I know women are allowed to race against the guys if they are fast and want to. But, what about the other way around. Everyone knows men are generally stronger so I understand the purpose of a women's class, however, if a guy is extremely slow should he be able to sign up and race against the women?
This would only work for the 2% of guys that should never have bought a bike in the first place. It is something to ponder. I know it would never happen, but that fact that women can race either class and men can't sign up in the women's class could be called discrimination.
The comparison is that if you have a group of women and men both that are virtually the same speed, why can the women sign up in either class, but the men are only allowed to sign up in one class?

And so what if the 2% of guys that should have never bought a bike in the first place are out there on clapped out 125's or brand new 250f's with every bolt on available... Not everyone was lucky enough to grow up and ride dirtbikes as a kid and build solid bike skills, some get into the sport late and got bit by the moto bug hard enough to still have a great time rolling jumps and getting faster each lap while trying to stay out of the faster riders way in a race or practice session.
