    OK so what I see is something like 24 sidecars racing at Taupo in difficult conditions all teams having more experience than you, Most have selected tyres suitable for the conditions, you can't be arsed changing to a wet rear despite the forecast giving no doubt as to what's coming up.
    So you get out the front and instead of it going through your mind that it's your first meeting, likely you first time in the wet on a sidecar, and on slicks and that everybody else has assessed, or are still assessing the conditions and are behind you and maybe you should back off a little you decide that you're that good at this whole game it's now time to show off to the crowd, and flip the unit.
    The only the Sandra S didn't have was a passenger to be responsible for.

    In saying that get back out there and prove me wrong, and have fun doing it
    You've got it all figured out clearly.

    My ability or lack of it on a race track has nothing to do with what I was trying to convey.

    Sorry mate, you're right.

    I hope the kid smashes the fields here, and goes over seas and does well there too.

    Hey Drew I don't think anyone can figure out you nor me either.One thing is if the Sidecar doesn't nail ya trying you'll be a weapon once you learn to ride it properly so take a little time rather than bull at a gate shit, anyway sorry folks about the thread highjack back to that little cheeky lad from Taupo.

    From past experience Drew is not alone when it comes to convincing Google to cough up the goods.

    No idea about the other kid.
    but this kid generally laps faster on a 85 or 105 than the 450's do.
    Someone stick him on a 125GP and watch what he could do

    Certainly impressive from the vid. If he wants to have a go on the tarmac (or even supermoto) PM me....... how old is he?

    I have zero association with Dylan. I have seen him race for the last 3 years i think he is 14 or 15 now.
    The kid is impressive..........

    Shell we just get this thread renamed "Kids who have the potential to make it into the Big Time"
    Had to choose my words carefully there.....

    As for Roman, I'm picking that not many, if any of you have actually raced against him (except may be Billy has?).
    I can tell you he is a very good racer, and I am very comfortable getting close to him (or him getting close), as he has awesome basic skills.

    His lack of size and weight helps a lot. The basics are there and can be built on as he is willing to listen.

    Nope Ive never raced against him,But I did nearly take him out at Levels earlier in the year when I brake checked him at turn 5 on a test day,Whoops my bad,Not a good look when I'm his mentor,Yea he's definitely got talent,But how far that goes remains to be seen,All I'm saying is he's in the right camp to progress without being bullshitted and hes hungry to go further.
