Hi guys

been a while but hey hey..

I was bumped up to B grade, so i sent a heated email back disputing it, this is the response I recived



"Matthew has provided some statistics in relation to the race meetings he entered including his average lap-times and these have been reviewed in light of his objection and we note the following:



1. Our records indicate that he has ridden 4 meetings as a C grader in 2016;

2. The committee’s decision is based on lap-times not finishing position;

3. He quotes B graders at SMP (the creek) as doing 1.35’s and that he is “maxed out at 1.40’s”. The window for B graders on a 600cc at SMP is 1.40 to 1.45, so at 1.40 Matthew is at the top of the B grade range;

4. He quotes B graders at WP as doing 1.03 – 1.04’s, and that he is doing 1.05’s. Again the window for B graders on a 600cc at WP is 1.06 – 1.09, so at 1.05 Matthew is actually A grade for that circuit.



Given the above, the committee stands by its’ decision to re-grade Matthew to B.



It may give some comfort to Matthew to know that we also reviewed lap-times of the B grade ASBK riders at both SMP and WP and they are doing:

SMP – 1.35 to 1.43

WP – 1.01 to 1.09, so he shouldn’t get “smashed”."



MNSW are living in the 90's

Computime has Rick Olson record at .37 for superstock 600.
If your motor is unmodified you may be selling yourself short.

Rodney and Keith have been doing 42's for a long time and have been B grade. Its just that the current crop of 600 guys are all so competitive.

I got regraded to B with best time at the creek of 42 flat in my 3rd year of racing. Not really surprised.....

Yeah I was promoted to B grade on my 600 when I was doing 43s. You're properly fast now, so you should be happy with your promotion!

Is this outside the St George grading system? http://www.stgeorgemcc.com/pdfs/roadrace/St%20George%20MCC%20RR%20Grading%20List.pdf

This is the only list I can find on the net. MA and MNSW are horrible sites to navigate.

So, since they spelled my name wrong, does it mean I get to start over? ;)

Why? What's wrong with going to B grade and why do you want to stay as a C grader? I'm not being smart, I just don't get it....:confused:

Like anyone in this country is ever going to be able to spell any Brazilian name right. We can't even say them correctly.:doh:
