[QUOTE="rmc_olderthandirt, post: 1208233, member: 68872"] A 125 two stroke on a track is a blast to ride. To be competitive on the track you will need to learn the powerband and how to keep it on the pipe. Just learning it won't be an issue, you will make it around the track no sweat. The places where the small bore two strokes need experience and some amount of skill is when you are climbing steep & gnarly hills or technically difficult single track stuff where keeping it on the pipe is the difference between making it or stalling. When you didn't make it in the first place getting rolling again can be a real bitch, unless you turn around and go back to the bottom for another run at it. I expect that you would get the hang of it pretty quick, however. If you are considering racing, however, you should investigate a bit at places where you might race and find out what the class breakdown is. If you are racing at a large gathering there might be a women's 125 two stroke class, and a 250 two stroke, and 250 four stroke, and a 450 four stroke, etc. If the race has a smaller gathering there probably won't be enough women racers to have all the different classes so they will lump you together. As much fun as a 125 two stroke is it won't keep up with a 250 two stroke and unless you are really, really good it won't keep up with a 250 four stroke. If you want to be competitive buy the biggest engine the class allows. Rod [/QUOTE]
