    How about we let the racers, teams and race organization figure it out? Nah, that wouldn't be any fun.

    I'm just enjoying the fact that @G 97 is talking about watching (presumably enjoying) a TWINS Class race.

    Welcome to the dark side.

    There’s a silver lining in even the darkest depths of suffering. :D

    Did Kris Shove on Barney when that happened??? Nope, he alteredhis line and passed him on the Curbing.
    My point was, Barney was more than willing to block Kris, that makes Pushing him to gain room that much worse IMO.

    I'm pretty sure Melka stating other peoples opinions are not as good as his because they weren't the ones touched is complete bullshit no matter how many millions of laps he's raced.

    Between an informed opinion and an ill informed opinions. I’ll go with the informed one. This isn’t bullshit, it’s real life experiences.
    The fact is, they weren’t the ones being touched, so how can they make a statement of fact towards what impact it had on said rider.

    backcountryme Word to your mother.

    If Barns was up on Kris far enough that he could reach straight over and touch him, then he was right next to Kris. He had the track position. It is ok for Kris to then squeeze Barns into the grass?

    So every other racer in the world except him is ill informed in your mind? The only person who can make a statement of fact is Turner, and I think it's pretty clear how he feels about it.

    Hell I'm not sure it's cool to be running off the inside of the track onto the curbing to stuff up under someone either...

    Every other racer in the world? No, just the ones who have little to no experience on the matter.


    Never stated otherwise. And yet you are also making comments.

    I won’t bother to point out your contradiction. ;)

    Who judges experience levels? My only comment is that on the racetrack people should keep their hands to themselves.

    Barney was pretty far away from Chris when he put his hand on him. In my opinion that was uncalled for...

    Then the next lap into turn 8 Barney rubbed up the inside of him.

    Evidently you do by going from what you previously posted. And far from your only comment. Just saying.

    How can Barnes be both “pretty far away” and also be in easy arms reach to put “a hand on” another rider?


    That’s racing.

    I'm not sure if he really cares or if he's just commenting to be a troll.

    2 different spots on the track ding bat. Did you even watch the fucking race?

    LOL. A little sensitive. You made the statement not me about being pretty far away and still being able to put a hand on him, not me. We’re they also pretty far away in the paddock. LOL.
