Squeak 17 #3 May 6, 2007 Quote Wow what a cracking circuit that new Shanghai is. The designer is brilliant. clicky P.S Ducati rules!!! As far as racing goes the China GP wasn't that good. Last weeks World Supers was much better entertainment. And next GP Race in Europe will test the Duke, the older style tracks don't have as long a straight so the Dukes top end may not be as advanageous. then we wil see how Casey and the Duke handle the twisities, especially when it gets a little crowded But I have a suspicion it's going to be a Great year for Motorbike Racing in MotoGP Wold super Bikes and super SportsI left thew DZ early to be home to watch the RaceYou are not now, nor will you ever be, good enough to not die in this sport (Sparky) My Life ROCKS!

shropshire 0 #4 May 6, 2007 You're right about the fast circuits not favouring the Dukes.. But I dont find those races as exciting either. (.)Y(.) Chivalry is not dead; it only sleeps for want of work to do. - Jerome K Jerome Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stumpy 284 #5 May 6, 2007 Huh? the fast circuits DO favour the dukes don't they? Hence why Valentino said the other week he doesn't expect to win on them! the man craves corners! lolNever try to eat more than you can lift Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In terms of other sports I'd put him up there with Lance Armstrong and Roger Federer for sheer unrivalled talent.Do you want to have an ideagasm?

YOU SUCK MONKEY NUTSI'm jealous I showed up too late for the 125cc, but made it for the 250cc and the GP. The 250cc was a no contest. The GP was quite interesting, as Stoner ran a very smart race. The best part was that I scored a Staff pass, so I was wandering around the facility like I owned it!

MrHixxx 0 #13 May 6, 2007 Looks like something a woman pleasures herself with... I will be interested to see if the Yamaha team can iron things out with Rossi's bike and tires. It seems like the field is catching up with him this year. I also have a perverse idea in my head about how Rossi would be on a Ducati... I saw a kickass dogfight in race two of Superbike from Assen. Bayliss totally sniped Toseland off the last turn. Seriously hair raising shit!!! -Hixxxdeath,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
