And it never will.

Such a ā– ā– ā– ā– ā– ā– ā–  expert aren’t you :yawning_face:

Just out of interest how many race prepped machines have you rode/driven competitively?

One person on this thread certainly has (he may well still do for all I know) yet he doesn’t come out with the waffle you do. I know which one I’d listen to.

Peace.

Empty vessels make most noise.
The top flight engineer, who cannot fix a simple brakeline, is making more noise than everyone else combined.

He’s gone back to typing stuff that even he doesn’t understand when he reads it back!

Babel fish.

As in formula racing for position in which the object is erratic lap times to the point where ideally the pole sitter in practice finishes last after leading the race for every alternate lap and being overtaken by slower competitors on every other.

Or in which every competitor crosses the finish line together at the same time.

You started a topic regarding ā€˜race fans’ , which suggests that they/we are all in it for a continuous overtaking and swapping of positions fest.

As opposed to a contest of unlimited machines, based on which can cover a distance, or the most distance, in the shortest amount of time.Which is the definition of the videos I’ve posted.

That’s all I’ve said no need for the personal hate campaign.

Ironically it would be the difference between the MSA speed licence which I had v race licence which I didn’t and had no interest in.Why do you think I needed it ?.

Speechless! Has this scenario ever ever happened in any field of competitive motorsport since the invention of the internal combustion engine?

Apart from in the tortured synaptic pathways inside your head of course.

I know and you know that what I said is a sarcastic observation, of the accurate description of the type of overtaking and position swapping fest that the video maker is whingeing about.

As opposed to leading a race from pole position at the start to finish or for that matter the 7 litre Ford GT40 win over Ferrari at Le Mans, both of which I’m sure that he’d find boring.Or for that matter Superbikes at the TT no interest in 250’s or 500’s let alone Moto GP.

Some of the best bike racing is the 125s. The riders rely on their riding skills, rather than brute horsepower and almost unlimited speed.

Yeah right let’s ban superbikes and pro stock at the TT and limit it to 250 and racing for position not against the clock.We can also apply a 50 mph speed limit and traffic calming chicanes and engine restrictors to increase safety and overtaking opportunities.That will increase attendance levels and interest by all those disgruntled Moto GP fans.

WTF are you rabbiting on about Carryfast, or have you been smoking the drapes again?

Wtf are you on about man :rofl: .

He’d probably talk a lot more sense if he smoked a joint or two!

Pure 100% sarcasm directed at circuit race fans.Obviously not those of us out at 3am on the Mulsanne in the 1980’s or on the fastest sections of the TT course during the Superbike sessions.I knew you probably won’t understand it.

Agreed. Let’s have some…

This isn’t racing though according to our expert :yawning_face:

Did someone mention Motor Sport Fans and overtaking.

As opposed to Superbikes racing against the clock and their spectators not whingeing about the nuisance of sometimes needing to overtake a slower competitor ahead which might or might not compromise the lap times.Let alone the relative skill levels involved v 125 racing for position.

The closest you’ve ever been to motor sports, Carryfast, is as a spectator.
