The Peoria Jump

[AUSpranks]

LOL THAT JUMP ISNT BIG.... YOU DONT FLY 120 - 130 FT AHAaha dick head commentator.

[RacerDude96]

@AUSpranks Youre retarded.. The jump is way bigger than this picture portrays.

[mahagga]

@AUSpranks yes you do,they used to have line markers on the hill,I  have been to every one since the seventies,sounds like you have never been there.When you get close to the hill you get a better perspective on how much length and air they get.

[AUSpranks]

@mahagga Yeah I see it now, sorry for being such a douch before haha

[mahagga]

@AUSpranks there has been some helacious crashes there too,lots of borken arms,legs,and stuff.You go too hot over it and you miss the snake like turn and you will end up flying into a little creek.It's ugly,believe me,lol

[BonerAire]

i cant wait to race this tthing

[mahagga]

@BonerAire you really gonna come out and race this year at the TT?

[MrMadkaw400]

its true that is my home town and been there and seen it with my own eyes

[RORYzRIGHT]

130 feet ok what ever you say!  t

[mahagga]

@RORYzRIGHT it's true,in person it is amazing

[a917fan]

To all of the dumbshits who say this is flat track, this isn't flat track. This is Tourist Trophey. I remember when real men use to do this on 750 twin cylinder built for TT only motorcycles. Not motocross bikes with lowered suspension and 19 inch rims. I'm sure Chris Carr remembers it, too.

[ErikjStudios]

@a917fan BEST COMMENT EVER!

[mahagga]

@a917fan I liked it best with the framer Rotax's,600 lightweight bikes,likethey did in the 80'sand 90's.I agree ,this motorcross bike stuff is a far cry from those days,i still like it a lot,but it has gotten to where they cater to a different crowd now.

[Struck117]

[Zeeteze]

[MrMikehoncho44]

@austinahole Love your enthusiasm, but this in not flattrack. This is a TT, which stands for Tourist Trophy. It's part of the AMA Grand National Championship Series, which includes short track, half-mile, mile, and TT races.

[mahagga]

@MrMikehoncho44 flattrack,when it was really good,was a series of disciplines like TT,road race,mile,half-mile ,short track.

[mahagga]

@MrMikehoncho44 not that it still isn't the greatest sport on earth to watch in person

[mahagga]

@austinahole morehead,chaz is the incomparable Scottie Parkers nephew or something right?Scott was and is a class act,enjoyed watching his greatness for many years.
