I went to my first wsbk this year - awesome!

I have no FHE about the GP, but from those who have been to both, the wsbk is a lot less people, you can ride in and around the track. Awesome time!

there were a whole heap of support races - from memory the usual supersport and susperstock world titles, and some  classic races as well - to be honest, I missed the Sat (went Friday arvo and the sunday for the races, so I'm not sure what else was on.

What I do remember was seeing some bevels racing round the island, sounding very similar to Troy's 1098R - luv it, old or new, the ducs sounded way way better than anything else.

MyLittleDuc and meself have been to the GP's and the Supers over the last 10 years and the Supers are the more relaxed woth more of the rider types attending. [moto]

The GP's are a bit like the car GP where a lot more "hangers on" who arnt really that enthused about bikes and/or bike racing and go cos they have got free tickets from their partners place of employment or a corporation/sponsor.

Dont get me wrong , the MotoGP is tops but I love the Supers best, a lot more relaxed and more bike oriented. ;D [beer]

Speaking of which I'd betyter get the bikes out and head down the Bass Highway. YEEEEEHHHHAAAAA. See ya Tuesday. [moto] [clap]
