Engine

If you like racing to the max of your engine you maybe better riding TT's, as road racing is about conserving as much of that engine possible till it matters, to win! By this i don't mean you sit at the back and watch the race go up the road, as you have to be in the race to win it, but when you are in the race you learn to ride at 80% of your engine, saving that extra 20% to win the race. Some guy's with a big engine just feel the need to ride to 100% of their engine, guy's with a smaller engine learn to conserve that engine, but don't get me wrong we all need a big engine but it's how we use that engine that matters. There have been riders out there with a world beating engine, but get them in a race they don't know how to use it and waste it.
