So many good ideas, I dont think people join class B as a step on the racing ladder to greater things. People join DD and particulrly class B as it has a nice friendly feel to the paddock. I think people are quite happy racing ib B year after year and would only move to class A if that had the same friendly and cheap feel to it. I have considered going to A to help me with my power to weight problem. Lets facing I would guess my bike is having to pull 3 or four stone in weight over most people around me. 696 would be a good idea but at £4K before any modifications it is too much for me. If there were £3K race prepped 696s then that would work. Power to weight ration that included current A class bikes would allow those bikes to carry on and allow people to modify their B classes to be eligible?? Mark |
