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.

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