Its a shame eacing has become sterilized and we dont have personalities like that in the proffesional paddock much anymore. Racing needs more personalities like Schwantz and Colin.
Yes there has, seems like its hurting their careers more these days though. The personalities are still there, just not as successful.
I feel like it hurts them this day and age because any racer or organisation putting on a show has to worry about hurting somebodies damn feelings. Sponsors and fans get all butthurt if someone says or does anything not PC.
See, that's the problem. It's discouraged. Full retard is a necessary evil, damn it! We just need that shit once in a while!
No, he went TOO far. He went past Ru$$ell in the corner and was catching crazy horse Lucchinelli on the straight. Different time but you can still have fun. Just not too much.
I'd use JRP as a braking reference to "full retard"... Eslick would get lapped by Gobert at his pace.
Gobert is the yardstick for wasted potential. Would'a, could'a and should'a but flushed it all. Sad. His grand kid could be Maverik Vindaloo in potential and he'll still be fighting that name.
Thanks Dave. Kevin retains his impish grin, and what the hell attitude. I can't imagine how funny/epic the stories would be over dinner and a few refreshments! Wayne and Kevin battles were racing inspirations, and remain public inspirations on how to live life well.
Where is Gobert today? Last I read he was working Subway? Not joking,it was really Subway. Makes me wanna puke!!
