Ghost Rider aint got shit on this guy

This is what is scary about it to me...Racing on track means concentrating on hitting your marks exactly to the centimeter lap after lap. Racing on this open roads course, no difference. Passing however means getting out of your normal racing line and being off your marks, so lapping that course and racing that course become to very different things.

Then add that those roads are OPEN to traffic all day before and after the race so any old cage or truck (lorrie over there) can leak oil, antifreeze, throw out a gum wrapper and it might not get picked up by the corner workers/track sweepers.

Then add the fact that your racing and anything can happen. Joey Dunlops brother died when the bike in front of him seized up causing a no fault crash in which, even though he was just happened to be in the wrong spot, he was killed!
