    You won't like F40 lites. It's the last race of the weekend. I ran it when I was a novice and wanted to continue as an amateur, but running in the last race of the weekend really sucks!

    Re: new amateur

    since i raced mainly sundays i dont mind staying till end for formula 40lts but hopefully i can race a few more saturdays. definitely looking forward to improving. this was my first full year even on a motorcycle and i started with 1:40 ++++ and by listening to a lot of people ended running 1:26. i know this isnt crazy fast but from where i started it was a huge improvement. setting a goal of 1:23s.. little less braking and more corner speed...

    23's is totally attainable. i expect you'll shatter that.
