The harsh truth is that at 98kg, there is no way you'll be competitive in TKM Extreme. You'll find yourself losing around .75 - 1 sec per lap purely on weight. The TKM heavy class is not run anywhere at club level, only at the annual TKM festival. My advice would be to look toward the gearbox classes, where the weight will make less difference.
