How about this idea? Wanna do wheelies on the cooldown lap? OK fine. IF ya crash it doing it, the cornerworkers can claim your bike and raffle it off for new corner equipment and you have to pick yourself up off the track injured or not.

Hell NO!

You'll crack your frame!

Plus, stunters have no real skillz, just a bunch of ex-skateboard wannabes giving a black eye to the sport real roadracers love.

Oh, Rossi this and Rossi that, word is he hates stunts but has to do them on the warmdown due to a cluase in his contract with Honda.  That way Honda can sell more frames.

What's the point anyway? SO you can say to yourself "Everyone's looking at me! I am soooo special!"
Leave the stunts off the track.

And no, I don't know how to do a wheelie and don't care to learn.

Just my $.02

So you're saying after I win a race (in theory..lol) and I bust a high chair (candy-bar wheelie) or a stand up waving to the crowd or even a christ over the finish line...lmao I don't have any skills???hmmm ;)  
Railing ZX6 and speedballer are right...not many racers can wheelie(and most don't care too uhh yeah) But I think it'll be entertaining for the fans.   Plus I don't want it to be a *train wreck* like a XSBA event just a little fun for some of the racers who care to have some fun and the fans LOVE wheelies!!!!I'm all about it!!

I'm a fan of motorcycle racing and I love it when racers come out of a turn smoking up the rear wheel with a sideways crossed up wheelie. That beats a stand up wheelie any day!  ;)

So what if I smoke up the rear tire leaving the last turn onto the front straight (crossed  ;)) into a stand- up waving at YOU....

LMFAO!!!!! :P :P ;D ;D :P :P
I can already see where this thread is going.....lol

But you have to be sliding side ways when the front wheel comes up.  ;D But if you do that coming to the front straight... you can bet that I'll get a kick out of it! I love all motorcycle stunts and stuff.  ;)

I got fined for my last wheelie...  (still accepting donations paypal=jeff@cbr600f4.com subj=wheelie fine fund  ;D)

I guess I won't be doing anymore...

The fine worked for me.  Like I say at the riders meetings...  Fine 'em and if that don't work, kick 'em in the nuts  :o

Wheelies rule.  I'm down  :D

If DanO's R6 makes enough hp to do a crossed-up wheelie while spinning the tire... I'm protesting   ;)   :D

Actually, they'll already be looking at me, thinking I'm special, so a wheelie will just be an added bonus  ;)  Plus the crowd digs it  :D

QuoteLeave the stunts off the track.

Funny.  The last time I got pulled over, the cop told me to take it TO the track....

A wheelie is just another form of practicing balance and throttle control... plus they're fun.  You should try one sometime.  I used to be anti-wheelie - then I did one.  Hooked ever since  :)
