He says they gotta stop. I agree. They are pointless and they look stupid. It's like shooting your horse at the end of the Kentucky Derby.

Eh each to their own. Maybe if It happened after every race or went for hours I'd understand the rant.

Burnouts will never, ever, in any way, shape, or form; in any country; on any planet; or at any point in history. . . be stupid.

Can't say I give a toss either way but wondering what outraged minority group Matthes belongs to that says they have to stop.

If I was 12 years old I would think trashing a factory motor for fun would be really cool. What's the attraction?

Funny, I was listening to the NASCAR channel on XM radio, and some of the commentators were ranting about it there, too.

What would make for a better celebration? Tea and crumpets?

Yeah, shooting that was fun. I was just glad I wasn't behind the bike when the rear tire let loose. Wink

Ehhh I don’t know about this analogy, there’s a difference between killing a living horse and blowing up a machine that your team built from the ground up that won you a championship, lol. I’d say it’s cool to do for special occasions (title clinching round, Vegas, MEC, etc) but maybe not for every single round.

I'm confused as to how a machine is compared to a living, breathing animal. It's just a way of celebrating. It's not like the tire was ever going to be used again, and they will tear the bike all the way down anyway. The team and rider just won a ton of money for winning a championship, so what's wrong with creating a bit of smoke?

This right here. If I won a 450SX championship I would melt the tire off from the race, then have my mechanic install a fresh wheel and proceed to either explode the engine, or explode the tire.

Actually, I think they need to step it up. Take off the muffler real quick, pour gas on the rear tire and light it up.

Haha!..

Well....you definitely don't want to offend anyone , or hurt their feelings. Nevermind what the rider and teams feel like. It's all about puppy dogs , rainbows and ice cream. Maybe they could all get together and plant a tree? In all honesty , those rear tires could be injuring some innocent bugs in the vicinity , or the smoke from the burnout may possibly clog up the breathing patterns of a swallow flying by.

I know......just shut the bike off , let's all hold hands and sing Coomb by ya?

Fuck yes!.....keep doing the damn burnout's! It's kind of a tradition!

Motor going to be rebuilt anyway no stud fee for years like a horse. Only other horse comparison I know of is when I traded my shitland pony for dirt bike in 4th grade I swore never to ride anything else that didn't have tits or a kill switch

This kinda shows the mentality. I guess Gurgle here is our target audience.

Dude, does everything get converted into a political correctness debate in your mind? It sure seems like it.

I remember the picture of Ricky's KX250 in a front end loader.

I'll take a burnout over this any day.

Yeah I thought Anderson revved the engine for faaaaar too long there after the race. I was always taught to respect the bike. Like Dungey. No matter what. It fails on you? You push it. Race is over? Shut it off, put it on the proper kickstand, then celebrate. If my dad ever saw me doing anything like that then I’d be in some deep shit. Of course I had nowhere near the money these guys do growing up so there’s that.
