    Bench Racing... Who's faster?

    Jim on a CRF50 or BrianC on a CRF80?

    I pick Kurlon.

    Don't know if Jim can handle all that power.

    It's all water under the bridge, and we do enter the next round-robin. Am I wrong?

    Awesome thread... considering our novice race results speak for themselves... and the fact that in am. I only let Jimbo by a few times so he could see what it's like to make a pass on someone, I'd put my money on the 80cc w/me on it. I don't care how many track days Jim does, he'll never keep up w/me on the straight.

    Are we talking stock bikes or...

    (The CRF50 motor can be built to dump a shedload more power to the rear wheel than the CRF80, even giving the 80 builder double the budget... just sayin...)

    I know a dude who used to beat 250's on a 80cc powered CRE in the woods... (all 2-strokes). *CRE was the enduro version of a CR for those not around back then. I think it was a 125 chassis.

    But... in this case, I'd still win just cuz I'm the fastest bench racer that ever was, and you know that Oreo.

    A tough decision indeed.

    I will go with Degsy on beach cruiser being towed by a Chinese pit bike.

    Ok, seeing as we're pulling out pictures and my name was tossed in the ring...

    Pete, I don't wanna hear anything about an RS125 being 'cramped'.

    Jim for the win. Brian C would have traction issues. He'd be spinning the rear wheel in sixth on the front stretch.

    God I love winter.
