exactly ! but if you did not make the bike faster than last year, and did not step up your riding , do you think you would finish further down the field than this year...!.?

i recon so. being in the 620 class i would assume there will be a few more sharks around. working on the assumption that any total novice will go for the 583 class

I think most who raced last year now know what is required to win or place higher overall....certainly most are as you say making improvements to machines where they can, and will start the season with perhaps a more focused mind set.

Next year will be more competative than this year with a higher concentration of people able to challenge top 10.

at least next season we know where to find our grid spot...thats one worry we dont have....

very true! although i only did 7 races i feel alot happier about the whole racing scene. there are plenty of things i wont have to worry about this year leaving lots of time to worry about other things!

really got to step up to the plate this year.

The mind game is where the advantage lies for those who raced last year.....

We should have a better idea of how much harder to push it, how the tyres work from cold and how the mini ducs work.....

CANT WAIT!!! Might even ride the whole season, not just alternate races,..
