LOL. I started lifting late in life. I was a mountain climber and marathon runner before I started lifting weights to fix a knee problem. But I wish there were masters coefficients in racing for an old guy and an old bike. Then I would have a corrected eight-second 1/4mile.

As for Lookout Mountain, it doesn't matter if you have an RD400 or R6. It just takes guts. Half of the fifty-odd corners are blind. How fast do you want to go around a blind corner when you don't know what's on the other side?

By the way, Motards aren't new. I saw them on Lookout Mountain over 25 years ago. Two-stroke dirt bikes with street tires. They weren't fast going up, but they were superfast coming down.
