Has anyone else true that herd that 7 sandbaggers were caught at middleboro. I herd they were nema amueters who were racing nesc novice. I would not doubt it and believe their are more. All of a sudden there are a couple of 30+c guy who fly by. I got a good start and thought they were b riders by the speed that they came up on me and passed me. Then I noticed they placed in the 250 novice top 4 that day also. Could some pick up the sport that late in life and be that fast? more than one person? If it has been a few yrs since you raced but you were a B rider will they let you start over? Some one told me they were almost expert 10 yrs ago, now they are C rider. Maybe they were serious

Would someone please tell me why this happens!! I dont understand...there is no money for novice, no championship points...you wont get any better by riding with people below your ability...what thrill can you get besides a plastic trophy??? Everyone (including the rider) knows he shouldnt be in that class!! I have seen some "novices" lap most of the field in a four lap heat!! I just dont get it!!

prolly low self esteem on the riders part.. they cant cut it in their own class so to boost their ego they have to go tool on the people in the begginer class.. go figure
