Any idea how hard it would be to ride one of the front runners without traction control?
Have a look at the times of 2 stroke without it then add 40% extra grunt.
They are not exactly soft, or maybe you could show us how it's done!

okay Rossi antics were "funny" but hardly controversal ....

The superbike boys seem to enjoy it with two race's a day they can still raise a smile and have a laugh at the end of it all...
Both Gp and WSBK boys have sponsers to please i guess it depends on how ya do it ...

it would be hard but thats the point init ?

i'm not saying its easy to do what they do but they showed a shot of
someone's throttle and they just had it pinned as soon as they could coming out the corner letting the machine / traction control do all the work... where's the skill in that?

And so is this!
Stoners crash pictures are NOT
Pet crashing pics are neither.
But,... Pet taking hicky out is GOLD esp. if nobody got hurt!
