I think the 250A, Pro Sport or 450A will be the fastest class. The B class usually is one of the fastest but, the B class is not near as fast as it has been in the past and is not near as deep as the A class. Still have McElrath, Bisceglia, Owen, Hampshire, Melross, Coats, Owen, Covington, Baker, Alex, Clawson, Rezland and Enticknap racing Loretta's in the A classes.

B class is stacked too, Zachary bishop 547 is so fast it's unreal. I've watched home terrorize the b class all year at all the big races. That kid can fly also bisceglias dad hauls ass also. He was racing at mill creek and kicking ass.

You really think no one in the +30 B/C could handle the +50 guys? Every year there is many a pro practicer who slots perfectly into the B/C rules but has the speed to make it in other vet classes like the highly competitive +25. But they want that one year of a possible championship by robbing the slow guys.

I sure hope not! I am 32, ride B class and think that is probably the most sand bagged class at Lorretta's. You have to be smoking fast to win that title!

Laughing here we go ..... track conditions change constantly at the ranch making it impossible to compare one race to another because They are constantly working sections of the track between races.

Would be interesting to see each riders average over the 3 motos.

If Matt Bisceglia is healthy, he will be setting the fastest laps times.

There will be a couple of guys at the front of the 50+ class this year that will suprise a few people.

I was hoping +25 would be slow this year so I could make a run for it but then I saw Robbie Reynard qualified in that class. I'll give it another run when I'm old enough for +30. I've got my fingers crossed for a vintage class next year. Please DC!!

Robbie Reynard
James Povolny
Taylor Painter (who was qualifying for night shows 2 years ago)
Ryan Grantom
Tim Ferry
Matt Walker
Mike Sleeter
Charles Casloo

Those are just the names I recognize and that are posted so far. It'll only get worse.

I wish they had a 40b/c. No way I can compete against pro-vets...but that would be full of sand-baggers as well.

Crash Master...I see you're a fan of Papa Emeritus. Very nice!!!

Yep. It's painful when theres a huge deal because so and so in the B class got a faster time than A. When it 100% comes down to the track conditions and time of day.

Jeff Ward was at my area qualifier in the +50 class but didn't end up making it to the regional.....He lapped me.

The trick here is to have a friend snap a photo just before he passes you!

"Here I am leading Jeff Ward!" Smile

Cooler than any plastic trophy.

McElrath will be Fasest Big-Bike lap.

O-40, O-50 or the Ladies are most likely to have the slowest lap. I should know...I race O-50!
