    hit a tree at 100mph you will still almost certainly die.

    PS Joey died racing a 125 on a track.

    I thought he hit a tree in somewhere like Romania?

    was it the other Dunlop that died like that then?

    ps the point is take some top speed off and you might be in a bit.more control and a mistake isn't instant death that's all.

    there has to be a limit.


    like i actually know a lad over in Germany who builds hyabusas. he's put 450bhp into the things. it's utter lunacy but it's chasing the ultimate
    thetes a video of a bike he sold to this guy who took it onto autobahn 15mins after buying it and he hit 400 kmph on speedo

    he wasn't satisfied as back tyre was spinning so he put for on clock.



    some.lads need protecting from themselves

    Good discussion lads, only brought into the thread to get comments from both sides, you my fellow Reds are a mixed bunch and it's good to see you put your valid points across.

    <ok>

    taken from bbc feed


    Federer, 36, won 6-0 7-5 6-4 against the 22nd seed on Centre Court, and has now won 32 consecutive sets at SW19.

    He will play South African eighth seed Kevin Anderson or France's Gael Monfils in the last eight on Wednesday.

    The top seed is bidding for a joint record ninth singles title to draw level with Martina Navratilova.

    Federer served out the match with an ace out wide, winning in one hour and 45 minutes.

    The Swiss is two sets short of his all-time record streak, which he set between the third round in 2005 and the final in 2006.


    Its 12 years on from when a dominant federer set this record of consecutive sets won.

    it is utterly utterly astounding a 36 year old can do these things.

    They only sell Stella at Wimbledon though so you and Rhc would tank in the doubles without your Carling and Peroni PEDS

    Federer is just remarkable, and is universally liked by everyone that enjoys tennis.

    Kinda boring though. I mean there is no unpredictability, he's going to win and win fairly comfortably

    In terms of the Womens, I hope either Giorgi or Ciblkova win. Giorgi cause shes hot and Ciblkova cause it'd be middle finger to the fact she missed out on being seeded because of Williams.

    Ostapenko will despatch Cibulkova soundly

    Williams will do the same with Giorgi

    Disagree !! There are (maybe small) legions of hardcore Nadal fans who cannot stand Federer for obvious reasons. Whether they enjoy tennis, or Nadal, is the question
