Tomorrow is my wife and I's 25th anniversary, I talked her into coming to watch some friends race for a couple days before we head on to a.few.other places. She is not liking this ar all with the rain. Not sure I want to pay $40 today and another $40 tomorrow to stand in the rain.

It looks like Carson Mumford might be running a steel framed 150 in the many senior class and the trick fuel injected aluminum frame one in supermini

Is there still a claiming rule at Lorretta's? I wouldn't imagine Honda letting him ride that one off bike with that much R and D in a race with a claiming rule. Did they make him a "copy" of that bike or did they get all the info they needed so it doesn't matter if they lose it?

I spoke to Kibby at FC about this possibly happening, they're more than prepared. He said his goal was to have enough parts to build like six or seven of those bikes before LL, in-case something happens. They're also not trying to ruin the one 85 based class they race, so that's why that bike isn't as trick, it's an older spec per se. While in the supermini category, they went all out with the bike.

Few reasons why I think that bike won't be claimed:

1. The manufactures have a gentleman's agreement to not claim each other's bikes. So the claim wouldn't come from anyone at Team Green, Horton/Rock River, TLD/Orange Brigade KTM, Suzuki am, etc...

2. If someone away from this group tries to claim one, they'll pretty much ruin their kids chances at ever getting any support from FC or Honda, ever. Along with the other manufactures not being too impressed...

3. Claiming that bike is pointless, as you'll never have the parts to keep it running.

4. If you really, really want one of those bikes... Kibby said they were considering selling the parts to build them to help expand Honda's presence in those classes.
