The key thing to remember is that Class A has never been won by the most expensive bike. To reinforce this point I'd like to field my star witness...... Jimbers!!!
I know Matt's bike was pretty tasty but I strongly believe he would have been on every podium had he been riding a 95,000 mile commuter hack. Same goes for Cobby and Geoff Spencer. The issue really only comes to a head when you have two evenly matched racers battling it out for the top spot like Hawk and Doomski, Tp & Cleggy, etc.
I agree and tbh I'm not even sure that Class B has always been won by the most expensive bike. Might be wrong.
He speaketh the truth. It also restricts innovation, a desire to present the bike to reasonable standard (not an area I have ever focussed on....)
I suffered the same reaction...priceless one from Ali....lol
I didn't say there were big problems with the series though. I'm having a 'slow work day' and don't get on the site that often so thought I'd start a thread :-) I'm tempted to change the subject line to: 'Fastfasulli's 'slow work day' thread.....one honk for yea two for nay'
...spose i'd better go find some work now.......
Franco my man.....that is as good a reason as any!

TP and Cleggy evenly matched? I get it, they are both fat fookers
