Not only are you guys into boobies, but fake ones at that!  [laugh]

Um, those would be considered an after-market top end kit. There's nothing wrong with big bore twins.  [laugh] [laugh] [laugh] [laugh] [laugh] [laugh]

Gee, anyone on this thread hang out in the VIP area, Ducati pits, see hotness walking, snap any great race shots, and have it to show?
Throw it down  ;D



So I was in vip red bull with my g/f and the funniest thing happened... there was TomKat sighting. And oddly enough, it was cool to see him and he gets kuddos for being a race fan. My g/f went nuts! She absolutely loves Tom Cruise and got to talk to him about the race - he was talking her ear off and I couldn't manage to got a good front shot with them. The one shot was as they were leaving and it came out IZ_ unfortunately  :'(  I tried to mess w/it in Photoshop, but it came out gritty.

We were there all three days and its was super cool. We saw some ama riders down in the paddock; we saw actors down there and in the redbull vip. The race was bad-ass and totally thrilling ;D ;D ;D. In the turn 11 grandstands I was amidst a sea of Rossi fans. I was rooting for Stoner and even though Stoner didn't win, I was happy to see Rossi take it because I love him too!

One highlight, and I really wish I had caught this on film, was seeing Christian Pfeiffer doing his stunts in the Red Bull courtyard. He was doing all his crazy stopp-ee spins, burnouts -- completely UNREAL tricks -- in a circle of people maybe 35ft across. I seriously thought my heart was gonna stop seeing him hold a stoppee, spinning like a balerina while his back wheel was whipping by people's faces only a couple feet away. It was terrifyingly cool -but that's just me and my self-preservation talking.

Even though I'm rooting for Ben, it was still cool to get a shot with Mladin. I have lots of respect of him -he's a tremendous racer.

All in all we had a great time and the ride back with Dan and Maria was awesome. Next year I'm bringing my video cam everywhere and I need to get a better camera that doesn't take IZ_ pics. I probably saw people from the board who I haven't met yet. It's just crazy out there, especially on sunday. I'm going to the next meet with my new 696 so hopefully I'll get to know more of y'all then.

Matt's cool but - go Ben!
