i'm still learning but i'll be there soon enough i ran a 1:38 my first time at jennings... also my gsxr1000 was wrecked... no plastics no areo just motor,frame,tank,rider... probably lost about 8-10hp due to low pressure to the airbox and when i was in 3rd and up my suit was acting like a parachute... keep in mind i'm 300lbs and i beat a bunch of noobs in the novice class with ease 600 750 1000 what ever was in my way got passed...
then the reality check came when i moved up to intermediate and got passed by a 125cc 60hp 168lbs twisty machine but held my own for about 5 laps until i got scared (hit a rumble strip at 130+ and almost lost the rear)
You just contadicted your own post ?
You said you were passing people on 600s,750s and other 1000s,and you give the reason for so that it was your bike that was out doing them? Then you say how you were passed by a 125?Once again the bikes are all so close that its all rider,congrats on wipping ass in the novice class.
