Yeamabu's question, AndyB learns Physics, Skurge learns Probability

you should take into consideration trust and knowledge of a persons skill etc…

If I had a motorcycle again, and I let one of my friends ride it. That doesn’t mean anyone can ride it… I only trust certain people and know how skilled they are.

lol. they let baseball players on the baseball field during a game. Try running out there next bison’s game and see how that works out for you…

i totally agree, obviously the people involved in this stunt held the skill of these people a bit high, from the timing of it(which could have caused some serious issues) to the skill of the biker(crashing)

how does a baseball game with players have anything to do with cars on a track? was the bike rider a drifter? was his bike just camouflaged to look like a bike? was it really a car?

no not at all. but you have what appears to be a very good bike stunt person(whatever you call them BMX?) and what seemed to be a semi - pro/pro drift racer (is that how you say it lol). You have a pretty solid setup.

edit: is this the same kid who jumped the burnout?

edit2: Keep in mind i didn’t see the bike jump antics… so I really shouldn’t speak about it lol.

jumping a wooden ramp onto pavement doesn’t require much skill if you’ve ever ridden/jumped a bike, i ride a mountainbike 24+ miles every weekend through some of the toughest trails around here(holiday valley) and jump everything in sight. i’ve been riding for about 23ish years. i wouldn’t consider myself a good stunt person, but shit, i can go off a normal jump over and over again and not crash like that.

Well you reinforced my argument. Thank you

i’m not sure what you are trying to say? its easy yes, he still crashed yes. obviously he’s not that good of a rider

My understanding is that he had slick like tires. If he was your friend it would be easy to trust him with a stunt that “easy”.

Basically its down to, people have their panties in a bunch because Onyx is so mean and wouldn’t let me do whatever I wanted… but then trusted other people he knows better to do things that are NOT similar to what I wanted to do at all…

This is seriously still going? Jesus…

lol, you do realize that the current 3 NYSpeed mods were mods before we owned the forum and were chosen by Howie right? And that I had never even met cougarspeed before becoming admin?

Shesh, I supposed the 3 people who put their personal time & money into this site and it’s events shouldn’t be friends or admin either.

That’s cool. But you’re not running this forum. And you’re not even showing up to events like this yet continue to criticize something you were not part of. Maybe you’ve spent too much time on the internet.

:tup: x45230343535!

If anyone at all here really cared about the good of NYSpeed they would stop posting in this thread. Is anyone else tired of this shit?

Why does shit like this perpetuate forever when there are a lot of car related threads or lighthearted off-topic threads that get no replies?

Ok, so you are saying these are people that do this on a regular. Well I take photos of dirt bikes on a track racing with over 20 people on the track at a time, right in the beginning taking a turn I’m standing at all at once. I do snowboarding where I stand right in the middle of 2 rails and have the opportunity of being hit. Ive done hockey with a chance of being hit by a hockey puck. lol

Id say I’m use to dealing with things like this then. And have had a lot more close calls with dirt bikes than what could have happened at this event.

Ban?

Down to set up newmans crazy winch and I’ll jump A drift car on my snowboard this winter. But we have to plan/practice this…

Or

Lets set a jump up on the 33 and I’ll jump MANY cars that have no clue I’m out there.

I’m sorry, ban for what? This is off topic. I havent done anything to get banned. good try though.

Did you just compare getting hit by a dirt bike as snowboarder or a hockey puck with a car going over 60mph?

Wow.

Also how can you speculate that there wouldn’t have been close calls at this event? Were you in the stands?

This is true.

It was a joke… was the bike rider a pro, does he jump drifting cars an a regular basis? Does the drift car compete in Pro division Drift races.

A girl can hope.

GG I’m done with this one, you really just don’t want to understand where everyone else is coming from. Which is fine. Ill STFU now.
