    450cc singles

    So, as you may have heard, the AMA has some interest in a 450cc singles class to bring kids up through. At first I thought it was a cool idea, but I just read this off RRW. Some good insight.

    Great article. Also sheds a little light onto why roadracers have been annoyed by motards. THey simply are not bound to the same lines. I think that really holds back a lot of racers at loudon. You can go anywhere on a motard, making it that much harder to learn exactly where you should be to go fast.

    If you want to go fast and win then you ride the right line. Period. I see horrible lines out there by guys on every type of bike.

    True dat! The worst is actually a slow 125 rider! Holy H3ll can they take some F-ed up lines. It's actually pretty tough to ride them slowly.
