Hadn't you noticed that I don't do my own riding these days?Originally Posted by Drew
I'd rather leave it to someone that has the required reaction time for the task at hand.
People over 50 shouldn't kid themselves that they still have the goods, it declines a little & you need to recognise this. Notice the ages of both these gentlemen?
Que?
Is it this one?

Nope. Wrong road I think.

Low personal B.M.E.P.
This is generally true in my experience too. Guys who are trying just that little harder than they should.
More amusingly, it's this segment of the field where most of the cheating occurs also....

Which is likely why he is chiming in.
The angle will likely be clearly dangerous (as MNZ doesn't get any permit money in coffers from the event.)
They will overlook their own not so perfect safety record, plus the fact that motorsport is inherently dangerous.
All the competitors know and accept this prior to riding.

They were both well older than I am now, when they started racing.
I wasn't having a dig at them.

When their skill level is being discussed in court it's compared to the average person, not the average racer.
Unless the cop was an experienced racer he would be completely out of his depth giving evidence on that, if he isn't already.

Yeah, I suppose you're right.
It's pretty far from ideal, that the person correlating the investigation isn't getting the right information.
In the riders seat
If you attend one of those courts you can dispute what they're saying
"If you can make black marks on a straight from the time you turn out of a corner until the braking point of the next turn, then you have enough power."

More marshalls, more safety, more control over whose on track?
What is this garbage.
It's a bloodey road course, if i enter it and go write myself off they should be throwing me in the coroners van and going ahh well he knew the risk of the event.
End of.
It's as simple as that.
To argue with a man who has renounced the use and authority of reason, and whose philosophy consists in holding humanity in contempt, is like administering medicine to the dead.
