Message: [QUOTE="DualSportr, post: 83011, member: 19592"] Okay, so how many of you watched the Las Vegas SX 125 race? Ernie fell over and stalled the bike near the final lap, and spent the rest of the race kicking the poor 250F like a two stroke. Needless to say, he went from first to 8th. Why can't anyone teach this guy the hot start procedure? I mean, I know it's the heat of battle and everything, and it's hard to take an extra tenth of a second to do it right, but jeeze, after having this happen time after time this year, you think he'd figure it out! If you were the team manager, would you put him back on a two stroke, and get someone else to run the 250F in the outdoor races? I'd at least make him hot-start the bike 20 times a day in practice. Make him realize how much faster it is if you do it right. Whaddaya think? [/QUOTE]
