Amazing rider. I was shocked to see Spies go down so quickly, I was hoping to see them battle out every lap

I thought both Superbike races were kinda' boring.
Mladin owns that group of riders. I'm no big Mladin fan, but the guy is the best.

I thought the best race of the weekend was Sunday's Red Bull Rookies Cup race. That was some really good racing.
Just serves to remind me how much I wish there was something like NASCAR's old IROC series for the AMA guys.

I'd LOVE to see the top 15 or so guys all on equally prepared bikes racing for 15 laps.

Saturday's Formula Extreme race was really good.

Greg, I saw your brother there and talked to him. He said something about you being as worthless as **** on a boar hog.
I didn't argue.

Dont take anything away from Mat though. The Suzukis may be the best bikes out there but Tommy Hayden's a damn good rider and he hasn't won anything on one. Older or not Mat's talents should've been showcased in motogp or at least world superbike a long time ago. What I'd really love to see is him and Ben swap bikes with any of the other factory teams and see what happens.

Nicky might do well with the Pnuematic Repsol they ran today for the Japanese test rider. Hell he might even be on it by Laguna!

Higher revs CAN equal more power that he desperatly needs. Yeah I guess that won't help him fit on it any better though.
