Really?? I got the impression it was? So, this is just like a general, "car enthusiast" site?

Drag racing isn't very big at all over here. I watch our version of your top fuel (think its slightly smaller cc, not as much nitrous, about 1500bhp, 250mph 1/4 etc...) We're not into all this hardcore, complete strip, fat tyres on front etc.. Our life is turn up, thrash the cars, go home (in the same car)..

Motor cycle racing like Superbikes, MotoGP, F1 (although getting boring), Touring cars, caterham, Clio cups, F3 etc are all in favour here. I did see when the Indycars came over to Rockingham for the first time though, jeesssus though things fly!!!!!

Motorsport is quite big over here. WE can see 100,000 people at a WSB event.

Man, I would think jumping on the curb on the inside would be counter productive. It would just put excess load on the outside tires. Now I have heard of people using the outside curb like a bank on exits. But I'm no pro.

Corners coming into Club.
