Slow Races

This is an interesting idea, anyone ever see this? First one to the end loses.

I am definitely going to have to try this one out.

It used to be a part of group rider training in the UK. It's as much clutch control as it is throttle control.
The secret is a nice low idle speed and letting the engine just pull you along with no throttle or gentle throttle control without stalling the engine. I've found it much easier on a single or twin cylinder bike.

hmmm, those riders seem to go pretty fast.
Most people who come from countries that have to do an exam/class had this as part of their training and they go waaaaay slower (and less sloppy) then those guys in the video are going.
