The syrup track is so sticky the "No Brake" classes can cary a lot of speed and are able to scrub it off by just jamming into the corners

andy were you guys running on syrup or just smooth slippery concrete?
yeah i have no idea how the mopeds are going to work, i tightened up my rake to 24 degrees but a buddy of mine i ran into the other night said it looks like i might have too much offset on the front end and it will tend to want to tuck the front end. not much i can do about that.
also crazy short gearing so power might be a little more on/off than i want.

just smooth slippery concrete. Not sure if that's more or less difficult than with syrup, I would assume more slippery would be harder but maybe it's easier to slide around if there's like consistently zero grip instead of intermittent?
I feel like tire selection probably makes a big difference too. it was like 35° so those of us with road race tires couldn't get them warm even with like 10psi.
people that were really fast were running super soft compound enduro tread tires. I even overheard one guy saying he sprayed his down with brake parts cleaner in the parking lot.
This was fun. We definitely brought down the property value a bit. Thanks to Paula Andy and motoscoot for making it happen!
