[QUOTE="KC_BigDog_51, post: 155500, member: 22442"] I raced for the first time a month ago in the 125 Begginer class and their were 20 riders in my class. I got signed in early so I got to pick my gate spot 5th so i had a pretty good choice. The first race I chose an inside gate/line and I just blew it out of the gate and got pinched off and ended up about 15 out of the first turn. The second moto I chose to move outside quite a ways and I just pinned it as long as I could and sung around the turn from the outside and blew by a bunch of people when they kind of bottle necked in the first turn and ended up in 7th. This was a much better tactic to use until my starts get better. Another thing was that usually the top 10 guys in the 125 class a less likely to be riding out of control and it is much safer. The gap between me and 8th place was so far back that I laid it down in a turn and it took about 10 kicks to get the bike started and I still stayed in 7th. I would stick to the outside until you get more comfortable.:cool: [/QUOTE]
