Twins Cup

Exactly!
That's reality
Not sure why the labels and the shitty attitudes about dudes wanting to race.

 

Call it what you will. It’s the most entertaining, biggest grid, most talked about (here anyway), than any other class, in any other organization.

Pro, pro/am, club race, call it what you will. But most of you calling it anything, has never, will never, or hasn’t in forever raced.

 

Fixed it for you....

 

If there is one thing that hasn't changed over the years is LWT racers bitching then about getting no respect. Then and now. Damn you MotoAmerica

 

Here for the hobbyist jabs.

 

Let the haters hate Chris. Twins has some of the best racing on the card. Was good last year and the fields filled up this year and was an even better show. If I were MA, I'd go to 3 day events and have all classes race twice. Junior Cup, Twins, Superstock 600 and then morph 1000ss and SBK into one set of rules somewhere in the middle.
Congrats on another good season and get after them next year.

 

Only races I watched on Motoamerica live were the twins races except for the last SB race for the championship.

 

I propose that all Twins cup season participants henceforth be referred to as ProClub racers, to differentiate them from lowly regular club racers.

 

I appreciate the edit
The trolls will always have their fun regardless, yet jealous...

MA is professional, acts professional and treat us professionally. Labels us as privateers, up and coming. Not pretenders or club guys...

 

Maybe last year when there were barely any people at some of the rounds, one might say it's a club race, but this year the Twins class had some of the most entertaining racing in MA! Sure the class has a lot of older club racers on a budget, but there's also up-and-coming fast kids that are looking to move up (like Dumas, Draik, etc.). It was a good mix this year, and even so, what's wrong with having older guys on a budget on the grid? If they're fast enough to qualify and race, let them do it. The only complaint/suggestion I have is to maybe raise the bar on qualifying. The bottom guys are way too slow compared to the leaders and are getting lapped way to quick. Not sure if they do a 110% rule for qualifying or whatever it may be, but perhaps it should be changed to 107% or something like that. There shouldn't be a difference of like 15 seconds per lap between the top guy and the bottom guy in a pro race.

 

Naah naah na naah!!! You are a club racer!!!!

 

Not at the Cup race. How easily you forget. We used to be boys too.

 

Where did the term club racer even come from? I mean, is Wera or CCS a club? One you join? This whole argument about who is a club racer or a pro racer has never made sense to me. When Josh Hayes and Kevin Schwantz races a Wera endurance race, were they then club racers? Or simply racers? The answer seems pretty obvious to me.

Pro vs privateer I can follow.

I had a similar thought.

110% for q1
If you don’t make it you don’t race.
Then to thin the heard a we bit more, make q2, 108%. That would thin the heard, but really make everyone push harder on q1
