Wow these guys are so fast, I'd love to see Meo vs. some GNCC guys. This one is great too, just wish it was a Husky tiddler. Marc Germain on YZ 125 http://www.enduro-abc.com/index.php?action=view_object&model=news&object_id=110
wow ... That was one gnarly looking track to me ...The video looks like his head is going at the bars all the time but the shot at the end shows him sitting up right on the bike as expected ... Nothing on the track phases these guys ... ruts are just flat ground apparently to them ... Rocks are nothing ... So these guys ride the track on Saturday and race it on Sunday?
Marc Germain vid is the Friday Night Super Test. Two riders race head to head on parallel courses. You can see the other track to his right and then that tall bridge is the crossover. At some events this will become the Extreme Test for Saturday and Sunday. Saturday and Sunday they race the same course in two seperate points paying events. It consists of an Enduro Test, Extreme test and Motocross Test with transfer trail, run for three laps. I'm not sure, but I think the first lap on Saturday is untimed.
Meo is doing quicker times than David Knight so he'd be a few steps ahead of GNCC guys I think aussie team Husky rider - Chris Hollis from the Goldcoast is roughly on par with Strang and he comes just outside top ten Mind you its more intense riding in short bursts with trail sections between . Strang is more of a long distance runner
do you remember what Meo did on a WR144 at the 2008 Australian 4 day - came second overall to Chris Hollis on a WR 450 if he didnt crash three time on first day due to poor tyre choice he would have won he was 15th ?after day 1
That special, is a very open outdoor MX style course, now imagine AC222 (or Dungey) who is at a whole 'nother level MX than Meo (and Meo was a GP MX guy) hitting that track. Just for info about speed levels. Not to wind everyone up. As for the WEC crowd Meo is always on the tip of the spear for speed, he flat rips and always looks to having fun doing it !!
