    Yep. I’ve seen the crash truck have to leave the track property to go fetch a motorcycle in the yard on the other side of the berm.

    T1 at RRR is no joke. A fast T9 onto the huge straight, then you stare down that sand berm when you enter the braking zone. I’ve watched too many bikes crash because the riders target fixate on the (relatively short) runoff and huge wall of dirt outside the turn. RIP to the driver.

    Ah, the good ol’ Suzuki Eye-abuser. The perfect bike for the rider who loves the attention of going fast, but can’t be bothered to learn how to turn without putting their feet down. Bless their hearts.

    Eh, I’d rather leave it to the pros:

    Likely scenario: when the Falcons scored, ol shitdick here likely pursed his lips in disapproval so hard that he temporarily cut bloodflow to his brain and lost some short-term memory function.

    What can we say about that XJ that hasn’t already been said about Afghanistan?

    After 11 years of kicking ass, two cancer surgeries, and one pair of seriously gimpy hips, Goose was having trouble jumping into my old Trailblazer, so I gave it to my nephew and brought this jewel home. Her name is Judy the SuperDuty and she hauls him wherever he wants to go, and is also a great weekend

    This is not the kinja we need, but it is the kinja we deserve.

    CP, if only because I can’t give money to someone who parks like this:

    You forgot to mention that, if the oil in the forks is more than a few years old, it’s going to smell like refried ass, fear, and regret - make sure you’re in a well-ventilated area. With fans.

    There’s no shortage of assholes in a race paddock, but Nicky is almost universally loved and respected by everyone in all the racing orgs for which he’s raced.

    Ugh, that’s some bad fat, Harry.

    Shouldn’t you include the cost of obtaining the gauge and camshaft tools?

    The engine note from the interior shots sounds like a big Ducati twin. Pure sex.

    I’m so, so very proud to be a season ticket holder right now. Eeeesh.

    Steph Curry may kick puppies and slap babies in private, but he consistently comes off an eminently likable dude.

    This dude gets it.

    In his defense, he did make quite clear (in the title, even) that he’s a total idiot.

    New T12 breaks up the flow of the track, but I have to say that it feels a lot safer than the old T12 that had us (motorcycles) sliding both tires toward that wall at speed.

    No doubt. During the first few laps of practice at Road Atlanta, I always have to point my head down the front straight as soon as I tip into 12 - All the padding and airfence in the world doesn’t change how the point of that wall is the perfect ending point of the “oops, I lost the front at the apex” line.
