    Pikes Peak Hill Climb: Paved = New classes?

    So I just read that they are finished paving Pikes Peak. Does this mean they will be adding a supersport and superbike class?

    I checked the ppihc website and it doesn't mention anything about the pavement or what changes are coming for 2012.
    Current bike: 2005.5 KTM 950 Adventure (63k miles)
    Previous Bikes: 2010 KTM 690 Enduro R / 2009 BMW F800GS / 2010 Triumph Daytona / 2007 GSXR 750 / 2004 CRF450 Sumo / Yamaha Secca II

    I believe superbikes of sorts will be permitted. Can't remember what article I saw it in though.
