Other than the Bike I protested at Cadwell and the one at the Snetterton event that I didn't attend in the early days oof DD before max Power figures were in the rules where is this constantly protesting of bikes

Lots of complaints about Alan's old bike at Brands, but I didn't notice anybody heading for the race office with protest fee in hand.

As for Dyno figures I have seen all the Class A bikes that posted Dyno figures at Brands were less than the #7 bike as posted on Facebook, if I took Awesomes Chart as the base, probably 80 to 90% of the Class A bikes would be deemed as making excessive power and many of them were struggling to keep pace with a legal Class B bike

Not sure why it's taken personally, it's only a thought, and think you'll find most were similar to #7 - Sennas was around 63 and matts 64

I have heard loads around the paddock about de-tuning, lots from you Kev, how rules are avoided and manipulated, how bikes can be set up so they make the rules n power but shift power and torq and it's done because they are of power. And who would protest - the comment was you'd have to constantly protest not do? If someone ran straight into me, and I thought it was totally meant and not just out braked them selves, or something else, I still wouldn't, and certainly wouldn't someone's bike and suggest most of us rea the same; it's club racing

That was a mighty impressive performance for a Class B bike that was tested at within the regs. Down to a great set up or Chris's ability, or both?
