    Lightweight twins is my guess. Lots of good riders moving up into Expert, and National Challenge class. Anyone who watched some of the battles last year will probably agree. Proliferation of the SV has really pumped up the small classes. Look for a couple of 2-valve Ducatis to give the SVs major trouble.

    Yup it will be interesting to say the least. Anyone need someone to ride their LW-Twin? [​IMG]

    No, but you can help me learn to ride and set up my SV :)
    OK, how many bikes do you guys expect to see in LW? This will be my first year and if the grids are really huge, I might want to limit the first couple of weekends to Friday Bargy practice.

    Speaking of huge grids, with proddie gone the new superstock novice has the potential to be HUGE. We all know what goes along with that.

    Bunch of daggone wimps - y'all ain't never seen a grid til you've seen 80+ bikes at the GNF... Back rows had to hold on their brakes to keep from rolling (and I am not exagerating...).

    Should be fun gridding bikes half-way around the carousel at TGPR. Imagine all those ass-packers funneling into T1.

    We still do grid limits of 25 bikes per mile of track with some variations for track width, class, etc...

    Picture this: that other race org. at CMP in 11/98 for the first time... Grid up 40-or-so bikes 4-3-4-etc. on the short front straight and launch them the maybe 100-some yards to the 90-some degree left handed T1... DOH! [​IMG]

    After that, they've backed the back row up almost up to the exit of the last turn...

    Ooops - I meant "at CMP in 11/99 for the first time"

    I think your right bgoodwin not many people pay attention to the smaller bikes because they don't run 160+ down the straights.The LW twins is going to prove to be very exciting this year.See ya at the track.
