anyone smell 2 stroke ?

[gus]

On my way to a national park & i was passing a race track where some fellas were practising. Only really got one good shot in as the dust was unbelievable & blowing into the track.

This guy was pretty cool to watch. Fairly heavily cropped.

There was a lot of mud & rocks way up in the air but i cropped them out to fit the bike in.

Thanks for the vote of confidence mate...something is going to happen soon. Just how far i go i dont know.Do i jump a puddle or do the 100' dive of death in front of thousands into 1 foot of water at the fairground. I was looking in the paper this morning & the flamin' TV i bought last year has already depreciated the exact value of a D20 :huh What was i thinking ??:cry

Actually mate....you dont have to answer that.

Pretty cool! Normally, I'd say you didn't leave him enough room. But the
rooster tail more than makes up for that! Very cool shot!

:clap Excellent shot, gusnado, especially since you have shutter lag. Great stuff.

Listen, you should give serious consideration to buying used. Virtually all my gear is used, even my bags, and you couldn't tell most of it from new. Save a lot of money. :evil

Since when do 4strokes burn 2stroke oil? :scratch

[landrum]

Excellent shot!

Who said he was the only one on the track :wink

[gus]

Excellent shot!
Ta landrum...ive always wanted to get a bike shot. I appraoched him when he came in & told him he could have it for free. He was pretty happy with that.

[gubbs]

Fantastic shot, I love the smell of 2-strokes. If they did a 2 stroke after shave, I'd buy it.

Last one...getting to the bottom of the barrel.


PS.. I recon it would be real easy to catch a huge endo. The closer you get with a camera...the crazier & faster they get.

Stop the boat! You have a TV that cost enough new that it can depreciate $1500 USD? I would have multiply the total cost of my TV by 3 1/2 to equal just your depreciation.

Forget all the look at used DSLRS adsvice! Do whatever you did to buy the Metro Golden Myer theater (TV), and get you a good DSLR and a hand full of lenses. :D

PS: The DSLR camera body's market price will drop very quickly, but the real value isn't what you paid for it or what you can sell it for. The value is in the joy it brings you with the increased ability to control and produce your unique vision of the world.

There is nothing like the smell of 2 stroke exhaust. It's one of those memory smells, brings me back to the days when I rode those bikes.

[ysr612]

Since when do 4strokes burn 2stroke oil? :scratchfirst thing that I thought too. Only I thought what is all the cams doing in that head.
