Easy to hate on 20 year old punk, but reality is father is to blame.

Foisting this much wealth and material goods on a kid never turns out well.  Zero regard for money and what it means to have to earn it.

My guess is the son has been a spoiled twat from day 1.














Slightly off topic.. :)

Where did you get that clip of the bike rider.. :o
Is there a whole video.

I believe it is footage from a WSBK race in early 2000s year old or maybe late 90s.  I think I found it through a random Google search for motorcycle gifs when I created a GB account in '04.

Aside from Haga, Edwards, Fogarty and Russell I never got as heavy into WSBK as I did Grand Prix/MotoGP.

It is Gary McCoy. You can find videos of him on YouTube.

He raced in 250 and 500 GPs and WSBK.

Thank you Bike nut & Ape907.

At first looking I thought he was riding a 2stroke.
It's the tyre smoking as he drifts around the corner.
Great riding.

McCoy had a background in Speedway racing and excelled at throttle control and spinning the rear through a corner. His style lead to some great discoveries in heat cycling and tire wear. The tire engineers determined that he was really affecting the life of the tire that much by doing as much spinning as he did.

If you watch the movie "Faster"'there is a good segment on him.
