Re: First track day advice please
Well my NC35 track bike died last time out, total electrical failure. I think it was related to falling off it (RHS) and the loom got pinched or something though.
Apart from that, er my wife had the speedo stop working and er I once forgot to do up the lock nuts on the gearchange linkage so the bar fell off (and even managed to do it by where the photographer was)

Re: First track day advice please
The last race I turned up to with the bike accidentally restricted over 5000rpm. Didn't find out until first practice!
I had overlooked swapping out the hrc cdi for standard one (running with no clocks), d'oh!!
Bodged the wiring up and got on with the day, but very frustrating as it's a problem I should have picked up before I got there.
