Previous post regarding best track day tyres has now resulted in good news. We run two bikes in the Irish road racing series and a big thanks goes to Phil at Dunlop for the kind provision of some race rubber for the T350.
Also thanks to Dom at TVR power for the rack shimming advice and to Heath Briggs for the spyders and his continued advice, service and generally chilled attitude.
All I need now are some Nitrons to complete the package.
Anyone got a set they no longer require or know of any for sale?
Keep your eyes opened for Darren Burns in the 250 + 600 classes this year on the SGAS Northern Ireland Ltd bikes.

If you're exploring the limits on track, you may find stiffer springs are also worthwhile - Guy at Nitron will supply a choice to suit along with their dampers. Although you'd be paying new prices, the dampers would be matched to the stiffer springs, saving you paying again if you uprated later. Ride still seems just as good on road, when on soft damper settings. My set was around £1100 plus VAT direct from Nitron.

I've got a pair of front dampers I had for a track day special tuscan which you can have for a sensible price. pm me through my profile if you want more details. sadly i don't have any matching rears, only the fronts.

Thanks for the comments tail slide appreciated. Spring and damping obviously need matching for use as well as corner weighting/ camber, toe in out. Glad to know they are driveable on road at soft settings.
