I'm officially starting a #93 fan club  [bow_down]

This kid is ridiculous.

Nicky on the second row and Colin in 12th. Ben crashed and make the beast with two backsed up his shoulder again  [thumbsdown]

Could be another MM show tomorrow. [popcorn] [Dolph] He has won the last two Indy Moto2 races and says he likes the track. Guess he proved that yesterday and today.

Glad I got the heads up from superbikeplanet.com about the demise of SPEED and how all the MotoGP and F1 races will now be on FOX Sports 1 channel. I had checked and my season setting on my dvr did not switch to the new channel. Once it started broadcasting today I manually reset to record on FS1. It's nice that they will broadcast all three GP bike classes in a row... Moto3, Moto2 then the Big Boys. No waiting until Tuesday to see the M3 race. [thumbsup]

Pity for The Ben. Bummer. :P :'(

Im pulling for Marquez for the championship. Time to shake the alien boys up.

In a way it reminds me of 1978 when KR Sr. went over to Europe racing on Goodyears and won the championship in his first year. No one expected that. To MM's favor there are lots of folks that exected him to some kick butt. I thought he'd do well but not this well! I thought he'd make a splash like Lorenzo but the kid is making a tsunami!! Good for him.

Didn't some guy named Pedrobot use to race for HRC/Repsol? [laugh]

TV coverage...Verizon FiOS

Fox Sports 1 replaced Speed, but races not listed in the guide.

Search MotoGP and it returns Fuel channel...

Any advice..

I have Verizon FIOS as well and it shows up on my guide as Motorcycle Racing on Fox Sports 1, Channel 583 in the Dallas area.

Swanny

Oh my God! Swanny is alive and well. [thumbsup] [beer] [Dolph]

Indy Big Boy race results *** SPOILER!! ***

Airborn!!

That dude is badass.  [bow_down]

I'd like a poster of that... ;D

They were talking about Kenny Roberts running a team again.  I bet he signs Nicky.  Just saying.............

Was at Indy and saw the MM overtake.  What a great weekend it was.  Rossi did good. Was worried at the start.

My buddy had a freakin grid pass for moto2.  I have no idea how he got it or what he paid, but he had pit pass for all and grid pass for moto2.  what a lucky guy.  It's incredible chance.

I bet they got torn a new one.
it was awesome to watch but their team lost the points from them both being taken by Smith.

Like Nicky cares. ;)

After the race we saw Nicky and Dovi walking to the administration building together.  They had some explaining to do.   [thumbsdown]

I doubt they had explaining to do. Losing out a position to Smith doesn't make a bit of difference in the championship...it isn't like Ducati is going to beat Honda or Yamaha for the manufacturers title. Plus, they didn't crash. They should get a bonus, as it's the 1st time anyone has talked about a Ducati after the race in quite a while!!

Nice move Nicky! I dont think i have ever seen this type of aggressive passing from him.

I dunno if the views from the pits were THAT great... ;D

Just some teasers as I am still sorting through the over 7000 pictures I took.
