I did a track day on saturday and spent most of my sessions dicing with a guy on a classic with approx 80bhp less than me.

OK, so he has raced the manx etc, but it goes to show that its 80% rider and 20% bike!!

Can we start a sweepstake on who will win?

domiski......

Unless i sabotage his bike somehow....no 1 is quick with 7 psi in the front tyre eh tony...?

As Tim said ....the power and the bikes are all gonna be very close....its going to be rider skill, experience, race craft, knowing how to ride 55bhp bike and not a 130bhp bike, AND balls.................

Some have all the above and others have some of the above.....should be interesting.

So is my 76 rwbhp higher than average?

Could be a high reading dyno I suppose, how much can they vary?
