    I think those 85 year old should sign up for Andretti (81) experience and learn. Or learn for another 81 year old Jackie Stwert.

    I think at a certain age people should have to retake their driving test. If they pass then good for them. If not then no more driving.

    Of course there are probably a shit ton of non-senior drivers that shouldn?t have licenses either.

    The bikers comment about the car in front not speeding up. Come on guy, you're on a gixxer and didn't split lanes, to take the middle one??? Lightweight , i'd have no problem on the bagger.

    Were you "racing" with that GSXR? Did you have all 4 sparkplugs in the engine?

    I dunno. I rode a Honda RS125 at one time. I don't think if you actually rode one, you would make that statement.

    You mean 8 spark plugs. S65 Engines goes upto 8400rpm and it was closest to the GP2 engine at the time of production.

    BTW. I am not the one who driving e93 m3 nor riding gear.

    No. I meant did you take two plugs out of the GSXR.

    An e93 Ms should be around 4.5 0-60 and 13.2-13.5 quarter mile.

    Even a GSXR750G (think 1986) would run around an 11.2 quarter mile.

    The only thing I can think of is the GSXR had two plugs removed...

    I've been exploring other avenues, and you wouldn't figure it, but there are schools on a lot of avenues.

    So, I think going to the artery is the right thing to do, and I have been doing that recently.

    It's not a great solution, but it will do.
