Stoppies and SBK2001?

Has anybody successfully been doing stoppies in SBK2001?
I think I've read somewhere that in an early beta it was possible.

Are there any file that could be tinkered with?

They're the opposite of a wheelie. A wheelie lifts the front wheel from too
much power, a stoppie lifts the rear wheel from too much braking ;)

Todd I got on my first motorcycle in 1961 {wow its been that long? yikes}
and raced from the mid 60s until about 74-75. Unless my memory is going
in my old cabaza`{which is possible mind you} the word "Stoppie." is new
to me! Over the top, Off the Highside, etc yes but never "stoppie"!! Sorry.
Cheers Thom_j.
"O" I had a Honda for a week but my first bike was an old single cylinder
500cc BSA & they were called "thumbers" by all the racers. What a ride!

  You forgort the Flying W.
We called single cylinder 4 strokes Thumpers not Thumbers...
  My first bike was in 1973/4  One of the first Honda Two Stroke bikes...not
the MX racer but the street/trail version of the MT 250 Elsinore.
  I spent the next two years turning it into a macho dirt bike,  with
Aluminum wheels, plastic fenders 3 gal desert tank, fancy Euro Shocks, and a
CR 250 Piston(the MX racer piston) I had a pretty mean machine...it got
stolen right about then.

EVERY SINGLE TYPO here on RAS :) Haven't seem him here for quite a
