@cdiaz55 or Gary Nixon did it with that kind of natural grace style and talent, may he R.I.P.....too bad Mark had to make the papers the way he did in practice for the 1972 Daytona 200, first time and last time he carried the Number 1 plate and THE most awesome picture scary wise in racing if u were to ask me. Tough guy tough he didn't die
@FahQBB Cool to hear from you, sounds like you had fun! Was wondering if you ever raced against any of the Spence guys? They are my family and raced alot in the expert class in California. Duane, Dennis, or Steve are their names.
@the1spen CLOSE? I had my little fingernail taken off at cycleland in chico one night, by a racer puttin a wheeel in on me. Classy intimidation. Many times rubber wore onto your leathers from being pushed by the competition. Some would reach over as they pass on the outside in a corner and shift u down a gear too.Or in a TT grab your front brake. Or put their hand on your # plate as u try to pass with the draft, and hold ya back lol.Ahh lessons of closeness .Yes sir ....ya learn to get gone.
@grampakampa yer right gramp, mike kidd was #72 then, ricky was #41 and number #1 was a hondawith a crew of riders on it, bubba, ricky, mike, hocking too, poovey....nice try akita but eeeh u lose.
aCTUALLY BULL DOG U DO GET 1 BRAKING DEVICE NOW. MOST PUT A DISC ON THE REAR. I PUT MINE ON THE FRONT TILL THEY SPECIFIED U CAN'T PUT IT ON THE FRONT . WHY? CUZ I WAS KILLIN EM.BUT BEFORE 1972 THEY HAD NO BRAKES AT ALL.3 ABREST INTO TURN 3 ON A MILE WAS HAIRY AS FUN GETS.hADDA HAVE BALLS THE SIZE OF CAULDRINS AND OF THE SAME CAST IRON.140MPH AND NOBODY COULD BE SCAREED N JAM ON THE BINDERS IN FRONT OF YA.LOTTA SLUGS WENT THRU THE FENCE.
For sure, it just depends on the length of the track! In my opinion, FTR is the best, most action-packed, thrilling racing in the world. Love it! Can't wait for the 2010 season!
