Yeah, why have they gone with the tarmac burns on the modern track, never in my day :LolLolLolLol:
Have lost it myself on the tarmac :knuppel2:, just not enough grip and if you get a couple of stones under the tyre forget it, your off. Make's it more difficult to overtake me thinks :-\
Felt gutted for the girl though, just not had any luck all week. I think the expectation has got to her a little bit, hope she carries on though :)

I was just going to say, 'I don't remember tarmac burns BITD'
Is this the latest thing for all new tracks? :-\

Lost the final by riding too high in first burn. Without either of those she would have the Gold.

Not really clued up on this, but who is her coach & what has he won?
Did D Holmes have a coach in 96 telling him to take the inside line on Stumpy at the final corner?
She's a young girl who's just learned a very hard lesson, but as a racer she will store all she has learned and kick some serious ass in the future :2gunsfiring_v1:
Shanaze seems to have a very focused winning mentality, good on her. :Great_Britain:

Sarah Walker did have a very cute smile :smitten:
Shanaze was very fast in the third moto - faster than the winning race too = it was a shame but her time will come - she's still world champion - well done to her for getting there in the first place :4_17_5:
Lil Gashead:
she did well on everything apart from the berms! :'(
well at least she was riding a redline!! :LolLolLolLol:
cheeeeeeeeers
