It makes a lot more sense than some of the rules you see come along, like the F1 two races per engine rule. I've always thought that racing has a sort of implied responsibility to develop technology that can be transferred to regular passenger cars and motorcycles. And Heiti, I disagree! More noise! :) Well, keep the same noise. After they develop the "50 mpg @ 200 mph runs on water" race bike, they can start making it quiet! :) Yes, that’s a great idea.

But the first thing they should do is to make the bikes less noisy. Hellofaless noisy! I was standing 200 meters from track and when bike went by (Ducati and Honda, especially), I felt it all over the body, just like being in rock concert and right in front of the speakerwall :) How about streetlegal :) ?

I for one dig the concept, and though the timing is good it's also bad. Not a single rider, racer or wrench can think of anything but to the stops this time of the season. -jim jules,
