Cool as cool can be..............gotta see the whole thing!!!! :tu: :tu: :tu:

Thanks,
              One guy went down at 300KMH/186MPH.................86 would be horrible, much less 186!!!!

Scary shit.  I'll reserve that kind of speed for about 1.5 miles of open, straight road.............when I get that "special" hair up my ass.  Usually, I chop anywheres from 160ish-175ish.  Ain't no turbo, but still pretty quick.   

All those guys are partially crazy, IMO.

My favorite venue of racing to watch these days(on tomorrow night at 9:30 this weekend instead of the usual Sunday mornings,in Australia now and a fast track where the record is 215.11 mph down the straight...pretty amazing to have riders hitting over 210 mph 27 times in one race  :thumb:).Bunch of us are going out Sunday morning,thinking I'll break out the GoPro since I haven't used it in a while.

 Just do not split lanes between a semi and a car at 160ish.   :wink:

My tv service sucks, I only have like 80 channels, gonna break down and get the first class plan...................so I can watch that stuff as well.  Used to be a time when you could get the Daytona 500 on a regular TV with rabbit-ears.  That was when Doug Chandler and that whole crowd were racing in the late 70's-early 80s'.......if memory serves............and we only had about 6 channels in the DC area.  No cable, no satellite, just a 38" round screen color Toshiba that was OK if you were 5 feet away.

I was out of breath after watching it!
Non stop action from the drop of the flag until the checker... The Ducati was able to demonstrate its actual HP advantage on the fast straights too. The Honda would blow by the Yamaha, and the Ducati would suck the paint off of both of them!! Did you see Iannone head but the seagull?!!  :shock:

Me too bro,especially the last few laps with all the passing going on(and love that announcer,dude got so excited sounds like he was about to stroke out! :lol:).The Ducati  was flyin' and could kill everybody down the straights,that dude did a hell of a job and think he finished 3rd.Yep,saw the Seagull get taken out,feathers flyin' everywhere(good thing it happened when coming out of a corner and not down that 210 mph straight,could've gotten ugly if it would've caught somebody in the forehead :lol:).I think that was the best race I've seen all year,have re-watched it several times. :thumb:
