You're right, it was Barber...for some reason I'm always getting them mixed up. Funny too, because I think Barber is a great track, while Miller is not so much so. I missed the Race 2s also...  I get them confused all the time & yes I think Barber is way better too. Must be something about being able to contrast between the track and the grass as opposed to track & desert. Same thing as Willow Springs. |

No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori. Good people drink good beer. Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.
It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level. Everything else is just fluff.

 BS is what that is. Must be a good day for NASCAR on Speed. ( but thanks, I might have missed Race 2 if not for your "heads up" ) |

Speed is broadcasting the Rolex Sports Car 6 hour race at Watkins Glen twice on Sunday, they usuallly run on Saturday...  ...now don't get me wrong as I enjoy watching Rolex Sports Car, but repeating a 6 hour race on the same day is ridiculous when you have other unbroadcast programming to air... |

I've written off SPEED for MotoGP and WSBK races. I like the expanded and UNINTERRUPTED coverage I get by downloading torrents of European channels.

If you have the proper interfaces and patches I'm told that is a YES. Everyone keeps telling me to get a laptop and patch it into the big screen. I answer "What if Gloria is watching TV?" So, you see, in our household there is a conflict at certain times. But she does like to watch the races so that's good!  |

I liked watching the match ups between Spies and Dovi...as well as Crutchlow trying to get through the factory and satellite Ducatis. I was really hoping Spies would get on the podium. Meanwhile, I wonder who will be replacing Stoner and Hayden (if Ducati doesn't renew his contract) next year!
The final laps of Moto3 were exciting and kept everyone guessing!

I don't think you have to worry about Hayden. Your man Rossi is another story. |
