Rule of thumb for racing.

Rule of thumb for racing.
If you have a truck, don't race cars.
If you have a car, dont race motorcycles.
If you have a motorcycle, dont race helmetless.

I don't know where your at in Texas, but we have a lot of nasty LS-powered trucks running around that post some very impressive times, and several cars that easily pull on bikes.

Now if your talking about it from a safety point of view, then yes, bikes shouldn't be lining up with cars/trucks and most tracks won't allow it anyway.

Keep it at the track.

I was unfortunately present to see this idiot race at Bristol, hoping for the 1st ever Monster Truck 100mph 1/4-mile. Didn't get above 60mph, almost jumped the median, and tore up the track.
