Whos up for banning senior J s at State and National level? Im sick of going to a major meeting waiting for senior j's to finish wobbling round the track at a slower pace than i ride my ride-on mower, and watching them do the double fist #1 air punch when they are done boring us all. Seriously guys, its all good to start out in j's and if thats all you can afford then great, but when it comes to state and nationals, get off our race track and let us get to the pub early for a change.

I'm sorry, but who died & made you guys kings???
As far as I am concerned, it takes a lot of skill to race at the front of a J field. Even more than the high powered classes. Nothing worse than seeing a new comer think he is so great because he has the power of a Tag.
Ohh Ohh look at me, I am fast in a straight line. The best race craft I have seen is in J racing. Hands down.
If you want to see boring racing, go watch the CIK class. The first 10 laps are great, then it becomes a precession. 10 odd kart lengths between each kart at the end of the finals. And that is supposed to be the best in OZ? Right.
I'd have to disagree. I have driven everything from a Comer to a DD2, and it takes far more skill to get a Rotax or Leopard around a track than a J. They are a good class for grass roots level, as it teaches great racing lines, and race craft, but do they really need a position at State and National Titles?

i agree Bret, great for beginning and juniors, but thats as far as they should go...not only are they fast in a straight line Troy, they are fast everywhere...and not boring.

Wow i see we struck a nerve here Troy...while there is a certain skill required to make a J fast, the reason it is so close up the front is because people can't make them go any faster, they've reached the limits and rely on ducking their heads ridiculously whilst sitting right up the rear end of the kart in front. In a faster class you're faced with setting up a kart for more corner speed (and even HARD braking) and a much more aggressive style of driving to what im sure you can even begin to imagine. I mean surely u cant tell me that speed in itself isn't enough to make you want to watch clubman or 125???
