The RC3 raced Sunday and came in first in it's class, division, but I do not know how many other bikes in it's class were also entered in the race?
CSC Blog made a video of Sunday's action, but only showed the blue RC3 in front of one other bike?

If you look on WERA's website, you can see the other riders racing in class:

But at the beginning of the video, you can see that they were probably riding amongst other riders. And in the two straighaway video clips, you can see that Wheeler was up front and leading behind the second bike.

The F-Class group that Wheeler was riding in had 3 Kawasaki Ninja 250s and then Wheeler on the CSC RC3. Pretty darned impressive for Wheeler, CSC and Zongshen that the first time out, Wheeler was able to get in front, appear to hold the lead and win the race, beating 3 other Kawasaki Ninja 250s that had many more seasons to optimize their setup.

Yeah, I think it means "other than Kawasaki, Honda, Yamaha, etc.) But i think WERA will probably add "ZONG" to the list of manufacturers given Wheeler's performance.

Great showing for a first race.
Here's a link to the video.

Kinda noisy but some of the comments were interesting. Sounded as if Roland thought the bike had more in it. Change the pipe, go up a couple teeth on the rear sprocket, and a power commander. Didn't know there was a power commander option for this bike. Possible for the RX3 as well???

I would want to see everyone that raced post up a (true, no 'sand bagging') "Hot Lap Time" from each bike, it will tell a lot more of the bikes performance compared to the riders ability
