I guess it is ALL about the money. New IHRA rules

Our track is IHRA. I have been watching street bikes go 9's without a roll cage for years. Not sure how a Demon or Tesla would be any less safe than a Hayabusa.

less safe for the guy in the other lane. 4000+ pounds of metal in the hands( maybe) of a guy with a fat wallet but no track experience.
99% of the time if a bike has an incident, it effects only the rider.
A significant difference…..
