I won't leak any info from the FPs or QP (later today), but the conditions were all over the place.

Did you watch the interview with hayden? He pretty much confirmed the move to Ducati

Ya, especially after he was asked about his thoughts on the split garage.

I can understand the partitioned paddock for the tire info confidentiality, but I'm sure there's been an invisible line in there for awhile now.

I really liked how Nicky said he's going to finish the season/HRC contract as best he can.  Good guy [thumbsup]

Very nice to see some of the gang at AMS for the race watch. Nice to hang with some at the Dub afterwards too. [drink] Great to see Ashok! It's been awhile. No spoiler here but it was a great race, very exciting and loved the results. That's all you're getting out of me until a few days go by and folks get to see their recorded versions if they missed it live. Sorry I missed you Swanny, they said you were there for awhile but left before the race started. We could have talked up the AR trip! [thumbsup] Thanks to AMS for opening the doors, inviting us and supplying food and drinks. Well done!! [thumbsup] [beer] [clap]

Sorry we missed you. We left at the same time as  Swanny. Had a really good time, and it was nice meeting Swanny, McKraut, and Cyclone, as well as the DLS family. I'm sure that there were others, but I have been drinking  [drink]  [beer]

The Doctor & I both need a Ducati !

Some scientists claim that hydrogen, because it is so plentiful, is the basic building block of the universe. I dispute that. I say there is more stupidity than hydrogen, and that is the basic building block of the universe.

Nice pics bro'!! Was a good time for sure, glad I could make it. Had a great time with everyone and my friend who was going to come to my house and watch it couldn't because his wife just had her first chemo treatment Friday and was not fairing well. :P Just as well, he said he hated it. What's up with that? He emailed me a pregnant dog-fest about the racing, the track, the weather, the commentators...everything. Glad I wasn't around to listen to it. [thumbsup] Too many negative waves man. I thought it was a damn good race and I like those commentators... they crack me up and they know wtf they are talking about. Read: not Greg White! Anyway, really nice time and a good (but awlfully wet!) race!! See ya'll in Arkansas!! [moto]

Here's my silly photos (some courtesy of WiWa). Maybe I'll try looking through the viewfinder next time... :P

Hey Cyclone, thank you for the nice picture! It was good to see everyone at the event, and Duc L'Smart go get yourself a splint on that digit.
