    Of course, and they both did the right thing by going to the outside. The only problem is that going to the outside meant 4-wide. Nurburgring was not meant for 4-wide lol. They're lucky there wasn't a collision.

    It may be a race track but common sense, there are slower moving vehicles sharing the track. Just because its a track doesn't mean they have to drive as fast as possible and have near to 0 reaction time, these guys are lucky as fuck that they didn't have a pile up.

    The reason the traffic ahead of them was going so slow is because there was a yellow flag. When you have cars going full speed around corners meeting cars going 30mph, it doesn't usually end well. They all did pretty god with the situation they faced, if you ask me.

    Woo my bike is now running! Had to clean the carbs, fuel filter replaced and clean the lines out. New CDI and it fires up. Needs new plugs and wires bad though.

    Is 93 high octane for US then? Standard is 95 here with high octane being 97 and some places even offering 99

    This may be one factor in why our gas is so fucking cheap compared to yours.

    (Lowest is either 87 or 89 FYI.)

    Going from the price difference between 95, 97 and 99 on UK prices and working back to 87/89, you still have somewhere about £1.10 per litre which I think is still over double.

    meh, it's around 1.45-1.5€ here.

    Oh, I also found octanes don't have a standard measure. 89 octanes in the US is not 89 octanes in Europe. Higher octanes equals more refined and better chemical treatment.

    87 octanes USA = ~ 92 octanes Europe
    89 octanes USA = ~ 94 octanes Europe
    91 octanes USA = ~ 96 octanes Europe
    95 octanes USA = ~ 100 octanes Europe

    Yes... but considering the normal price for five mousepads would be $30 and then more shipping...

    I wasn't trying to reference Kurtjmac, but I did. I watch him too much I guess. I've started subconsciously speaking like him lol.
