Let me clear it up for you...
At the race last Sunday...
On the line there was a 250 R to my left and a 450 R to my right.
the flag dropped...my YFZ gave a humphf before it started.
It allowed the 250 R and the 450 R to get a 1/2 quad lead at the 30 foot mark.
Both of these guys were leaning back over the grab bar to attain traction.
The YFZ flew right in between both of them and kept pulling.
All I know is both of those Honda riders (friends don't let friends ride Hondas)
were eating alot of mud and rocks as I hit the first corner with the holeshot.
It was so beautiful as I had clear track ahead and the Hondas were behind.

Also as a positive Yamaha footnote:
Chris Borich has switched over to a Honda 450 R instead of the YFZ.
On lap 3 out of 7, I was waving to Chris Borich as he stood on the sidelines watching the rest of us race. I guess that is what Honda racers do anymore...race half of the race and then watch the rest of the race from the sidelines.
I finished in 3rd place and his name wasn't even mentioned.

Yamaha rules...!!!
