  • FAST & LEFT -A FLAT TRACK FILM

    6 - 34 minutes ... your thing!
    The arena is a dirt oval. The gladiators have a steel-shoe on their boot that keeps them and their motorcycles balanced at high speeds. Every weekend, they t...

    Very cool! Stoked to check it out!

    This is closer to riot s world than mine. We do race left in a flat dirt oval, but the bikes are different and those flat track guys have brakes... Wimps

    I want to try and race flat track soon. Looks awesome​​​​​​​

      Of course I’ve already seen this one. Pretty good too!

      We do have a ‘brakeless’ class for bikes from the 60s. Just sayin’

        Can they weigh 175lbs and make 80hp? If so, sign me up!!

        I'm just Fucking around, the whole "no brakes!" thing is more of a shocking statement or marketing tactic than it is an actual testimony on the skill and/or balls of the racers.

        Flat trackers have my full respect. Lots of speedway guys also race flat track, and we JUST put in a flat track track (is that how you would say that?) At the speedway track. Supposed to be done and racing this spring. I definitely plan on trying it.

        I'm 40 in three weeks. I'm not going to pretend thoughts of retirement from motorcycle racing are not in my head. I've just been racing two wheels for 30 years.. the thought of life without it is strange. But the thought of being still able to walk at 55 is in my head.

          Speaking of brakes on a flat track bike, it's fascinating to see the various set ups riders use on TT courses (where front brakes are allowed).

          This was from the Super TT in AZ a few years ago. Beringer, Brembo, radial mount, axial mount (not in these pics).

            That's nuts! And very cool.

            We also have a TT track. It incorporates the speedway track, sort of the parking lot, and runs all over the property.

            I have not seen it go off yet, but it looks absolutely awesome. Like a cross between flat track, road racing and motocross.

                  It was a good movie. Different than j figured it would be but good.

                  I keep saying someone could make a great YouTube series following our local track for a season.
