Wotz difference with F3 class then,mixed bikes,speeds,even 125's...they all start and turn into turn 1

Try a bit of English language there Luke, it'll make it more likely for you to get a reply.

I just looked at qualifying for the last round and it was 2 of each on the first 2 rows of posties. It doesn't seem to be a problem if people ride with awareness. I agree that starts and the first corner are dangerous places. I'm just not convinced that putting pro-twins in with postie seniors is any more dangerous than what happens already in posties. To my knowledge, nobody has ever been concerned about this. I would even suggest that the pro-twin bikes get off the line better than most postie junior bikes.

yes but you looked at long track.
and thats what i ment by more 80hp bikes in the mix meeting at turn one than the normal senior junior.

Now I'm really confused. Isn't the argument that smaller bikes might qualify ahead of bigger bikes and "extra" chaos will ensue at the start and turn 1? Last meeting was the perfect example of smaller bikes qualifying well. I don't remember it being more of a problem than in any other race start. Or is the argument that the bigger bikes will qualify better on the short track and....? At round 3 there was Chappy and 3 seniors on row 1, then 3 juniors on row 2. Was this a problem?
I can see why people might think or imagine that running protwins with postie seniors could be a problem, I just haven't heard any evidence yet that it will be any more dangerous than what happens already.

Started talking about this because pro twins points may be effected by some getting caught behind straight line posties off the line then it started safety concerns(not by myself).
Biggest difference is now we have alot more seniors than the norm by over double and pro twins(evenly matched classs at 80 odd hp)when normally Chapells 80hp zxr is the only small bike able to contest corner one.
Instead of one mismatched power wise bike able to reach corner one at the same time we have lots.
Round three was bad example as not many seniors turned up that round.My bad.

< sarcasm >
I'm glad we have so many taking an active role in organising this meeting. Should be a good turn out at the AGM with no problem getting all the positions filled.
< / sarcasm >

Seriously though - I think the point has been well and truly made and VMCC will consider it's options.

Let's hope the forecast improves.

Fair enough. I reckon there might be frustrations with having to get by bikes that are slower in different parts of the track, but in the end people seem to finish pretty much where they should do according to their lap-times. Especially over the longer races.

The sunshine dance (like the rain dance) requires one to get their kit off.
Sadly I have now joined the vast majority of people who look better with there clothes on so I will not be doing it. (there was a time when I thought I was irresistible naked and took every opportunity to get my gear off )
