I see videos of spectators getting hit all the time. Most of the time the driver just continues the race. What ever happens in the aftermath of these occurances?

For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. The chute is deployed by means of a spring that pushes the drone chute away from the car. Since the spring pushes against the car, could this exert enough force to move the car forward just enough to record the win? I saw a race two weeks ago that was so close! When they showed the photo finish, the car that won had just deployed the chute and the other car had not deployed the chute yet. In a game of micro seconds (RT, ET, etc.) does this come into play?

Are they trying to overcompensate for being short by racing in a manly and dangerous sport?

Well what do you know? Montoya came over here, and beat everybody on a road course. So i guess last year when they said nascar had the best drivers in the world, they were wrong. And the funny thing is, Montoya was not even close to being the best in formula1. He was having a terrible season in F1 last year, and opted out of his contract. He could have gone back to the IRL, or champcar. But, instead he chose Nascar. you know why? $$$ ! Nascar is over-paying those drivers like crazy. They certainly are not the best drivers, and yet are only second in salary to F1. Thats because these sponsors will shell out the big bucks, because they know most of us americans are watching this garbage. Americans love the crashes, the fights, and all the rest of the circus acts that make up Nascar. Because of this money, it is taking some good talent out of REAL series like IRL, and champ car. I dont get it america...what is so great about a bunch of heavy, slow cars going around ovals 500 times?

From NASCAR to local events, do auto sporting events put a drain on oil supply demands to the point that it affects consumers?

Seriously if you think nascar is better than F1, you must be retarded. I even hear on the nascar telecasts they say "the fastest drivers in the world." HA! Nascar drivers are not even close to being as good as IRL/champ car drivers. It is an insult to even compare the best nascar driver to the worst F1 driver. It just goes to show you, ameicans really are brain dead when it comes to auto racing. I myself am american, and it really sucks that this country is obsessed with the wrong racing series. First of all most americans that say they like nascar just watch it for the crashes. They are just plain idiots. Second, the others that like nascar just like the oval racing. Oval racing is very boring, and requires not much skill. I like when they go to the road courses, and guys like Boris Said come in there with inferior equipment, and beat all of the so called fastest drivers in the world. That will tell you something right there. Wake up america, Nascar is a joke. It is the WWF of racing

Hi,
The bike is 2nd hand, and its an older model I think about 2001. It has a kickstart with a lever on the left handle bar, however Im not sure what Im meant to do ie do I press this lever in whilst attempting to kick start? Or press it in once just before commencing to kick start it? So far nothing I have tried works. Im assuming the bike's meant to be in neutral. Anyhelp would be much appreciated.

Additional Details

Thanks for the answer, but im not talking about the clutch. The Ktm's are electric start, and also have a kick start for flat batteries. To use the kick start there is a little lever-near the clutch-that somehow allows you to kick start the bike...not sure how though??
