If you made Hannah mad, his skin would turn green and he'd grow into a 8' tall monster

Bob Hannah was always a pretty small guy (especially when standing next to Marty Tripes Wink ).

Bob Hannah was a guy that had everyone buffaloed. Almost any rider on the line could have kicked his ass into never never land. .

Good for Bob, big fail for the rest of the people that thought that Bob was the baddest ass ever.

Simple question here. How many fights do any of you have record of Bob Hannah being in?

It was an ill handling tub of shit but Bob could make it fly. The boots were made by Scott who at the time made ski boots.

None of them are tough of the bike, cmon. They are all 5'-6"-5'8" and 160lbs, are they sopposed to be MMA fighters? I would guess the old timers were the toughest ones though if you had to pick. RC is always referred to as a badass, you think he could fight his way out of a paperbag?

WTF does being in a fight or being good at fighting have to do with anything?

Wondering the same thing? I am pretty sure I could beat the shit out of the entire gate at a SX, at the same time. Who cares?

Depends what you call fight...................Fighting for a win, fighting for a championship. Beats the shit out of some idiot taking a cheap shot at somebody, which is how most fist fights start.

Bob Hannah wore plastic boots. Not to protect himself from the Earth, but to protect the Earth from him. Wink

Bob Hannah has been a Chik Fil A fan since forever. You can bet your ass that will be a lively interview when someone asks him about that. LMAO.

When reading about BH. It sounds like the period of time from when he started racing until he won his first national was like two years. Amazing.

How about not competing for the dumbest post of the day/week/month? There are no awards for that.

Bob was a bada$$, in 1984 I was at a national and watched Bob lap the entire field up to second place.When the checkered flag waved he was inches off the second place guy.Thats how close he came to lapping everyone.The
2nd place guy that didn't get lapped that day? David Bailey.

Bob Hannah lets Chuck Norris live because Bob Hannah doesn't like anyone talking about Bob Hannah. As a matter of fact if Bob Hannah knew there was a thread about Bob Hannah on any computer Bob Hannah would tell us all to go fuck off and all the computers in the world would qui
