Congratulations on Antonio's qualifier win.

I am not saying the bike is not legit. It would legit and legal at 450cc. No one believes that it is a 350 except for KTM's marketing department. A 250 or 350 should never be holeshotting 450's or starting right at the front of the pack on an uphill start like Lakewood.
who would have bet that RV2 could pull a holeshot and check out on a 250 at Budds?

This track is at 6000 feet and has a steep uphill start. The bike with the most power pulls holeshots there and the KTM engineer's already admitted the 350 is 8hp down on the equivalent 450. It's not a 350.
And by all accounts the 350 makes it best HP numbers way up in the RPM's at 12,000. How is that type of powerband going to be outpulling a 450 off the start?

Congratulations on Antonio's qualifier win.

I am not saying the bike is not legit. It would legit and legal at 450cc. No one believes that it is a 350 except for KTM's marketing department. A 250 or 350 should never be holeshotting 450's or starting right at the front of the pack on an uphill start like Lakewood.
Johnny O pulled a top 6 start on his 125 against 500s in 1986...

Congrats to AC. He is a bad dude! IMO the toughest competitor Dungey has faced this year for sure, and it wouldn't surprise me to see AC beat him in a head-to-head battle.

And by all accounts the 350 makes it best HP numbers way up in the RPM's at 12,000. How is that type of powerband going to be outpulling a 450 off the start?
with a deeply tilled start, start from a higher rpm and keep the revs up in the the powerband. if it was very hard packed then i could see it being a problem with the lack traction
