    If that's your budget, I suggest that you treat the entire paddock to a big bowl of ex-lax chili the evening prior. A successful endurance team requires proper strategy.

    I was once a "hired gun*." A friend asked me to ride an endurance race on his FZR400. First time ever on a four stroke race bike.

    Every time I rolled off the throttle, I thought the damn thing was about to seize. It scared me.

    I was second in line to ride. Luckily (for me), the first rider crashed during his stint. End of opportunity. Thank goodness.

    Four strokes? They don't pay me enough to ride those damn things. Paraphrasing The King, of course.

    * - He asked, I said OK.
