Why is there not a GTO class for 1000cc bikes in F40?

[Rick Johnson 29]

 There is a F40 because some guys over 40 for like to compete with guys around thier age. Me personally I don't care what age you are. When the flag drops I'm going to give it my all to win! For those of us that have big bikes generally only have 4 races on a normal weekend that we can do. F40 would give us another race. Sometimes we drive 9 hours plus and doing aonther race would be great. The F40 GTL, GTU, GTO is a great idea. They could all be ran at the same time so this would not take any longer then the F40 that is run now. Obviously you are not close to 40 so you don't give a crap but for those of us that are about to be 40 or that are already over 40 we do care.

Why do you even care?  You have made your opinion known twice in this thread.  Duly noted, move on, as there are obviously other people that would like to compete in a class that already exists...

Seriously, do we really need another freakin class in the CCS structure?  Why is there even a F40 class?  If you're over 40 and are worried about tradin paint, then take up knitting or golf.  Total waste of a class and time on the track!

looks like you ride a 1000cc twin, maybe they should get rid of the twins class too then you could just race it against the other liter bikes

  So you can post 6 times and I'm only allowed one post! This is not the WERA board! I'll be 40 before the start of next season that's why I care!

I'm with you Rick. I think they should be allowed also. I sent in this suggestion for the rules committee for next season. I know it has been before. We will see what happens.

Bingo. Thats what people who want to see it allowed need to do. Send a suggestion to the rules committee. Where it goes from there is up to the committee.


Rick what do ya mean "So you can post 6 times and I'm only allowed one post"? The forum software wont let you or are posts you made disappearing? If theres a glitch I'll see what I can do.

[Rick Johnson 29]

 No glitch. All my post are showing. At first I thought I was being asked why I care. When I went back and looked in I noticed he quoted someone else and wasn't asking me. Sorry guys.

No prob. Thought we may of had a forum software glitch

It would put more bikes on the grid while not adding time on the schedule.

It's a win , win.

I would join in on the fun too.

Rick, my post was not aimed at you, it was aimed at the guy complaining about too many classes.  I too have sent my request to the Rules Committee.  We are on the same side of this issue
