| "Power is nothing without control"
You only have to look in the lap time difference between WSB bikes and WSS machinery to see that power isn't everything.
MotoGP have gone from 990 to 800 and they are going faster??
As a spectator I couldn't care less about how expensive or cheap the bikes are as long as the racing is close and the bikes have enough go to overcome the grip offered by the rear tyres easily!!
It doesn't matter what the regs say it will always be possible to spend whatever budget is available, be it DD, superstocks, WSS, WSB or Moto GP.
There are a million and one ways to spend money looking for that edge both on and off track.
A BIG budget doesn't always buy a championship, but it cam make loosing one a bit more humbling!!
