Excess ArroganceWhistling I remember a heat race win or similar interview in early 2015 when Roczen was asked about someone (Trey i think) being as fast in the heat. Roczen brushed it off and claimed he was a better racer and proceeded that night to case the triple from the inside line in the main and ruin his 2015 season.

There are a couple of problems / issues all bundled up: -is a new support class required or going to be a good thing? (Main question of this thread) -if so, what bikes should this class be on?
