why did the The Rejects Club link thread get chopped,is fook all safe if gaz or gaz related is mentioned.

 

As a contributor you'll know there's a five page thread relating to Gaz in the contributors room, so it won't be that.

 

Perhaps it was removed because it's something to do with promoting a banned member. :huh:

F1 is gash :mrgreen:

 

Very true but theres fook all else on :(

 

Moto GP, proper racing with over taking and stuff :wink:

 

overtaking is easier when you are a quarter of the width of an f1 car, not to mention slower. F1 rules.

In 2006 when the GP bikes were 990cc the Ducati was pulling higher top speeds than a Ferrari F1 car.

 

Slightly slower now the capacity has been reduced to 800cc.

Let me see a bike match an F1 car's cornering speed then I'll be convinced.

 

Wasn't there a test match between an F1 car and the equivalents in bikes and boats a few years back? As I recall Jenson Buttons Honda trounced the bike in the straights and the corners.

 

I'm perhaps unusual in so far as despite the fact I've had bikes of my own for years, bike racing has never done anything for me. I too see Johnny's point, a bike is very narrow and the track is very wide, therefore easy to overtake and easy (for me at least) does not equal exciting.

I remember the very test on tv. It was however a very strange unfair test.

 

The bike was a domestic Superbike, which is a production bike that anyone can buy, which is nowhere near as fast as a GP bike which is a proto-type bike and is the two wheeled equivilent of an F1 car.

 

It would be like racing an F1 car against a Touring car, both very different machines :thumbsup:

Fair do's, I didn't know that. Still reckon the car would win in a lap of a circuit though :mrgreen:

 

Oh and just for good measure: - Blah blah blah :lol:

The first one is the episode of fifth gear that I assume you are on about

 

 

This one is one that I found on pootube whilst looking for that one up there

Yes thats the one, I thought it did well for a modified road bike. It was a Honda Fireblade. I have one in my shed, I think I might go for a ride now after watching that :mrgreen:

 

See if I can find any F1 cars to race :lol:
