Topic: Something to think about.

If you're on the fence about racing, can't find the time or finances aren't where you'd like them. Spot making excuses. Instead, take a read below:

Nice.  Let's go racing, y'all c'mon now, hear?  Lol, Bill

[turboguzzi]

nice one, but people like barry sheene, gary nixon, james hunt raced hard and also partied hard I think that valentino rossi still does....

 Kenny Roberts came to town and changed attitudes.    I don't know about Rossi and doing booze and drugs.

We all can remember racers back in the day that charged hard on & off the track. Life in the fast lane baby. Mike can name a few of those.  Today is tame in comparison!

Racing...it's kind of what attracted me to motorcycles in the first place.

I like the top pic Frank.

Yeah, Rossi says he cannot party like he used to.

Boy I know who that is. I spoke with him at the old Sears Point when he was riding a Vance and Hines Ducati. Rob Muzzy said he was the most naturally gifted rider he ever saw and that is saying something. To bad.

 It's not a bike but Roger Rager  bought a 2 year old indy car and  built a small block Chevy stock block engine that was taken out of an old school bus. He towed it to the track on an open trailer behind a station wagon in 1980. Not only qualified ahead of several veterans but led the race before another car spun in front of him and he hit the wall finishing 23rd.
