They have no respect for the DY, they will be dead soon unfortunately [&o]

They were sliding the hell out of there bikes and can ride for sure but not riding smart at all.

^ No joke. Plus warped rotors, streched chains, etc....

It is cool to be able to hold and maintain a controlled slide, or drift. Of all the times I have tried, I was only able to pull one good one off. It felt awesome!!! lol

BTW previously stated "going 100 into a turn and slamming your brakes so u go 25 around the turn doesn't mean your a good rider"

Actually it is part of it and racing consist of exactly that, maybe not the exact amount of speed as quoted above but being able to ride in as fast and hard as possible and then being able to brake and select the proper gear to get through the corner as fast as possible is good riding.

I am in no way condoning the foo's in the video at all very irresponsible riding.
