Not nearly as stupid as someone who digs up a 3 month old post because 
his life is so empty.

Which has nothing to do with "Until this year I always used to beat all 
of the cars across intersections."

> Obviously you're not capable of riding that fast. Yet you claim to be a racer. 

I don't look for a challenge in beating cars across intersections.

> So you're not a Cat 4 because the fields in your area are too small to have cat 4 & 5. 

Nope, I'm not a cat 4 because I upgraded in 1988, and cat 4 fields in my 
area do very well https://www.road-results.com/race/19447#cat223411

> That still puts you at the bottom and you can't even beat cars across intersections despite the fact that you're moving 35 lbs and they are moving more than a ton and have to take their foot off of the brake and put it on the accelerator. Show us even more of how witless you are.

The fact that you think that's how it works shows who's the witless 
wonder here...
