Endurance races and lap records.
Posted: Mon Sep 16, 2024 8:11 am
I’d like to open this topic once again.
As this past weekend the P5F2 lap record was eclipsed in the endurance race.
I still fail understand why:
1. When we know the class of machinery
2. When it is a club sanctioned and managed race
3. When it’s pretty easy to determine who was on the bike.
We do not use these times.
While true not many riders are even capable of setting fast sprint like times in an endurance, clearly there are a few who can and do so quite regularly.
Surely we should move to have this change made….. no?
It’s seems unfair to those who have put in the effort.
