When Rotax was introduced there were only about 5 of them. At the time(2001) 100cc direct drive was ...

Re: Leader-board

The public generally does not even know about the Race Monitor App and may balk at paying $7 for an app that they might use once vs the hardcore karters and their close supporters that pay for the app without a second thought.
