sounds a bid dodge to me. the F1 was doing an awful lot of wheel spin… with its supercomputer traction control :stuck_out_tongue:

The fighter jet looked to be rolling along the runway for longer than needed to imo

It takes a surprising long time to spool up a jet engine from idle

So can we now out to bed the debate over the best bike manufacturer?

Kwaka rules :slight_smile:

To be fair you only have to look at the type of owner to tell they are a more sophisticated, discerning and indeed, better looking bunch.
