watch as a few 10 year olds school guys twice their age

I meant just one 10 year old.

if a kid like this came by me and made me look like a chump, I'd either cut my balls off or sell my bike.

Yeah but the kid and the bike top out under 300lbs...he can smoke you thru the curves on that 150

Are you saying you could school him?
..... or are you saying it won't happen because you'll never grace the track at the same time?

that right there boys, is the next valentino rossi.

The kid is impressive but everyone else seems to be really slow. Looks like the first lap of the afternoon group slow.

awesome. sure, his combined bike+rider weight is low, but it's also only a 22hp setup. So the power to weight ratio is still rather low. This kid is really really good.

i watched the video again and started thinking about some of the comments throughout.

"he has been taught by Keith Code since he was 8 years old"
"he recieves no financial assistance"
-i'm sure mommy or daddy have been paying a fair amount for him to get trained, personally, by him!

and oddly enough i'm going to agree with ZX!!!! It really does look like the slowest group is out on the track. most of these guys aren't even attempting to hang off their bike and carry some speed around the turns!

Maybe, but Keith is an awesome human being and it wouldn't surprise me if he was helping him just because.

And my last track event with the CSS, there was a 14 year old kid on a 125 who DESTROYED me and just about every other adult on the track (except the coaches)...he may be competing in the Red Bull Rookie Cup in Italy next month.

noahfz1 · 08-27-2008, 12:32 PM

I'm saying if/when it happens. like if I was those guys in that video, and I couldn't at least keep up with that kid, I'd put my bike back in my truck.

or pray the video of him waxing me isn't on youtube.

and I guarantee those guys in that video are all giving it everything they've got. I've been to enough trackdays to know how the beginers ride.

Ten year old? what?
