Correct, it was a Cattiva R (Racing only) Forged Magnesium rim, which apparently let go, am still waiting for OZ to tell me their side of the story, but we only bring in the Forged Alloy rims before the hysteria starts.. have to say i am surprised, as OZ are a completely professional group, and are owned by Braking, most the guys are ex Marchesini... anyway, if i find out more will let you know...

yeah I have seen hysteria on other forums, people looking to cancel orders because of an incident they dont have the full details on - all unjustified in my opinion.  These are racing rims that get a hard life - the rims that you buy for street would be safe as.  OZ Racing has been around for how long?  First I have ever heard of it in race conditions...but we digress from the thread...as usual

Don't you just love it when the panic sets in

Max is a girl full stop! He wouldn't of done that to Checa or anyone else as he would of been head butted straight away.  Hope he loses the title, he's a blouse wearer! 

Maybe he learnt to slap like that from his pregnant dog wife. there is word she beats him to a pulp every nigh after dressing him in dipper's and a bib to soak up his dribble , Poor emperor

Awesome stuff - Go Carlos!

Race 2, Carlos on the last lap on soft tyres sliding all over the place, and still schooled Max on his high HP priller!

  Missed the 2nd heat unfortunately, fell asleep during the supersports 2nd red flag.

  But that was great pass, poor Max  (I'm sure he's not used to being treated like that)

  Just a reminder, Superbikes from Monza this weekend.

          Superpole  2pm - 3pm  Sunday    British Superbikes  6pm - 7.30pm

          World Superbikes  7.30 pm

  That will make a blissfull 6 + hrs of Sunday night bike racing, almost makes Foxtell worthwhile.
