My right leg weighs more than that!!

Which brings me back to another pet peeve!! Why should someone have to stick their damned finger down their throat in order to be light enough to race a damned little race car, that's for horse racing! It really peeves me off watching cars going back and forth to the scale trying to add that last ounce to make race weight.

I got a better idea. Lets only allow weighing until after the main event if you are too light "NEXT"!!!!! I see where one guy sold out and I bet a lot of that was because of weight problems.

"Motor
The motor must be a 4-cycle motorcycle engine with 1205cc maximum"

Taken from page two; there's still a disparity that needs to be corrected one way or the other. Until Mr. Tague, who is apparently the sole spokesman for the AMSA (according to the rulebook), weighs in, it's still unclear.

That "NO V TYPE Motors" was made for me. That's what I got for talking about Aprilia Motorcycles.

The average weight of the American male is 195 lbs. the mode is somewhat higher. Good thing they don't charge pilots by the pound, that would be expensive air freight.

Never thought i would see mechanical injection banned because they think its better than EFI if anything should be the other way you can do much more with efi stuff than most know its just knowing how to do it and anyone with a laptop that knows anything can make changes in seconds to not just fuel system . Mechanical all you have really is bypasses for fuel.i think its the wrong way they are going.
