This class is NOT for your middleweight 600cc inline 4 cyl. The last 2 races/rounds in this class at Buttonwillow were ruined by guys that entered this class and didnt belong.

Just a reminder

I believe the opener, this was resolved prior to green flag. Am I mistaken?

The software used to tell you which classes your bike was eligible for during online registration. Is this not the case any longer?

Just to be clear, you are saying the 600s smoked you? :rofl I don't have a dog in the hunt. It doesn't matter to me. Rant on!

You should stick to posting in the "Couch Racers Corner" section. Most fans of any sport dont know wtf they are talking about.

He was dq-ed but after the race which did nothing for race itself.
Instead racing 3 racers on 700's were slowed down dicing with 600.

Ahh got it. From conversations at BW, pretty sure he won't make the grid next round.

I am pretty sure this guy will not. Question is who will be next :)

W...Wh....Wha.....What.....:teeth

so a newbie signs up for the wrong class, he gets berated so much afterwards for battling with bikes with 40 less horsepower, he won't come back the next round?

ummmm....He didn't get berated. In fact, apparently he was allowed to race and then get DQ'd afterwards. My statement was that he was educated in the class system and he won't be back in the 700 SS class again to disrupt those who are correctly registered in the class.

I didn't hear the part where he was allowed to race. We just talked about the bike not be legal for class. I assumed they were going to pull him from the grid.

Must be a slow rainy day Rob :laughing

Oh it's still 3-5 drops, but we have calipers now so that we can measure the drop diameter. In this way, the iPhone app algorithm can fully produce a determination of whether we should say heads we race or tails we race based on the year of the coin. One of the flaws is that it does not calculate pennies with any certainty after they changed the material used in 1982.

:cool :laughing
