Bikes in autocross.

First off..do they let bikes autocross. Secondly, how do they do. Jeremy, Adam and I were having a discussion on how well the average crotch rocket rider would do compared to the better drivers. IE if someone who was pretty proficient on a bike raced someone in a decently driven Z06.

However, they do allow shifter-karts.... 8)

FYI, shifter karts are lots of fun. I use to race them a bit in Sweden. 125cc Honda engines, 5 spd, 80+mph. Also ran some 100cc single gear rotax angines. I went to Rod Hall karting school in Ventura.

(Sweden) Friends and I were racing one day and as we were going for the same turn, I touched wheels with his rear tire at about 35 mph, immediately flipped over and went off course. I was trapped upside down with gas pouring on me when some buddies came to the rescue and got me flipped over again.
Luckily I was wearing a helmet! I hurt my arm (small hairline fract.) but unfortunately my friend who I bumped into required stiches because when we touched, my front right wheel/tire jumped up and across his left hand. Nevertheless, we still had smiles on our faces and evil grins.

The owner of the track called me the "crazy American". :lol:

Fun and games.

If you ever have a chance, try out a kart on a track.

Then there's this story of me and my buddies driving shifter karts at 80 mph in some business complex after hours......In order to protect the innocent, I won't finish the story... :twisted:
