Yeah, my brother used to doing club racing on a 250cc 2-stroke and as far as I recall he would do one 20 minute race and one practice on a set of tires. The rubber is like silly putty. I think the bike developed 80 hp and only weighed about 275 lbs. Amazing!

Is VIR a good track for walk around spectating or do you need to plant yourself in a grandstand? Were the crowds rowdy biker types or just into racing?
