I WISH it was Monza... unfortunately the "Parabolica" was closed in the 1960's for "safety concerns"
(the cars would lap around the track faster than the tires could grip...)

Anyway, this guy's going the wrong way 'round for Monza, which is strictly clockwise Wink

The properties tab says the photo shows a famous pilot by the name of "serowbot"- any relation ?

Pescatori,.. you're way too good...
Right as usual... I'm not sure where the bike photo is...
Here's Monza... has a very similar look... Wink

...

PS.. I thought I recognized it from GPL racing sim,... sometimes I cheat and ride the tracks backwards... forgot it was clockwise track...
America is mostly is counter clockwise... Europe seems to have most tracks running clockwise...
Suzuka in Japan,.. goes both ways... Huh

Serow, All I could think of was "Germany". Iirc an article in Cycle World was talking about testing mcs for durability at wide open throttle on this track. I think most of, or a good part of, this track is like this or flat. I give my Cycle Worlds away to a young lady who started riding last year on dirt, so I can't look it up. Does a Savage even go fast enough to stick on that track? Thanks. Good pic.
