A racing thread, anyone ???

[tuono robbo]

As much as I like to see the Aprilia team win,I just cant warm to Max this year.He rode like a complete **** to take out Johnny Rea in race 1.Fookin' bloke has lost it,I reckon.

And then had the cheek in the interview at the end of the day to say Rea's bike took him out in race one, messed up his lid & collar bone which is why he didn't press for the win in race two, Checca was gone, was 2 seconds a lap faster, every lap, than nearly everyone else. Even Hodgson commented that Max was talking drivel :lol

has that v4 shrunk in the rain or is Camier a fecking giant

Camier's 6'2" apparently, so about 7 inches taller and 3 stone heavier than Biaggi ... and still kept 2 seconds clear of him .. the boy did good

 

[shvlheadwolf]

One of the reasons that I like Camier is that he is close to normal size. And I LOVED the second Miller race. Two three for CAMIER and max. Camier SPANKED Biaggi and I love it. Carlos was soooo smooth I just can't seem to scowl at him or be mad that he beat the Prillas. He flowed that 1198 around the track so gracefully I expected to see pointe shoes on him insteada boots. Great racing. Loved it.

And I like this season of MotoGP because I'm still waiting to see what Rossi is going to make of his Duc. I still ******* HATE Pedrosa and Lorenzo.

Anyone think that Aprilia will go racing in 2012 with the rule changes?

Just watched the racing at Miller, thought it was pretty gash meself. Nice to see Checa tossing it off at the front and not conking out on the last lap. Mad innit how some of em get in to their late 30's and it just sort of happens, everything clicks and they make it looks soooo easy.

 

[baggy]

Nevermind all that short circuit boring stuff what about all the hero's/loons that are racing at the TT?
And i'm putting a big shout out for my mate Jules Croft (number 69) riding in the Superbike & Senior races.:thumbup

 

[shvlheadwolf]

And what about the NW 200. Road racers are an entirely different and crazy breed. I've been to Macau and it is completely ASTOUNDING that those loonie *******s RACE on those streets and through the Armco... The Racing Museum in Macau is pretty kool too! Hard men that race there...

And then there's Olivers Mount Scarborough,Englands only road race circuit.If you have'nt been,its the perimeter road around a park,high above the town.I love the place and been umpteen times before,but I took some mates up there and showed them around.Here's the start/finish with the T on pole,of course!

And here's how it should be done.

Watch McGuiness nearly flip it at 2mins 30.eek:eek

 

[baggy]

Yeah Macau is proper mad! Remember seeing Dennis Winterbottom's leathers and helmet after Macau GP, both scuffed from armco. The mate i'm shouting for at the TT is doing a couple or three meetings at Olivers Mount this year, it an awsome track, paths round some other circuits are wider than the track there!

 

[baggy]

To be honest i take my hat off to anyone who has the enthusiam, guts and talent to get out there and race, from club level to MotoGP, road & track and especially our up and coming talents, Scott Redding, Danny Webb, Bradley Smith etc.

 

[shvlheadwolf]

KB, all I can say is a humble thank you. That clip was ******* KILLER!!!!!!!! Absolutely LOVED IT!!! That is some serious racing. The slider catching in the grass, John almost looping it, and about 4:20, that *** cutting off the camera bike twice in quick succession. Fabulous soundtrack and EPIC racing. Again, thanks mate!!!

 

[Keith B]

Glad you enjoyed it mate.
That was Guy Martin winning the Gold Cup meeting.He used to be the king around there,....I think he won it about 7 times.Ryan Farquar is the man these days.
For me,Scarborough is a fantastic ride through Lincolnshire,across the Humber Bridge,then over the Wolds.About 130miles.

todays telly racing

Vegetating on the couch all day again, but heyho the racing was decent.

Them TT boys are friggin potty, gutted for GM again, wtf.
Why can't you overtake anymore in Gp's ??? I thought the 125's decision was disgusting, they both would have done the same surely.
Bradders, ffs, he was going well when he got slowed coz of the accident and then I reckon he was going round yon mon and he fooked up and forced Bradders off.
Cal was well pissed of with himself, why ? he did great.
Colin Edwards the fuggin mong wanted to start the race after just getting out of hospital with a broken collar bone, he looked like he was still on morphine to me. What a man.

 

[180slayer]

moto2 was good, that crash with Simon was scary to watch lucky to get up and walk away fae it

 

[Jase]

Fell asleep during the motogp - it was that good:no and what the F happened to Side show bob ? fastest in qualifying and then nowhere ? Reckon he's had a warning and told to think about his ride and factory parts etc etc from Honda - sit back like a good lad and dont outshine the factory boys again. It was just dull.
TT on the other hand has been fab - and yeah was gutted for Guy Martin yesterday - but had to smile when he stomped off under that tree!

 

[Nob]

I quite enjoyed the 800's, maybe because I watched that on BBC instead of Europoop. Deffinately better listening to racers rather than journo's.

 

[aka_Gilo]

Moto GP today was yawn-inducing.

TT so far has been superb as always. Not taking anything away from the Moto GP, WSB, BSB etc guys, total respect for what they do, but I reckon true road racers (Dunlop, McGuiness, Martin, Cummins, etc etc) have the biggest balls.

 

[Aldo]

J, reckon yer spot on wae this.

what the F happened to Side show bob ? fastest in qualifying and then nowhere ? Reckon he's had a warning and told to think about his ride and factory parts etc etc from Honda - sit back like a good lad and dont outshine the factory boys again.

 

[Keith B]

The MotoGP show has become a joke.It seems that you cant overtake a Spanish rider on a Spanish circuit,...WTF!
I hear the Superglue/Simon crash is being investigated too.
MotoGP has too few bikes on the grid and incredably boring racing,....what happened to the fairing bashing,blood 'n guts racing of a couple of years ago?

I have a ticket for Silverstone this weekend,...might sell it and watch it on tv,.....at least I can fast forward if its boring.

 

[wes]

I have entered the Bemsee formula 400 and open races at Silverstone on the 18/19th June. Even though MotoGP is a bit dull to watch, be cool to be racing on the same tarmac the following weekend.

Only thing is...I've never raced there before, so must tape a map to the tank!
