Guess we can all play "what if?" and ask how it might have gone if race two hadn't been killed for him by an electrical glitch that forced a bike restart.

yup.  those 9 points were the title.  bummer.
Like this is the racing, no?

Hey folks, I'm sorry about the spoiler. My bad big time. I'm just used to the race threads having spoiler alerts and just wasn't thinking straight on this Hopper thread. Again, apologies extended. [bang]

Wow, that was a ball buster of a last lap. Holy shit! :o Feel bad for Hopkins but hey, that's racing. [beer] [popcorn]
I plan to list the Federal Gov't. as a dependent on my next 1040 tax filing!

I have flying honey badgers and I'm not afraid to use them!

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.

No Hopper at Sepang. [thumbsdown]

But maybe we'll see him riding for Crescent Suzuki in WSBK next season. [thumbsup]

Hopper is an idiot.
Occasionally AFM #702  My stuff:  The M1000SS, a mashed r6, Vino 125, the Blonde, some rugrats, yuppie cage, child molester van, bourbon.

Figuring he's about to be left without a prom date, like the high school nerd who's been helping with Suzuki's homework and thinks he has a chance?

Good luck Hopper. The opportunities are thinning and the number of riders to pick from is growing. Make that the number of riders without issues or injuries is growing. He will be lucky to be back in BWSK next year. Which isn't a bad thing.

I'd hope Crescent would have a place for him, as he did pretty well for them this past season.

Hope to see him somewhere, and if that place ends up being another year in England, well, that's not so bad.

Yeah, and he speaks the local language. ;D
