You got it Crasher ring a ding ding and barrrrrrrp in Vintage MX, would love to see and hear a EMX125 race 40 screaming 125 2ts being thrashed and caned like 40 angry hornets.
4 bangers all sound the same 125/250/500 2 smokes all had a distinctive sound and smells mmmmmmmmm castor oil.

it was not so good of a sound when i turned up to the Czech GP a couple of years ago with a massive hang over from a wicked night out in Prague, in saying that tho, the MX2 that followed it was just as bad

How ironic, the end of the twostroke!
Why not allow 300cc twostroke, modern perimeter frame, EFI, that would be interesting.
Probably not allowed, too cheap to run a season, and Honda would not approve.

in what way ??

in what way ??

Seen the grid size these days? Used to be 3 classes and full grids, now 1 class and a small grid.

The marquee class used to be basically unlimited.
They'd pick the engine to suit the tracks. Boris Chambon used to ride KTM's up around 730-740cc. Now they're all namby pamby 450's.
Whoops were regulated out, asphalt landings were banned...

Now I see things are coming back to more normal with the tracks...
