Just out of curiosity, how many of you in BBS land are racing an SV this year? Post what classes you plan to race (LWT, HWT, f2, DSB)and if you're expert/novice. Will one of these replace B/C production as the traditional 3-wave start class? Let's see how many reply...And no, there will be no recounts
I'm not. ha ha ha ha My mission in 2001 is to make life tough for the SV's in D-SBK expert. [This message has been edited by Tracee Polcin (edited 01-22-2001).]
Me. Expert. Hopefully, D-Super will be the Suzuki contingency class, so I'll focus on it, and those selected events. The rest of the classes(LWSolo, LWT & F2) will be run for fun and entertainment, but I can't afford to chase regional championships. The Rain Director can use my pretty bike for HW Twins anytime we're together.
Robert Nees took D-Super in the Mid-Atlantic Region last year on a FiZzeR. You'll have to battle all 5'8", 135lbs of him for the belt.
No SV here. But I'll be running D-SB and LW Solo. Maybe a few F2's. I'll be on a Bandit 400. This will be my first year in a large, very competitive class. (ex-clubman racer) So, the middle of the pack will be fine......for the first few races, anyway. I'll be running a lot of Sybil's races as well.
I raced a GSX-R750 last year, sold it, bought an SV to race this year. I'm a novice, gonna run SE region, probably LWT, F2 and DSB. Maybe HWT at the tight tracks. I think I will do better and have more fun in this class after riding the 50+ bike grids (road A). Hope to learn a lot more too. Now just gotta hurry and get this thing ready!!!
Novice running D,LW,probably F2 in the southeast. This survey would be more meaningful, in terms of grid sizes, if everyone mentioned region! The comment about HW on tight tracks makes me think - I generally suck, but was passing GSXRs and R1's at Talladega the day after I bought the bike and on the previous owner's setup. Maybe I will do that, too.
I'll second that motion. The mighty FZR400RR now has white plates. There was some sort of neon green and black SV I saw a lot last year... It might want to re-think that Suzuki money in D-Super thing (That was a joke Steve...) - Roach
