Best motorcycle race vid ever

[dpex]

Oops, its not a competition then?

Yeah your vid looks like it needs music to it. But what to go with such beauty?

On Sunday one of the instructors was telling me that about the best sights he's seen is that of Stroud, Clea, Shirrifs et al, coming into the hairpin at the end of the back-straight, balanced on the front wheel.....Like they're doing 150kph+ stoppies!!!!

To rich for my blood. :--))

In the slow motion vid it is amazing to see just how the bikes are working but the normal speed video is something else. Those riders must carry their cojones around in slings to ride like that!!! There just is no room for error and those walls look pretty solid!

damn that was a religious experience...I watched it 3 times in a row!
The normal speed version was eye popping after the serenity of the slow mo vid. Reminds me of the Akaroa GP, except 10 times faster

That's not Classical! Yes it is orchestral music, but it sounds very modern, like a film score or something... it doesn't have the structure of classical music...

Great vid though!

Its from the Last of the Mohicans soundtrack. Great movie too.

I've been watching the slo-mo a few times. Watching the riders body position and throttle, brake, etc use.

Coming over a bump where they get airborne a number throttle right off. I figured out (I think) that it slows the rear wheel pulling the front of the bike down.

Then there is a guy that gets it all wrong and hammers the front and I wonder what he did to do that.

Then a guy that seems to get the perfect landing.

Oh... so much to learn that you just can't get off a picture or a fast moving vid.

Damned amazing the more I look at it.
