That slow, eh?

Isn't there a recent Rossi (or his manager) quote that goes something like;

"why would I want to let anyone know how fast I can go, we aren't racing yet are we!!!" ;)

Tim:ninja:

We were watching fridays events from various places around the track and it was very obvious that the two monsters were holding their own around the corners. I certainly didnt see any bikes that were gaining ground on them. They both looked very impressive, even Nicks bike that still had the number plates on!

Later on in the day we were both very impressed to watch a BMW flat twin tourer thing complete with panniers beinmg ridden very quickly. He took it steady for a couple of laps then in was knee down into the left hander before the mountain and huge wheelies over it. Very impressive. Turns out it was a journo from MCN.

Low point of the day was watching the medivac helicopter take a faller away to hospital.

Lap times are a secret, but let's just say both timothy and I showed up a lot of the jap riding club racers, and our bikes aren't even race ready :D

Tim, have you found a big enough trophy cabinet yet?

Sounds like a misquote opportunity;

"we were timing our laps, but we didn't need a second-hand!!!"

1.48's - pah - we were going back up the mountain on our second laps in that time!!!! ;)

butch890 28-Mar-2005 11:36

Whats a second hand,we didnt need a minute hand!
