OK, let the shit fight begin......

**s a x m a n** · 03-21-07, 12:11 PM

just wondering if there is data on what the group sizes will look like?

i like the idea of practicing with the racers in my class that I'll actually be racing against

**Supah Dave** · 03-21-07, 12:13 PM

Great, another scam! So who's getting rich off of this one?!?

None, the groups were chosen at random with absolutely no data what so ever.

Well let's see. There used to be 6 practice sessions and the Amateurs practiced with the Experts. Now there are 7 on Saturday and 9 on Sunday, the Expert and Amateurs are split in the MW&HW/UL classes, so.......subtract the first....carry the one, divide by 12, borrow from the ten....I say smaller.

and I don't have to run with EXs! the world is right once again!

hahah

you knew there was something wrong with the practice schedule when for the first couple weeks of my AM career they tried to put me in blue practice, then they stuck me in red practice ... could never figure that one out.

that's my one & only complaint... other than that I think this will work well

**highsider** · 03-21-07, 12:38 PM

Is this going to affect my watching and drinking beer? Because if it is, I'm outraged.

**senecak19** · 03-21-07, 01:08 PM

No complaints here. It is what it is and I'm good with that. Just let me ride :-) Its going to be interesting running with 'all' the riders in our group! Can't wait to try this out.

Peter, your comments have me laughing off my chair here at work. Your calculations seem spot on to me. Oh and congrats on buying the Virgin Islands.. I got five dollars this does in fact turn into a "shit fight".

**s a x m a n** · 03-21-07, 01:28 PM

we had some AM running some top expert times ... are they going to be put in the top expert group if they are still AM??

**Supah Dave** · 03-21-07, 02:26 PM

If they were AM running top expert times, they won't be AM anymore...

**s a x m a n** · 03-21-07, 02:27 PM

one would hope so ... but ya never know

haha

**TheIglu** · 03-21-07, 02:52 PM

Looks like we'll be running with the same people that are in our races. That can only be good compared to what I'm used to. Practice will be just like the races but with tards thrown in the mix.

I'm just curious how big am/ex group will be for the ex/motard/125 etc. Seems like there is a lot of motards nowadays.

**Evil_Weasel** · 03-21-07, 03:17 PM

oooh i'm not sure i'm going to love being on the track at the same time as the 600s.... made that mistake once ( raced middleweight GP)....i was the only GP bike on the grid the rest were 600 super sports. it was not a fun race.

i guess i'll just have to get faster.

**Awesome** · 03-21-07, 03:22 PM

Similiar to the WERA practice groups i think.

So we won't be seeing these top experts running in the other practices since they have a special practice of their own?

**Supah Dave** · 03-21-07, 03:22 PM

Two words for ya...

Cornering Speed

I'll trade you.

**Supah Dave** · 03-21-07, 03:23 PM

You'll only see the top experts if they are running more than one bike. The bike that they are fastest on gets run in T.E. practice.

**Supah Dave** · 03-21-07, 03:31 PM

Maybe I can extract some from my nuts for ya. I got some real potent stuff!

**mmracer37** · 03-21-07, 03:42 PM

So I just wanna make sure I got this right. I can run MR9 mixed with nitro methane in my 636 in practice Group 4A – 125’s, Motards, Singles, EX’s, Ultralightweight Twins (Novice)

Please let me know if I'm confused on the subject.
