[QUOTE="Ol'89r, post: 1322303, member: 17212"] Nope! :fft: Not even close Pred. I'll have to get Rich to do some physics calc to be sure but. My bike outweighed me by almost 2 1/2 times. Now, I have never met you but by all eye witness accounts, to get the same rider weight to vehicle weight ratio, you would have to be operating a BMW R1200RT or possibly a Volkswagon. :nener: ;) Shaw520 & Foxforks. That's what was so great about those days. There were classes for just about any bike that you wanted to bring out. It was all about having fun as opposed to having the best equipment and the biggest motorhome. At least in the sportsman classes. I think that type of racing could become popular again. Many riders are tired of augering themselves on the big doubles and triples on todays mx tracks, but still want to race. These types of tracks could provide a venue for those riders. And by having so many classes for different size bikes, it brings down the cost of racing. You wouldn't need a $ 7,000 motorcycle to be competitive. The size of the crowds back then was amazing. At the Grand Prix's they lined just about the whole course. At the original Elsinore GP, the street section was about 4 miles long and they lined almost every inch of the street. That's why the race got cancelled because the crowds got so big and uncontrollable. [/QUOTE]
