a racing CB750 rototiller
« on: August 21, 2013, 08:48:38 AM »
I saw this on the Travel Channel (Aug. 20th) on a show called "F'ing Fast" and thought you guys should see this.  They said the object of this race is to run 200 ft. down the track holding onto the tiller while not being dragged behind it.  If you get dragged, you lose (in more ways than one).  I say the object of this race is to be able to walk away from it intact.  :o

I've never seen torque wrenches raced...

Initially, I was going to say cats.  But, I'd have been wrong.

Why couldnt they have chosen a different motorcycle for the tiller racing? Yet one more way of depleting our piles of intact bikes & parts.  :'(
