    FastByKids Tire Warmers What?

    This group tends to be sensitive so tread lightly. My wife had even made a comment on a couple situations!
    Let’s see what type of news comes out today if anything….

    I have yet to see visuals like yesterday pan out to cheating. Especially among front runners. Either they are waaayyyyy out front or they're not up front at all (which makes me laugh when they're busted - those also tend to be the most vocal about how much everyone ahead of them is cheating).

    It'd be interesting to compare data for all of them with their different styles but still so close to each other and see who is making up time where.

    Sensitive to calling people cheaters without proof? Well duh.

    FastByKids Tire Warmers What?

    Aaaaaaand have not seen anyone call anyone a cheater thus far.

    I’m all for those who brake later and get on the gas earlier. :D

    Jesus, read what Papa wrote.

    Then read what I wrote.

    The family and friends of Scott aren’t the only ones who are affected by this. Remember the ones who were on the scene have trauma from this, too, and be there for them.

    Fuck, it’s not that difficult. Mongo starts making shit up and flapping his pie hole over his creative interpretations and the shit gets a life of its own.

    What the actual fuck? Garth gets it?

    I really need to work on my messaging.

    Never said anyone did. I was commenting on your post about being sensitive, not talking about anything specific.

    Sucks you said the wrong thing but don't be blaming me for your shit. No one is expected to show up after trauma like that. Nor are they required to. Your post made it seem as if they were being ignored rather than simply posting a basic "thoughts and prayers for all the workers impacted by this incident". If you'd chosen to do that rather than ramp it up to make it seem like the riders and sanctioning body were expecting things they shouldn't be, no one would have said a word...

    Yes, I heard it about 15 times during the broadcast

    Definitely some broadcast coaching opportunities. :p

    While I’m not really into the series, at least it is heavily sponsored / supported.

    Thanks for your predictability.

    He sure isn't afraid to Stretch the throttle cables...perhaps he moved the throttle stop..so it is ON the Edge of The RedLimiter.

    Using your own word - expecting - I still disagree with what you said. Why would I say I misunderstood something I understood perfectly?

    Looks like, they put out a bulletin about only superbike needing stickers on rains.

    Could be they got the gearing right for drafting a bunch of people. Too many variables to guess without data from everyone and tearing em all down.

    :stupid: And getting on the throttle sooner.
    (When does a faster rider/bike constitute cheating.)

    Cool. Disagree with me all you want.

    You still misunderstood. Which is what I told you in my first response.

    Your own perceived infallibility is as predictable as your next post…wait for it.

    Oh, now it’s the rest of the group that tends to be sensitive. :confused:
    If anything indeed. ;)
