Why ther is no difference between 1098s and 1198r

[hamurobby]

Well what a great weekend it was, Homestead and all. except that the 1098s kicked ass inn f40 just as the 1198 did because it pulls 15 bike lenghs out of a 2nd gear corner as I pointed out to Kevin Elliot AND THE REST OF THE CCS CREW on the front straight on the 1st lap of the f40 race......... oh, by the way...... Barret Long WAS RUNNING A 1098s in the shootout that was running 3rd, I guess THAT IS AS FAIR AS A 750 RIGHT, THAT iS WHAT I WAs POINTING OUT ON THE FIRST LAP OF THE F40 RACE Mr. Kevin Eliott, that was 20 bike lenghs from t13 to the middle of the front straight. He did that on the back straight, but I closed back to within 2 bike lenghs AND HE DID THAT ON JUST THE FRONT STRAIGHT....and THE DWIRE AND Lars Remsen and the rest of south Florida gets beat by Barret on a 1098s, NOT AN 1198R.... well it might just be an unlimited bike? Any of you snowed in pussy's who got some shit to say can suck my asss, how is that? GO FUCK YOUR SELF WOULD BE BETTER PUT, YOU PUSSYS CANT GET OFF THE COUCH SO STFU. You should have showed up bitches. I know I'm not so fast, only winning a few expert races last year in the se AND THE FLA REGION and getting the #7 plate in expert, but when Shawn Dwire, LARS REMSEN AND EVERYONE BUT JEFF WOOD  gets there teeth kicked in by an 1098(ESSSSS) BY JONLONGS SON    on their 1000s there is not much chance anyone can hang with getting out dollar ed on the race track. That's why
I ask you kEVIN ELLIOT if they were still legal just before the f40 race, AND WHY i WAS POINT ING TO THE 1098 IN FRONT OF ME AFTER HE PULLED THAT MUCH (20) BIKE LENGHS ON JUST THAT ONE STRAIGHT, IS THAT ENOUGH TO CONVINCE YOU? OR DO YOU NEED MORE PROOF.;  I beg everyone to protest, hell lets boycott the class!!!!!!!! and I will stay on my 600 with pump gas, or
I'm going to kill the class with my 750 sb and HOW MANY MORE CLASSES ARE WE GOING TO LET DUCATII TO DESTROY? THEY  HAVE DESTROYED LIGHTWEIGHT WITHT THE 1OO0, AND WHEN THEY GET THE 848 RIGHT THEY WILL DESTROY MW?

HAMUROBBY BITCHES, AND YES MELKMAN YOU OWE ME A TACO FOR NOT TAKING YOU OUT AND CRASHING MYSELF BEHIND (TOTALLY MY FAULT) PJ Jacobson IN GTU (HE IS GROWING INTO HIS LEATHERS!)  and thanks to Grub and Alex Miniaci for not running over me!!!!!
AND YES I LOVE DUCS, RIDING ONE IN MOTOST AND I LOVE YOU ALL  

ITS ALMOST AS Interesting AS WERA AND i WONT GET BANNNED LADIES 

YOU SHOULD HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY, SO SAY IT OR ASK IT,AND BRING IT!!!! Thats what a forum is for!!!

I think someone was drinking last night.

[Jeff]

Jesus Christ, did you run out of Ritalin? 

(a) protest in the proper channels (and bubba this isn't it)
(b) suck it up
(c) break out the check book and buy a ducati

[MELK-MAN]

Mike, he has gone through the "channels" and more than a few have complained. A well sorted 600 can run with a 750 on corner speed and just that most of us club racers cant use all the throttle anyway, but these inline 4's have NO chance against these 1000cc Ducs. That's why my $ won't go to a F40 class that i actually looked forward to riding a couple years ago. Not now.
I know some 848's are pushing 140 LEGAL hp , with 2x the torque of a 600 inline. Im not sure what the fix is for the class, but F40 is broken.. I know Robby and Mavros are PISSED. There are others too but wont post names as they are not as vocal.
thanks for not takin me down Robby. Taco with sour cream on the side commin up.

Well, an incoherent "cock sucking, mother fucking, pussy asshole" this that & the other filled rant isn't going to have much of an effect other than putting a large pointy DUNCE cap on the author.

[ScubaSteve]

Robby you crack me up man!

can't disagree with that..

[garrettrick]

Wait wait wait, did you say Mavros is pissed about someone using a cheater bike? tehe tehe 09 is going to be a fun year!

that is funny, good one ...ROFLMAO

[Solo]

Despite the vigorous expression, the question is valid. 
My  opinion doesn't even count for two cents but this is how things are where I come from-
Twins are limited to 1000cc in all classes with the exception of.... you guessed it...  the over forty class.

The over 40 class is a "run what ya brung" format.  But, its not a championship series. 
It really lives up to its name as race for older guys that are only in it for the fun.


I'll give F40 a try at this first race.  If the difference is really that bad (and it would have to be bad!) I'll race the other classes.

[RAISING CANE]

NICE JOB ROB I could not agree with you more. This is a sad ass situation. I have been over this subject till I'm blue in the face. In many peoples opinions the people in charge at ccs (KE & EK) have really dropped the ball this year on this one. I went thru the proper channels last year only to get excuse after excuse! I barely pulled the AM championship out of my ass because my main comp. could not keep his 1098 upright and still cant as he was registered for the EX F40 race sunday but crashed out early in the day and did not make the grid or you would have had 1098's running 1&2. 

Last year manny people complained and all that was done is the 1198 was eliminated! BIG THANX FOR NOTHING. What are there like 3 1198's running in all of ccs yea eliminate them big help to the class!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm with you ROB and others I will DROP F40 in protest if we can get it organized. SO lets see last year Mike R and others dropped out of f40 now this year already we have lost Melka and possibly Rob, myself and maybe Charlie M. Nice soon they will only have 4 riders gridding up.

Like I stated last year looks like Ducatti is in bed with ccs and trying to claim some championships and sell more bikes.

[MELK-MAN]

+1, well said (with less explitives that Robby..lol)
What some may not understand is the way the big twin makes power. the extra ponies may not sound like a big deal. Not being able to use the throttle cause we are not pros may not either. The big twins put the POWER DOWN BETTER than the inline 4's.. period. They are able to get more hp down easier as they dont spin the rear as much. It is a sight to behold and a fact documented in respected technical magazines by knowledgeable test riders.
