

If you use your head amd think of a way to allocate it as something other than trackdays then yes. Try not to shout about it too much though as I'd prefer not to get investigated.

Blank canvas, let's start again.

I want this to look good this time so I'm going to pay a guy, well maybe. I got these if the eBay discount cones through for £160, I'm a little pessimistic to there quality. If they feel ok I'll get them done professionally by the guy who done my helmet, he can't fk up straight lines. If not, it's down to the woods.

I have a slight ambition of doing one race at Knockhill if I get into the 55s. Is there regulations as to where to put your number or how big it should be. This is just pub talk at this stage tbf.

I'm not getting into paint schemes. I'll be sorting mine this year, but that's going to one simple colour, as anything else just results in me smashing it up.

If you're going to do a race, then you need to get your race licence sorted before anything else. They have lots and lots of regulations about lots and lots of things, size, font, colour and colour of background are but four of those rules

I can't remember it being that strict on colours and loads of us used non standard tarty numbers, it's a guide anyway. Which club are you looking at?

Colour just simple single colours with the odd graphic. Easier to repair

Point noted, as I said, its just pub talk the now, utter nonsense. People are right to mock if they choose.

It's your first race. Finish last and build from there.

Nice one! I'd go for one colour too, that blue is very nice and maybe use the silver for decals.
My mates R1 is all blue and looks nice like that.
Did you buy them last night with the 20% off? Discount should have shown instantly when you put the code in at the checkout.

The beauty of fibreglass is you can reinforce it from the back if it seems flimsy.

What about Ford RS purple? Great colour.
