Hey Guys, you missed a great day. The temperature was about 85 degrees and other than some oil through the line in turn 5a (left by cars over the weekend) the track was in great shape.
Since none of you came out I didn't have any 250s to play with but there was a DRZ400 in the new racer school that I got to dice it up with. The two bikes race in the same class here. The 400 has way more power coming out of the turns (though my engine has 5000 track miles and is starting to smoke like a two-stroke). The power advantage doesn't seems to show as much on the long straights; perhaps the lack of aerodynamics of the taller bike at work. We were fairly even in the slow turns but my 250 literally blew by the 400 in the high speed turns. Each bike has its own strengths and are a fair match but I will take the 250 over the 400.
