2013 Rules

[Gorilla]

All Very cool rule changes.




Now i get to have some Tuna in my B SB races

Be careful what you wish for he's pretty quick on that tractor LOL

No way, that is an absolute performance advantage. If the stock brakes on your choice of machine have issues while racing, pick another machine. Same as you'd do for being under powered or bad handling or anything else that can be cured by making it a superbike.

Just wait 6 more years, you will cave.

So is a larger rear wheel on a SS SV650.

1. In my experience not really.

2. He isnt doing it for performance he is doing it for tire selection.

I'll still use a 165 slick.

Yup now your profile will be correct giving you a larger contact patch allowing higher cornering loads.

Oh and the GSXR wheel is a lighter package allowing the motor to spin up easier.

I read why he is doing it.

But what about safety?
What about reducing cost?
What about continuing the trend of arguing about it?

Triumph 675 in SS trim allowed in LWT-SB?

You're doing it again.

only if you're racing with a passenger

I just so happen to know somebody who would be all about that shit. Her and I ran :26's at Jennings. Granted that was on my R1, but still...she would go apeshit if Mongo actually allowed that. I would never hear the end of it..."can we, can we, for real, can we". Haha.

 

[precipitous]

Mongo, he kinda hard to miss.

 

[JWVance]

Smart move on the DB rule IMO. I have never ran one myself but there are plenty of people who may chose another org to race with rather than spend $25 on ebay for a stock screen. I know it sounds stupid that someone who is going to spend hundreds of dollars a weekend racing would chose one org over the other based a $25 part but people are that petty.

 

[Gorilla George]

It is petty, but I have also heard people say the same thing. I am just like "really? ". Usually when people say stuff like that, it is just an excuse. But i dont blame Mongo for changing that rule; i dont even care about the windscreen either way and i was tired of seeing people complain about something as silly as that.

 

[Mr Sunshine]

You're doing it again.

-jim

Yup!

 

[t11ravis]

I can't believe you caved on this.

I can't believe this wasn't mentioned already. When they announced it at the Tally rider's meeting last month I just figured I didn't hear him correctly.

I wouldnt have an option. It would be slavery.
