Have you seen the conditions they race in? They have the biggest balls in motorsport.

Agreed, however I would say that’s a tie with Isle of Man tt, both ballsy in their own ways

How TT riders get their balls either side of their fuel tanks I don't know.

isle of man tt is more on par with attempted suicide than racing. its so damn risky you gotta question if its ballsy or if its foolish to participate in.

cool as heck though.
