74 is an unknown quantity at this point
the thing is i would say that i would have to be one of the quickest guys over 75 kgs & i have only half a chance so where does that leave the rest of the guys over 75kgs ?

Wink Weight Control

Does Any One Have The Equipment To Carry Out Hp Ratings. If So Can You Imagine The Head Ache On Race Day With All The Protest Due To ( He Cheated ) It Should Be In A Higher Rating. So Would Be The Problems With Weights On Race Day. If You Have Enough Members You Could Still Run Two Classes But If You Rember Adelaide With 17 Or So Members Into The First Corner It Was Amazing. You Only Had To Watch The Crowd Reaction For The Elite Race It Was Over The Top. The Junior Water Cooled That I Raced In Was Fast But With Another 10 Rides It Would Have Been In The Elite Class Of Show. The Rule Of Thumb Is If You Have The Numbers No Matter How Fast It Is It Will Be A Good Show.

It depends on how many classes you have, if you had a under 65 kg & a over 65 kg class on the same grid but separate points system, this would still be fair & the race would be ran the same

It will just recognize the 2 separate weight classes & winners of each ?

If the clubs agree to another set of trophy's for the weight classes i dont see what difference it would make especially for larger clubs & races like titles etc...

Even with cag racing a 75kg bloke on a slightly modded 49cc has no chance against a 55kg bloke who is on a stock 40cc.
The larger guy must break later & get on the gas sooner (ride alot harder) to even try to keep up so it dose even the playing field without changing the number of riders in the race

this could even result in less crashes & injury's because the heavy guy dose not need to try ride outside his ability to place in the top 3

it sounds like you lost the race allready, it's all in the head ive been racing con for four years now and beaten him a number of time's and so has vella and im 43yrs old ,73kg .before ride gear and we get better buzz.because he is the bench mark for now .he is just a nutter like skinner so if you wont to win dont get him mad and get your bikes running right. and dont make any mistakes and flow throw the corners its possable to beat him there's not many hill's on gokart track's...reason numbers are dropping it's getting very expensive to be compet ,where on a par with real road racing to get set up but crashes are cheaper ,and less major injury's and alot of people think it's a joke. to spend this sort of money on a toy bike but if your a true racer you do it any way and you turn up as much as possable. even if you have no chance to win. so you reckon STONER not going to turn up now he cant win he's title back less rossi crashes....he's going to try he's best to the end because that's RACING....you never no you luck on the day....
