Motorcycle racing (even at club level) is more mental than you might think.Originally Posted by Snowman
I have seen riders overcome a money and horsepower deficit against a riders of equal ability, and win. I have also seen a 'club racer' beat two AMA riders (one who stood on an AMA Superstock podium in 2008) on equal equipment, sure the two AMA guy's cried about the club racer's 'local track knowledge' but that wasnt the case at all. I guess they just needed an excuse as to why they were beat heads up by a club racer who didnt have the same money in his bike.
