I think I'll pass. The stunters are the worst thing that ever happen to the sport. Far worse than Hell Angels. Because of stunters the States are passing draconian laws with huge fines, forfeitures and even felony prosecutions for even an accidental wheelie. We are at risk of horsepower limits and such because of the criminally irresponsible stunters.

KMA.

Or go race. Drag racing, dirt track, road race, motocross, whatever it takes to get these morons off the roads.

Hey welcome, welcome, welcome, thanks for coming in here and sharing. As you may beable to tell some here dont like the stunting. Myself, I like watching it, but would never attempt it. Is this event located in Florida?

In defense of Mr. Stuntwars - this looks like a competition taking place in a controlled environment. No more socially irresponsible than any race or other competition. There's plenty of racing that happens on the streets illegally, but track riding is considered responsible (by some, at least). I'm not one to do any stunt riding (well, I did a wheelie once) but I can appreciate the skill that some of the practiced riders have.

Now if this is used to promote those stupid street stunting groups, that's a different story.

I can't think of any place that they practice except on public roads.
