Motor_Centre Added a reply to Funny thing about Pipe Dream is
8/7/2015 1:36am Maddison had selected a wave locals call a 'west bomb', a hooking monster that closes out the entire bay. By the time he realized what he'd done, it was too late to turn back.

7/8/2015 9:30pm The move to 4 Strokes has a lot to do with Honda subscribing to the global effort to reduce hydro carbon emissions. They make cars and plane and are large enough to be part of the debate at that level.They probably committed to making an effort to do so at some convention some where some time. KTM is small in...

7/1/2015 11:02pm What I saw was when they first came out they where faster than the 85cc the class they where supposed to compete in. Early adopters road them and won. Then they where shut down for that very reason they out performed all the 85cc so where not allowed in that class - So it was a rule and class issue...

6/17/2015 11:10pm Electric RC is easy and convenient but the batteries do not last long . Like you say Petrol RC is a lot more fun since it involves the mechanical. Since MX is about fun . Electric will have its place but sensible is the opposite of having FUN ! Its about knowing your target market - Sure there is a...

2/28/2015 1:44am Todays modern Turbo engined cars are much lighter than their same horspower normally asperated versions ! So why would it not be the same for motorcyles if built today by manufacturers ? Turbo charged motors are much more efficient than normally asperated motors - Meaning to produce the same amount of power they use less fuel.

2/26/2015 9:05pm AMA road racing does not threaten MotoGP - So there is no problem. I am talking AMA Motocross and AMA Supercross ! The concept I am attemting to explain is putting FIM in charge of AMA MX and SX is like putting mexico in charge of USA imegration.
Motor_Centre Added a reply to Mitch Payton's comment on the FIM

The problem with the AMA is that for a long time the AMA series has been the coverted series ! By Riders and Fans and the FIM MXGP not so much. So...
