This promo isn't showing them under the lights, but you get the idea. Night time is just more appealing to the eyes.

Whoa! Another MotoGP fan on Hogville?? I thought there were only Nascar fans here. Make sure to catch the Moto2 race, too. Those guys will swap paint!


I'm going to Austin in 3 weeks.

I had tickets to the race in Indy for 2 years.  Pretty fun time.  I was there when the hurricane blew through and watched a metal folding chair blow out of the upper deck  and they were still going 170+ down the front straight away. 
To borrow from Mark Twain, there are three kinds of lies:

I was there, too! Crazy to think a hurricane blows through Indiana!

We bought big, curly wigs for Simoncelli and we didn't even get to see him race. RIP Super Sic!

We sat right on the new infield section. They were binning bikes left and right on the new tarmac during practice. Practice and Qualifying were great fun. Sunday, not so much.


Great performance from Dovi in Qualifying. The Desmo is still a slow turd around the corners. I think Spies has lost his edge. Probably needs to just hang up the boots.

Not sure who to root for in Moto2 now that Maniac Joe is in GP. Need another crazy rider.

Remember the,"Red Bull Grand Prix of The Americas" is going on in Austin this weekend. This is huge, wish I was there. Moto2 and 3 are also going on. It's worth recording if you're watching Nascar.
Qualifying: Speed Channel 8pm CST.
MotoGP Live on Speed @1:30pm CST.

Approaching hour 10 of the ride home. Texas roads are the worst.

They're long and flat for sure. Hated to see the Texas Tornado fall out.

I would say hog fans watch a lot of racing, they're just not familiar with brakes or right hand turns.

6/29/13 THE DOCTOR REIGNS in Assen!!

Lorezo is beyond tough. Twelve to fourth and ending up fifth with a collarbone broken in three places held together with a titanium plate and nine screws around 36 hours after the injury.

Just watched the replay! Rossi's 80th win. Lorenzo is crazy tough.
