Isn't that a big gambling sport over there? I've seen someone once explain what was going on with that video but can't remember too much

Looks like it's a hardtail frame. Interesting to watch him keep the outside peg weighted all the time, and maintaining the front/rear balance, and come from the back of the pack while passing most everyone on the outside. Talk about a purpose-built machine.

That bike almost looks like an old Schwinn Sting-Ray with a motor stuck in it. looks like he almost lost the rear end a couple of times also.

Yeah, it's run similar to horse racing, but the money isn't as big. They also have single speed bicycle races that run the same way.

Wasn't there some USGP action in that movie? I skimmed through it and didn't see it in there.

Interesting that those things use triangular tires, the benefit of only having to turn left.

Man you were flying out there, yeah man when I hit the first turn I realized there was no breaks on this thingSmile

That's their version of speedway. The stingray thing is the normal bike they run and the football jersey is the height of fashion. Like going to the horse races here.

I thought it was Rick Johnson. Was waiting for him to get on the mic and call out the 2 GSXR's that sandbagged in qualifying. Didn't have to, he did his talking on the track!!

I'm guessing the handlebars have to do with sliding out and not getting tangled up in them.

They're designed to be turned left and only left...

Dungey has a 3 on the back of his jersey. That's confusing me. Is it Dungey or Tomac?
