The session was half wet and half dry.  I really wish Nicky could get a buncha dry laps on the Duc.

All the Ducs takin' up the rear 'cept for Stoner.  <sigh>

Unfortunately Casey would have them make a few adjustments and go fast...

and Nicky would...

struggle.

I don't know why.

about the same.  you can tell from the top speeds of the Pramac bikes, even the satellite machines are getting the 'good' stuff...

the problem here (good problem, on the one hand) is that they found the proverbial lightning in a bottle with the 800cc bike and casey.  bigger problem.. that they are now more fully acknowledging.. is that it's only that 1 dude who can ride the thing.  and they have 5 bikes on the grid.  possibly 7 if/when king kenny and MGM get their deal worked out.
