Now in 2020 (I'm on a 2017 TC250) everytime I go to the track I see a fuckton of 2-strokes out there ripping. Huge change.
This is in Southern California btw.
I'm still laughing at DC's shitty excuse for not allowing 250 2-strokes in the 250 outdoor class. Weaksauce.
I like to think back to, in my opinion, the golden era of GP motocross. Late 90s-early 2000s.
There were three very distinct classes. 125, 250 and 500. 125 and 250 were two stroke and 500 was the "run-whatever-you-like" class.
No class was seen as inferior to the other. People switched up and down all the time. It was more like, if you´re a big bulky strong guy, you probably race 500, but if you´re a small, short, techincal guy, you probably race 125s.
Every class had a distinct feel and difference to them and they were all very enjoyable.
They ruined it by including 4 strokes and raising the cap to 450. Now all of a sudden the manufacturers became interested.
Equal displacement - run what ever stroke you like. How hard can it be.
Its not BAD now, I just thought it was much better back then.
Pit Row
He basically said that the OEM's have him by the balls. They say jump and he says how high.
Got to have some respect for him at least admitting to that.
