One can never count out Vale, despite past winners or current polesitters.

I'll go out on a limb and give Colin a nod for at least a podium spot!

There is talk of a MOTO GP race at Indy in '08! I will do my damnedest to get there and see the best in the world. How about Rossi on a Ducati? That would be something to see! Michael

Indy would be OK for the fans, but without mods, I doubt the riders would love it. Concrete-wall line banking and 200mph + two wheelers don't mix well. The F-1 guys hate the place...just ask Ralf Schumacher, LOL!

Naah! Just wishful thinking.

They baited us by starting the season a month early, only to have us wait nearly a month between races. Not the sponsor and fan friendly thing to do when you're supposed to be the up-and-coming next big thing. The downtime can't be good for the riders and teams either, come to think of it.

No wonder the MGP paddock is scrounging for sponsors. NASCAR would have never made household name status if it wasn't for the constant schedule and constant media bombardment.

Are you listening, DORNA?

Cheers,

Kevin

Well Turkey was a surprise, did you see Chris Vermuelen's Suzuki sitting on top of the other bike, pulled it off and went back on the track.
Casey Stoner is the lad to watch this season.

I guess the Turkey surprise season opened early this year.
