Should the GSXR565 (and similar bikes) be outlawed?

[Gino230]

you mean who has "biggest grids" right? :)

It was coming down to, are these faster bikes pushing grids smaller or larger.  WERA is 90% SVs and they just had a good turn out.

I assume CCS sept VIR round is going to blow this past WERA round out of the water tho.  Gino you should show up. :)

I would love to but right now I'm leading two championships and I don't have the resources to go to any more rounds.

I think next year I might travel to different CCS rounds / regions so I can learn new tracks. Maybe follow the TC schedule? Championships are nice but let's face it, this is a hobby, what's more important the "piece of wood" or having fun, improving, and having some new adventures?

Plus I'm parking the LW bike and moving on to MW for next year. So I'll be taking a shellacking anyway :)

My wife tells me she is very proud of the wood I've gotten this year!!     She knows how hard I have had to work at it!!

I thought you just need a pill for that type of wood?

[Gino230]

It's always nice when you can get wood easily and without working too hard at it. Some people get bored when it's too easy to get wood, but now that I'm over 40, I will take it any way I can get it!

I put this together for a discussion on the WERA BBS, figured it's useful here as well:

Sv's have raced in D and clubman with WERA, they are just modified to be 500 or 600cc with use of sv400 crank.

So I heard one of the 565s did a 15.9 at Summit during the Team Challenge.  That's a pretty hot lap time for a lightweight bike....!

You mean "lightweight" bike.... :)

[SVbadguy]

And then it was crashed in turn 3.

What's your point?

I dont see a 565 in the results from summit. Whos bike was it?
