Hi all and thanks for the quick replies! To answer some questions I am going to be staying in Breckenridge Colorado to start with, but might have to come straight to Utah depending on when I get to the USA. I believe the World of Speed is from 6th-9th Sept next year. To give you an idea of my riding abilities ( if I were to borrow a bike it would be good to know!) this is what I have been doing over the last 10 years of racing. I managed to win the 175 bantam championship in 2004 and have also achieved both second and third in other championships on various bikes including a 350 Ducati and a 250 Rudge. I race a 650 Triumph twin outfit at the present time. None of these bikes are that quick with top speeds of around 120 max. I have quicker road bikes than that, but racing does concentrate the mind! I am under no illusions as to my status as novice on the salt, but that is where you have to start.
To answer Seldom Seen Slim, I have tried to get to grips with how to go about doing this but am not really sure how easy or hard it is to sort it out, I have contacted USFRA to say what I wanted to do and have been told that it is possible. That's about it! However, I am not afraid to ask, which is what I am doing now. Thanks again for all the replies so far, please keep them coming because with your help I will be able to make this particular dream come true. Miki
