that's a bit over the top <pun intended> :laughing

Normally I'm for hair-ball but it would seem they need slowing just before it <chicane or whatever> as the jumps are getting a bit overly dangerous?

<can't believe I said that.....> Typically I'm for the more hair-ball riding no matter where it is; but those guys have to hold up a bit to keep the jump from being too big....woah! :wow

So I'm guessing that turn wasn't disighned that way? Guessing the development and power of these new liter bikes is to thank,can a 600 do this? Shits crazy...I'd try it ,dont think I'm fast enough though

They don't look to be going any faster than maybe 70-80mph. I would guess a 600 can do it too....

I think so; bike (& racecar) technology has surpassed track designs. Same happened at Le Mans & Lime Rock where racecars "took-off" flying over the guard rail & into the forest alongside track...

A lot of the tracks on the BSB circuit are pretty sketchy on today's monster superbikes. There's absolutely no way they would make a track like that today. That's one of the reasons BSB is so fun to watch.

Hell, we could do stuff like that here, just run the "car" version of the Cyclone at Thunderhill. Extra scary and at higher speed to boot.
