Dom, my understanding is that Andy started working with Thomas either at the end of his 2004 season (25th) or the start of 05 (1st) - I think those results speak for themselves. |
I'm sure Andy helped a bit, but it's clear to see that Luthi was balistically fast BEFORE Andy came along, and is not super fast BECAUSE Andy came along.
You can't polish a turd... |
We all start from different points, we all have differing goals but importantly - Andy improved Luthi's results, and I'm sure he could improve yours and you're a turd!

But Luthi was already a GP podium finisher.
Everyone associated with CSS make out like he was some club racer and Andy Ibbot turned him in to a GP Champion.
You're being misleading.
How many true (normal people) CSS customers has Andy taken from club racing to GP's? Not doubting Andy one bit - just trying to bring a bit of reality to this thread. CSS did NOT turn a 25th placed rider into a World Champion.
I don't suppose the fact he was on a factory Honda, been in GP's 4 years, was bloody silly fast anyway AND the fact Kalio couldn't help but fall off - had nothing to do with it?
