Who made an excuse? I have none. Got beat fair and square.
But while we are on the subject, why didn't you run the DM on Saturday? Scared of the hill?
That would make sense because the two "rider hills" you've run this year you got beat at, by a 4-stroke no less. So you had way more motor, self proclaimed skill and still got beat by an 80HP 4-stroke.
Just saying. And again, no excuses. You had the better run, plain and simple. I think it's awesome. I like seeing guys go fast, even if it means I got beat.
