Supersport regs stipulate treaded tyres. That means things like the Bridgestone BT-002, Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa, Michelin Pilot Power... all these tyres have more grip than the slicks Christian Sarron used to get elbow-down on his GP bike back in the 80's...javaman wrote:Farken hell!! Is that a road tyre too ?
Agreeing or disagreing will never change the fact that he does scrape his elbow at Southern ocassionally, Siberia everytime, and Lukey Heights without fail. Get down to the track and watch him one day, and your opinion may change!I-K wrote:Supersport regs stipulate treaded tyres.

FWIW, I agree with people saying that while that's a pretty spectacular shot, there's no elbow down happening there.

Yeah maybe your right, maybe they caught him on the slow down lap!I-K wrote:Strika wrote:Agreeing or disagreing will never change the fact that he does scrape his elbow at Southern ocassionally, Siberia everytime, and Lukey Heights without fail.I-K wrote:FWIW, I agree with people saying that while that's a pretty spectacular shot, there's no elbow down happening there.
...and pointing out where he *does* get elbow-down on a regular basis will never change the fact that he's *not* doing it in that photo.
