Havn't got time to see the vid, but in europe there was a sport where people race litre bikes (and other sizes) around the mini car training circuits (these are street layouts, but only 1/4 size) in amongst that lot are obsticle courses that you have to negotiate - also requires a bit of stunting ability as some of the gaps are too small to get the bike thru. They are all time based, not one on one and I can remember having a go on one that required a 90 degree turn during a stoppie to get thru the two cones.

Havn't seen anything here. I suppose thats why no-one has any road bike skills :banana: :wari:

no, front wheel drive still, but nothing in the back and all the weight at the front. Then big grippy wheels (can you say grippy?) on the front and skinny nothings on the back.. Hey presto - a stoppie..

It like a bike version of auto cross / motorkana looks fun.... perhaps we can setup something?

just ultra-grippy on the front, and nothings on the back. Big handbrake and it'll go where the front wheels point. A touch of skill would help here too.. Look at the size of the front wheels compared to the backs. If it were rear drive, then it'd powerslide from the spins it does

might watch it again later frame by frame... mine was an ex mini sevens car... nothin in the back (cept rust) and tried all sorts of combos to make it do stupid shit.... still was nuthin like that
