Chris Walker racing an F1 sidecar can only be good for the sport and MK Racing look forward to competing with him this year. That said John has a point rules are rules and should they be broken for the sake of the benefits they bring ? If you think yes where do you stop? My youngest son is an ace motocross rider , can he come and do BSB supersport this year? Jamie Whitham has a private pilots licence, do you want him in sole charge of your jumbo when you go on holiday in august? You get the idea. Said my piece now going to continue getting bike ready for April and see if we can whip Team Santander Salts ass .See you all at Silverstone for what looks like being a fantastic year.

Discretion and perspective I think that is Mike.
I reckon a bloke who has been racing as long as he has, on some of the machinery be has in multiple disciplines at the very highest level, might be able to ride a sidecar ok.
I've heard it's easy ;-) :lol:

Wow what a shock, I think its a good thing but If I were CW, I would have done a bit of testing first. He should be ok as SE said but if he's not that wont help the sport at all!

Couldnt agree more Steve I dont have a problem with the situation, think its good for the sport but just pointing out there is a principal involved which always causes some discussion :|

Why would people moan?? Oh yes............the FSRA connection probably. It can only be good for the general profile. If you dont like it, for the good of sidecars in general, wind your neck in and keep off the social media until it flops. THEN get stuck in. No wonder the sidecar's are up shit creek. Walker = more attention = more potential sponsors. It vaint rocket science. FFS!!! You cant please some people.

As usual the ACU gets the blame.
BSB run under their own rules.
