The Dodge Challenger Message Board

#3 Gotta say I saw more BMW bikes than ever. With 165 HP these newer bikes are pretty slick!

#4 More my style!

They wouldnt let anyone in the Paddock area, I couldnt get any close-ups of the GP bikes. Bummer

I dont ride anymore,,cant with my back&knees BUT if I were to ever buy another bike it would be this one!

They even had a Harley class but the bikes are slow and the exhaust sounds like my old lady after eating beans . They are stock 1200 CC street bikes with a Vance&Hines Race kit. The bikes can be race ready for just under 20K

The top class is just incredible. 600 CC Four stroke. The riders hit over 200 in the back straight and are so loud that they rattle your brain. The riders have no fear!

This was Valentino Rossi race trailer,, he popped out for just a second to say HI to all the young girls.

#11 I saw this near the Main entrance to the Track!

The top dog class!

Last pic,, hope you enjoy them Ade. Next year I want to see the race on Sunday. Cmon, Rossi!!

Ta for sharin mate that track looks awesome, big and wide and clean.
I bet you really enjoyed yourself in among most all that hype and excitement, the atmosphere behind the scenes is frantic and intoxicating at the same time.......... I hope you did get the chance to get intoxicated at the bar
Gonna be watching qualifying in a little while over here, I wanna see Hayden get on the podium. he needs a good result.
I wouldn't get too excited over them Dookarti's Edd, they ain't all their cracked up to be trust me, they look cool tho

They sound and look awesome though.

Yeah, Ade Ive never ridden a Ducati, but they are very cool looking though and make great torque. Typically, I like Kawasaki, the new 2012 ZX-10R is a beast. Ive owned a 1200 Harley,(the worst bike Ive ever owned, heavy stodgy, and drove like a 400 lb. fat woman), the next was a Honda CBR 600 F2,, very nice responsive good brakes. Then I had a ZX-11 C4 model and although it was a bit heavy, it had acceleration that was borderline insane! Sorry Ade, I didnt drink anything except for Perrier' but had a piece of Rum Cake

Did you watch the Indianapolis race? What a disaster for the two top US boys, felt really sorry for Hayden and Spies deserves a break, Pedrosa blew Lorenzo and Valentino just went thru the motions, hardly surprising after the confirmation of his move back to Yamaha for next year

Nope, they dont show ANY RoadRacing, MotoGP, Formula 1, World Sports car ectt on the tele at all! If the race vehicles dont turn in a circle, crash into each other, drink Mt. Dew, redneck hillbilly racing it dont get played! Hope Rossi gets his Mojo back like he used to have,, when he was with Yamaha!!

It was on our TV over here. One of the bigger channels too. I didn't watch it though. I used to like it in the old Barry Sheen days.
