The Best Drag Racing Podcasts

The Best Drag Racing Podcasts – I’m not sure I ever thought I’d say this, especially in a public forum, but what the hell was I missing when it wasn’t a prep race?

I had a bad taste in my mouth for years that I didn’t have any prep races. Thinking it was stupid, childish, unimportant and just about every other negative adjective you could think of to describe that slice of pie in our sport. Well, I was proven wrong, at least in certain aspects.

Over the last year, many people have told me that I must not give any preparatory race a chance. They told me it would be fun and that I would actually enjoy it.

How To Choose The Right Tires For Drag Racing

Posted in

How To Choose The Right Tires For Drag Racing – The tire temperature on the track should usually be about 20 degrees cooler than the track temperature. “Burn longer on colder days,” advises our source at Mickey Thompson Performance Tires & Wheels. “On hotter days, just smoke a little and brush them off. The shorter the burn-in, the less the rubber will wear, so the tires will last longer.” Photo by Evan Smith/Mickey Thompson Tires & Wheels.

Fairing vs. Radial is often the first decision for these racers, but there are additional factors to consider before they burn that rubber on the drag strip.

The Fitness Regime Of Motogp Riders

Posted in

The Fitness Regime Of Motogp Riders – Andrea Dovizioso is a smart driver. His talent was discovered at a very young age by Aprilia, where he excelled in Italian championship wins and speed. He made his MotoGP debut at 15 and won the 125cc world championship with Honda at 18. Although his best win came with a Ducati at the Italian Grand Prix at Mugello, the bike he has battled with Marco Marquez’s Honda in recent years. Still, a winner from the start

But what made a champion of this level, who was in the prime of his life, stay at the top for so many years? Consistency, dedication and hard work. Also – and most importantly – his training is done in the winter months, when the season has not yet started, and if you choose the right day, even during the season, so as not to overtax the … Read the rest

Training Tips For Aspiring Motocross Champions – Advanced enduro and hard enduro riding takes energy and dedication, it doesn’t just happen, so this is how Megs and I approach upping our game, and it ultimately boils down to dedicated training. I’ve written this following our live chat on the topic – you can watch it here:

Technology In Motogp – If you’ve paid even a cursory attention to MotoGP over the past few years, you’ve noticed something of an aerodynamic revolution going on for motorcycles.

And some of that work is trickling down to road bikes, with virtually all of the latest superbikes having fenders, and now the focus is on other areas where progress needs to be made. New Yamaha patents show that they are focusing on forks and ways to improve airflow around them.
