What happened to the Ben yesterday?  Seems like his bike wasn't slowing down properly with him over riding multiple corners, and running up Nicky's ass.

Interesting. I was wondering why he was running wide so often and what he was messing with around the bars/top triple. Just a bad day all around for The Ben. Just glad he didn't take out Nicky or get himself hurt. The mechanic responsible damn well better take him out for a really nice steak dinner and drinks.
I plan to list the Federal Gov't. as a dependent on my next 1040 tax filing!

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

CONFIDENCE: the feeling you have right before you understand the situation.

It is easy to judge knowing the outcome, but dang, wouldn't it be easier to just pull in the pits for 10 seconds and pull the tool off rather than mess with it, then focus on it all race and eventually crashing?

Did you get that film developed yet?


Pardon the shitty cell phone quality.

It's gonna sound funny because of what it looks like on the pic, but I was surprised at how small he was. He's standing on a curb there, we're about level or I'm just a bit taller at 5'10"

I *really* wish the 1000s didn't have that fuel limit.  Cuz I wanna see what The Ben (and Nicky and Casey) would do with that sorta beast.  Maybe Dovi too, since he rides loose coming into corners.
