So when is King Colin going to start running a Lightwieght Superbike class....same as WSBK???
Totally different tracks. I would do GBM no problem, whereas I wouldn't go to Mosport without a seriously quick well sorted bike.Not sure how many would do it at GB that wouldn't go to Mosport, I assume a couple but wouldn't think a whole lot.
I know...Well...you just suck then.....![]()
If Grand Bend happens I can see A LOT of SOAR riders participating for the home advantage of riding the track so often.
Thank you very much boyoboy..well, first things first - congrats on your sportbike 2nd place overall championship run- AS A FIRST YEAR ROOKIE PRO!
I have no vested interests with csbk. If you want just PM me any rumours you have, and I will spill the beans..lol
I know...sorry....
lol
GB as apprerently showed interest in improving their facilities to accomodate a bigger venu !
They are asking CSBK on how to be able to have a series with them.
Thank you very much boyoboy..A tough season but happy of the end result, especially considering I had back surgery in February !!!
Mmmmm.... that could be an option to get the rumour out there !![]()
What I will mention is that if Shannonville will not be present, then one of the other tracks will be 2x a double header !
** and as far as Bogie is concerned, it seems it's a $$$ issue **
... but VRRA is going to Calabogie twice!
With the sheer amount of money and riders that came out last year. It makes sense. The VRRA gets more riders out plain and simple. I remember Ashton being super surprised that they were in the black last year after the bogie rental fee.
Totally different tracks. I would do GBM no problem, whereas I wouldn't go to Mosport without a seriously quick well sorted bike.
Aren't the two tracks straightaway about the same size? you need a quicker bike even at GB as Mel now has a faster bike than you.
I know what you are saying, I don't think there would be a lot of people though that would jump into a national race no matter which track it was at.
So was Calabogie ???
Yeah I guess I should have used the sarcasm button for anyone who has not been on/seen the two tracks. Not to many spots around you can be top gear pinned.I really hope you're kidding about the straight lol.
The stick-in-the-mud VRRA types did not like Grand Bend. (I think they made up their mind to not like it and nothing could have swayed that preconceived opinion.) A significant number wanted to go to Mt-Tremblant. Go figure that one out; I sure can't. This is from an organization that has run events at St-Eustache (2014), St-Croix (a couple of years ago), and the airport at North Bay (not very many years before that). I suspect some of the issue is that the exec committee in the recent past has members from Ottawa, Quebec, New York state, and Grand Bend is a long haul for them.
Calabogie corner 1 on a modern superbike is a big problem. On a 60 hp bike, not so much. There were a fair number of crashes at Bogie but corner 1 wasn't an issue. The Spoon (15?) did some damage.
Apparently there was only one racer at the Calabogie round who didn't do any of the practice days leading up to it.
<raises hand>
(I had work commitments that couldn't be changed ... and I've ridden there before, so it wasn't a problem)
