Yeah, I would actually love to get out on a track and race with a bunch of people like that, but racing is an expensive hobby until you get sponsors and I don't know that I'd ever be fast enough to do well at 6'5" 220lbs. 70 extra pounds has got to kill your lap times. This was just a satirical mirror of the why I don't stunt thread. You could put up a clip of a bunch of car crashes and say "Why I don't drive"... and you would probably be considered a pussy.

Sometimes... just like the divide between sit-down and stand-up jetski riders. Personally I like both, and so do a lot of people, but the divide is there.

I don't notice a divide.....I do both....Race/Stunt. I do not think I am the exception either...You would actually be suprised at how many stunters race and stunt.

Okay but what's your definition of stunting? I only consider someone a stunter if they can do things like circle doughnuts, tank wheelies, one-footed wheelies, slow wheelies and 12 o'clocks, huge rolling stoppies, etc.

Well with the exception of circle wheelies, I got you covered bro! And BTW a tank wheelie is called a spreader. Edit: Ahh you said circle doughnuts so I am guessing you mean circle burnouts.....Childs Play.......Yep guess I can call myself a stunter by your definition.

I've done my fair share of both. There does seem to be two seperate cultures. When the guys I have stunted with see track pics, the all say, "I didn't know you could ride like that". Amazingly, the guys I hit the track with say the same thing when I crack a nice long, rear peg stand up and submit the finger for approval. Having been on both sides of the coin, I think that once you learn how o control the bike, both can be a lot of fun.
