Re: Macau gp.

Re: Macau gp.
Same here,I want to get the riders view,not a view of their arse.
I dont know how they get that 'through the visor' view but I think it's excellent

Re: Macau gp.
My old boss spannered for a BSB team that went to Macau a few times. One of the stipulations was if you wanted to come back next year was you didn't crash! They were incredibly well looked after by the Government, drinks machine in the pit that was refilled daily and compulsory invites to swanky evening do's.
Then there were the ladies of the night..........
"Of all the stories you told me, which ones were true and which ones weren't?"
"My dear Doctor, they're all true."
"Even the lies?"
"Especially the lies."

a) if you crashed you wouldn't be invited back
or
b) if you crashed you'd be brown bread and unable to race (or do anything) the following year
That's been the case since the 1970/80s I'm reliably informed. I was told in no uncertain terms by a former racer that what happens in Macau stays in Macau...MingtheMerciless wrote: Sat Nov 18, 2023 9:19 am They were incredibly well looked after by the Government, drinks machine in the pit that was refilled daily and compulsory invites to swanky evening do's.

Re: Macau gp.
Back in the day the bike's were a sideshow to the cars & riders asked not to go 100% as it's so dangerous.The crash & you can't return rule was a method of getting the riders to rein it in.mangocrazy wrote: Sat Nov 18, 2023 12:40 pm
