The difference is the perception of risk. Flat chat into the sweeper on Mt Wgtn is a whole different ball game to flat chat into the kink at Pukekohe at 300kmh+ with the back drifting. Nearly as long as I can remember I've had big bikes and buckets though the big bike hasn't been used for a bit. Good fun for different reasons.

Here's one That was prepared earlier.

The competition and relative pace are actually much, much higher from what I see...

Two questions that demonstrates my line of thinking about that is:

Who is going to win the superbikes this/next year?

Who is going to win the bucket GP this year?

Depending on who is going to compete for each one The first question has 2 likely answers with 3-4 more close possibles.

The second one has far more in with a great shot and far more in with an OK chance.

Thus, in my mind, making it more competitive.

I know not everyone sees things the same way as me and I don't dislike superbikes, shit I'd give it a crack if I could.

Wanna swap bikes?

TRRS 2009. Can't remember who won it, all I remember is seeing the 3 mouseketeers doing well and having lots of fun. Tim was leading early in the race, and they came about 8th/10th, somewhere round that mark. No idea who won. No idea what the rider coming in just before the white flag had planned, but remember watching him come in, thinking, what the hell are you doing, you're just about finished, you don't need gas.

I would agree with that statement

If you were at the track today I would have been happy to palm it off
