That's racing. On the flip side, I bet that lights a fire under them.

I guess we'd better be polite to the Can-Am and Popo guys for a while, they'll be grinning each time they see a Honda guy...

Yeah they've only had 5-10 years to perfect their junk to last. These boys had less than 2 years.

There are plenty of Polarass and Canned Hams on that list with a zero next to them. If the aftermarket wasn't there to beef them up, they would have trouble finishing. Honda will make it happen, and as they sell more Talons, the aftermarket will kick in. I still believe all of this would be expedited if they would offer factory turbo, instead of the kit plan.

No matter the investment, experience, and skill of a team with deep resources has. "The desert always gets a say." That's a quote yesterday from one of the long term winning desert race veterans.

In endurance races the winner is not always the fastest, just the smartest.

Yes the two guys that placed 6th & 7th in the Pro Turbo class were naturally aspirated machines entered in both the NA & Turbo classes.

Power to spare, and a properly dialed chassis afford you the luxury of not having to charge into everything, and take risks. Go fast where it makes sense.

That says a lot about saving your equipment to finish. Back when I raced endurance motor cycle races, it was the brakes that were the weak link that you save for the finish.
