Anyone else talking RACING?! <--- of the motorcycle type

Well, if anyone asks, I would be the first to say that our Princess should not to give up the day job for a career in public relations or ticket sales..

 

Very, very sad day....

It's OK Billyjean, I thankfully accept that you have a problem and don't have the common sense to understand what is going on, I'm just glad it's me that irritates you....wait a second, lemme rephrase that, I'm overjoyed that it is me that irritates you. Norcalboy's dog, Billyjean......All I gotta do is post and you come unnutted and start blathering, to easy, but so much fun.

 

I would really like to see Hayden do well after languishing on Ducati and suffering injuries.
we shall see.

The deal with Casselli was some kind of bullshit. A trap set by local assholes takes out a internationally competitive racer. Sad indeed.

 

What would be interesting on this particular thread would be for the statistically gifted (an allegory of bean counter

) to go back to the beginning of the thread and compare what the inside trackers and prognosticators were predicting at the time

A caveat here.. Just what was predicted here and certainly just the beginning of the thread, since going back to the beginning is kinda controversial in some places.

Next we shall no doubt hear from the peanut gallery a voice what sez something like "Why don't U doit?"

EZ....beans are something to cook and eat not count. This includes potatoes of the tuber variety.

 

This is kinda freaky

 

OMG somebody has cloned Donny Osmond!

 

That is Nicky Hayden and the current champ, Marc Marquez a few years ago.

If they only knew...

 

Someone knew...

 

I wonder if he realized that kid would be kicking his ass in a few short years?

 

lol, they seem to be good friends now. Val was so excited by MM's pass on him at the top of the corkscrew. "(You did a Rossi to me!)

 

So I get the M-2 is looking at the camera, but I wonder who the local talent is that Nicky sees. Must be awesome to meet, then beat your childhood idols.

Super cool vid of 8 year old Marquez!

 

Great video, thanks.

 

That was very cool, nice lean angle at that age. Freekin Spaniard's, there winning everything, where the hell is ALL the American talent. NO-MAS. Oh and lets not EVEN talk F1--------------------------who was the last American in that series, Andretti ?

 

Keep an eye on these up & coming kids, maybe one of them will be the next world champ!
