Yeah it's been pretty ridiculous the past few years. Lots of C class riders on basically national ready bikes. I think its like that nationwide though.

It's fun to fix up your bike so you can't really blame them for wrenching and building a nice bike... But its tough for the guys on a budget to race against stuff like that.

its the best when they have a fully race quad with like you said 12k in it and they completely suck. im sure every one has seen them.

That's part of it, even in C class. When I started in C class, I was on a basically stock 400ex, and moved up to a basically stock 450R. I always liked outriding guys on my stock stuff.

Good for the sport if people are buying parts. Keeps the companies in business. Good for them!

It doesn't matter how much money or what parts you have on your quad. You can have the best of the best and most expensive quad out there and it won't mean crap. It's ALL about the rider.

I've seen kids who go out and buy absolutely EVERYTHING for their quads, and get smoked by someone on a stock 450 with a slip on.

Rider skills > Money

Obviously a race ready one.

All I'm saying is rider skill is more important than how big someones wallet is

i literally would be willing to bet that alot of the people that races C and B class (Including myself) would have very close to the same lap times on stock bikes with just nerfs and motorwork. Like you said, you can have Titanium a-arms and super hydrogen air shocks, but if you don't have the skill to ride with it it really makes no difference
