RE: Should bikes race in the wet ?
like i said ian, there's wet and there's over the top wet. which was it? if people don't want to race in the wet it's up to them, but don't ban it. if every race in the british isles was not run because of rain we'd hardly see a damned race. rain is a great leveller. look at nigel davies a few years ago [till the race was stopped]' look at chris walker from last place in holland winning a wsbk race. ditto tom sykes last weekend. i'm sure joey would have an opinion about wet weather racing as well as a lot of the irish lads. if it's wet to the point of running water across the roads, then yes, delay or run it some other time, but banning it? no. i already gave it a go, but due to finances and a very unreliable trident engine that tried to blow up every ten minutes, i gave up. mind you it did a whole race meeting at mallory on a thimble full of corn oil one time - but it was wet, so it kept the revs down. personally i wouldn't drink stale beer, but there again we're all entitled to our opinion aren't we?

ACU? why not add "nt" to the end, you'll get the idea!
