    buts its still just a normal everyday road bike. Its designed to be safe enough for americans to ride. cause f3 bikes often run experimental parts/setups they should get the most time as there possibly at much greater risks, or 125's cause while you may accelerate from 0 to a billion in several nanoseconds, f1/f2 bikes are no where near as fast in the non drag strip bits. All championship classes should have the same time (as they do) and i bet each ones as hard to setup for as the next.

    i think what choppa's having a bitch about is non-championship classes taking up track time, and he has a point.

    oh yea and the afternoon practice thing is retarded, why the fuck is that??

    I remeber at last years event at Hampton Downs Syndrome the explanation given was that there was a corporate booking in place until 13:00. We arrived at 09:30 to set up early and spent the day staring at an empty track. Gay.

    I always watch F3 but thats not really a support class as its a championship class.

    Practice day is not official so to get more racing in SBK + 600 combined, Sidecars, F3 and Maybe 125s Combined depending on numbers then we can get some decent testing done. Clubmens, Motard and Streetstock etc are support classes at this series. Not sure what support classes are running at R4 though

    Just a few ?

    I reckon I did somewhere around 120+ laps at Levels 1 and 2 of CSBK school.

    You have done levels 3 and 4 as well.....your bike would just about know its own way round there by now wouldn't it ?

    Support classes include Post Classic and Streetstock, no Clubmans or Motards, look at the freekin entry form and all will be revealed.

    So no more winging about track time

    I thought it was good actually, fly in that morning, get some peasant to pick us up from the airport and wander out at our leisure

    Dunno about F3 but I'd just about put money on 125Gp being faster unless it's a fuck off big fast 5-6th gear corner, I've had Superbike riding poofters pass me on the bucket and then hold me up in slow corners

    F1 riding homos would be to soft to try that shit

    I followed Avalon and Jaden on there 125s and I was faster through the corners. It would be interesting to see some data from MotoGp and 125s

    What kind of corners?, I reckon you'd be faster through the higher speed corners but through the slower corners I'd be very surprised if you'd keep up
