Gretzky?
Is he like the Gary Ablett of Ice Hockey? All kidding aside I have at least heard of him even tho I dont follow the sport....so he must be good.
I cant see him beating Rossi on the Duc though
Dude I have never layed claim to knowing how to fix all of MGP's current ills....and ad hominem argumentum does not sit well with me so answer the question and dont attack me as if I have zero credibility on this point and have been inconsistent in all of my previous posts.
As I have already stated (which you conveniently ignored) show me a single post I have made where I have ever stated the rules should be changed to produce closer racing in THIS particular prototype racing series because I am "bored" with who is winning. If you can I will admit you are right...if not STFU

You really need to follow speedway Jum.
MGP has never been about "close racing". Its prototype racing, where they are constantly trying to find an advantage over the other bikes/rider combo. You need a homologated series like say the Pee Wee cup. where all the bikes are produced the same ......... result ....... is generally pretty bike independent.
Expecting close racing, and indeed whining about it, from a series not designed to give "close racing" is just banging your head against a brick wall.
It also stuns me that so many claim to be fans of "close racing" ......... in any race I ever entered, it was never a goal "lets all go out there and swap position right up till the end of the race!!" what an absolutely idiotic proposition. In reality I guess it shows the predominance of fans these days who have absolutely no empathy for the riders/racers at all. HTF can you ever appreciate racing if you have absolutely no idea of what each rider/racer is attempting to do!?
Close racing ........ pffft ..... get real ! Buy a slot car set and have the cars linked to lap around side by side if thats how you get your kicks.
Unlike you, I don't march in lock step with the puppet masters that tell you what to accept. Yes, of course, any system that needs improvement is fair game to examine and critic. Are you still stuck on Manifest Destiny my friend?
Its simple, the current formula has been described by rider and expert as one that requires the racer to negotiate wheels in line making overtaking rather a rare occurrence producing "typical" processional racing. The previous formula allowed for riders to slide and power through a bit more and square up the turns, allowing for various lines, in the final year of development resulting in significantly more passing. Two different formulas, both created by men. Why do you suppose a topic of interest has been this issue of electronics in recent years? Newsflash, because its made the racing "typical" (some might even go so far as to describe it as a snooze fest). Interestingly enough, neither you nor those arguing that the racing isn't "boring" have been unwilling to challenge Kropo in his previous description. So you make processional threads, back to back, to dispense the idea that if anything is described as "boring" that person must have the problem. So, yeah, I guess watching the grass grow is not boring to a botanist, whoopee you are a genius.
