    Looks like someone brought a "gun" to a "knife" fight. :Poke: (R1 not legal for V7)

    Granted, my zx7 is still in pieces on the garage floor so I was a "no show"...but the above might affect someone else with a dog in the fight in the region.

    that should be in V8 Heavyweight, right? assuming it's 12+ years old.

    Wasn't there,but I have in the past,many moons ago raced/tested a 500 gamma in a class,with the stipulation I would not be scored. It wasn't my bike,the owner wanted to see it run,and wera allowed it.It broke 2 laps from the finish. Are you sure it placed points wise?

    Yep...according to the PPIC showing #1, I'd say points were awarded.

    Kinda sucks that no one was there to race with the top gun.
    I’m sure Mongo will adjust championship points as needed.

    The racer transcript is NOT the official results with regard to bike models. That comes off of your profile if you pre enter. The bike was absolutely not an R1 but it was a Yamaha 1000.

    The controversy is why are the WERA vintage grids so small pretty much everywhere?

    Nope, that's because a ton of the vintage bikes that were brand new when we started racing are as old as hand shift Harleys and Indians were at that point.... :crackup:

    Is it really bringing a gun to a knife fight if you're the only one showing up to the fight?
