    I had a long career in Motorsports. I opened an email one morning that started out “ I have a Foggy Petronas project and need parts” I could not help but smile. I was a big fan of that project, no help with parts. Shame, we had made the originals. Made my day to see a few pics he had.

    Richard Jeffrey- thanks for the videos, looking forward to 04 BSB. Love that SBK era... any idea where might get full season/highlights of early naughties WSBK or BSB? I made it to WSBK Laguna Seca in 02/03 and would love to watch those in particular but all of it really... Bayliss, Hodgson, Edwards, Chili etc etc. Not to mention the bikes... what a great era... thanks again.

    “Aerodynamics are not important”. The bike became a beauty in the end. Still is. But such remarks certainly presaged the lack of results.

    Remember watching this back in the day.. It was a shame how the project failed. The bike looked and sounded great, but the engine design, power and then the change in 2003 allowing 1000cc 4 cylinders basically sunk the potential of the bike. It’s great to see the bikes they built for homologation finally seeing the light of day..
    Edit. Just remembering the first time I saw the FP1 bikes out on track.. they did a demo at Brands Hatch, Foggy was riding one.. I distinctly remember the noise it made and the flames 🔥😄
