Yeah - I can't imagine having to set up the suspensions on those bikes: 180 - 200mph on the fast sections, jumps, bumps at all speeds - it's just F*&KN NUTS!!!!!! - One of my favorite shots with the the IOM TT slow mo's is watching how much the suspension is working and then seeing what happens when they jump and the rear has to figure out how to get traction and the suspension has to be dialed in not to high side. . .Watching MotoGP in slow mo and the suspensions don't even really move the tracks are so smooth. . .that and you KNOW these guys don't want to wheelie or jump at 160+ - they just can't beat the physics - without a doubt, big brass ones. What really F*&KS me up and that a lot of the guys run the race in MULTIPLE CLASSES, it's one thing to tempt fate, its another thing to spit in her face, call her a *****, and then, for good measure. . .**** on her leg. . .

Craig-Thanks for the vid. That is an awesome race. Those drivers are the equiv.of F1 drivers. Off the planet reaction reflexes, no fear and God given natural abilities. Heading down to Barber Motorspeedway in two weeks for the Honda Indy race. Barber spent a long time getting that track just perfect for the motorcycle races. Perfect smooth road. That what makes the Isle race so insane is those guys are tracking at that speed on uneven ground.
Would love to spectate it once !!!
BTW, your Mustang sounded great the other night after dinner. Heard it for about 2 miles !!!

Thanks brotha I was going to back down the hill and blow the tires infront of the entrance for you guys but when I looked back there, I did not see you anymore, so I scratched that idea

I cant wait to get the video, thanks for sharing that info Denroll. I told my little boy last night about the dvd, and he said where is it, I told him that it would be here on Thursday, so the poor little bugger burst into tears

but the s4 def a faster than my e55 with longtubes and EC tune. as its prob at about +50hp more and 800lbs less weight.

at any speed less then 60 mph it blows the doors off my e55 due to the traction differences. I can floor it in the s4 anytime pretty much without much problems while with the E55 annoy MR. blinky comes on ---> lol
The B5 S4 is a crazy car, one of my favorite sleepers. In fact it could be the best sleeper I mean AWD and Twin Turbo I've seen 800hp B5 RS4s and they do not mess around How is the response on your S4, I know turbo lag is inevitable but how is it?
