Sidecar Racing

[scrivy]

I know a rider who went off at T1 at Ruapuna after they made a similar comment and the swinger decided to show them how wrong they were

I obviously know they help the machine get around, but I was referring to actual placement on the track - they don't decide which line to take. ie. safely going up the inside into a corner, or going around the outside without hitting the passed rig..... the passenger is there for the ride.... doesn't matter if he's done 25 years, or 25 minutes, he doesn't control the positioning, so exactly what experience does he/she need?? Other than sheer guts and strength? 1 test day is better than 3 stamps for a passenger in IMO....

You really think you can do either of those things and put that outfit where you want it without them being in the right place at the right time?

The swinger can alter your line and placement on the track anytime they "decide" just most of time it's in their best interest not to

Kick is correct, hence why i have taken the handle bars off my rig.

The swinger test should be a lap with Scrivy, observed by kick, Ritchie & me as judges.
You would also be graded on that Aussie term, "hover"

Oh FFS, the worlds full of munters.....

I said the passengers dont get to take the lines on the track (passing lines etc...) so they dont need the experience a rider needs....
They also don't get to decide where the machines gunna brake, or what line out of a corner the machine will be in and at which point the noisey stick will come on.....

I KNOW THEY KEEP IT ON 3 WHEELS..... BUT NOT AT A CERTAIN POINT ON A TRACK.....
FFS!!

I'd rather take Kick out at the HAG day on Gordys rig, and see if he can make me take a certain line.......!
