I agree theres no class compliance checking at Bubs. I saw bikes in impound that were clearly illegal in their class like with an aftermarket pipe and air cleaner on a production bike and streamlining on a naked class bike. The only thing they ever check is motor size. I don't think the tech guys understand the class rules so they don't even bother checking for it. In fact I've seen them give out flat out wrong info when asked a classing question. They also don't enforce the rule about upclassing theres lots of cherry picking softer records. I like the idea of an all bike event and admire Bubs for putting it on but the tech is really lacking in this area and that makes the records not worth much. Drew should fix it.
Ok, ok, you have several acusations here mr. VeeTwin - Can you back them up with photo or other documentation to prove your acusations ? Why did you not voice those concerns at impound and place a valid protest ? Where is the "flat out wrong info when asked" and who asked it ? Enough blowviating here mr. VeeTwin - provide the names and proof of your acusations or go home and try again next year.
Drew and all the volunteers at BUB have put forward a sincere effort to provide a respectable motorcycle only event with AMA and FIM sanctioning. If you feel that you have been slighted, I sugest you take it up with AMA Ken, or FIM Charlie, and not just sling acusations around like a school yard kid that did not get what he wanted, or expected. Provide the evidence -
I for one thank the entire BUB crew for their efforts to provide this sanctioned event. If you are that unhappy with it - - don't blame Drew or any of the volunteers who are doing their best to make it happen. If you can do a better job - Volunteer next year for the tec crew - Come on now - step up - don't just flap jaw - - -
A big time thanks to Drew - Delvene - Lenea - Denis - and all the BUB Volunteers for a great Internationaly known event.
Just my not so humble opinion, take it or leave it.
