Yes you need skills all I'm saying is its easyier to fake it in a car, dont believe me come on out you can ride my bike. I'm not sure how we got onto speedway vs cars that wasnt my objective, my objective was to once again state my disgust for wings, and to stir things up on a slow day. Mission accomplished.
I had to edit this to try to distinquish the difference between driving ANY car and riding a Speedwaybike. Say you hop out in a sprintcar, any sprintcar. You start out going pretty quick, cause lets face it, thats what they're setup to do. You drive some laps getting faster and faster till going down the front stretch youre not sure if you can make the coming corner. Since your going straight you slowly let off the trottle and use just a touch of brakes. This slows you ever so slightly and with those huge contact patches you manage to scare yourself but make it thru the corner.
Now the same straight and corner on a Speedwaybike. Now if you know speedway the whole key is keeping your rear tire spun up, even in the straights. Know getting a little spooked you let off just a bit on the speedwaybike, the bike does two things instantly. First it wheelies, than it picks up speed like your being shot out of a sling shot. Now if yur lucky the front end is down and you dont wheelie into the wall, problem is theres no way your going to just ride thru the corner, impossible on four to six inches of contact patch, your going to push into the wall. Your next obtion is the difference between severe injury and just getting wadded up. You better blast that ***** wide open the second that front tire hits the decomposed granite, especially the instant you hit the wall, that way you might get lucky and blast off to crash away from the wall, otherwise your going to get sucked in. Going thru 3/4 treated plywood with your body sucks. Thats kinda the difference.
