:tab Awesome! I have always liked EBoz. Good to see him up front again after the last year on the aging Kwacker. Should be a great race!

Adios,

Oh, man. I'm getting all giddy. I like Eboz and hope the Duc works out for him this year.

Superstock and FX on thursday at 2pm Central time!

Heh, and I just saw this quote from Mladin:

“Last year everyone said my bike was too fast,” said Mladin, “but for Eric Bostrom to be on pole at Daytona his bike must be a rocketship. That Ducati must be really, really fast for Eric Bostrom to be on pole.”

I love the way he stirs things up.

It'll be interesting to see how this year turns out. The new Ducati will be a bad *** contender this year, but the new Honda CBR1000RR should give it a good run for its money.

I am definitely interested in seeing how Jake Zemke does as he steps up. I think he'll break the top 5 this year if not the top 3. I beleive Mladin is on a roll, but we'll have to wait and see if the mechanics can get his bike tuned right this year.

It's gonna be a good year for racing. MotoGP with my boy Hayden on the Honda. We'll see if Rossi is as good as we think he is or if it was the Honda that gave him the edge.

GO BIG RED! Honda all the way baby. Even supercross...Kevin W. still has a chance to win the series, but he'll have to get some good starts and hope that Chad R. gets caught in traffic. I'd like to see him pull it out. Next year will be awesome if Bubba S., Ricky C., Chad R., and Kevin W. all race the 250 class. It's gonna be bar banging good time.

Thank God for Tivo.

Thank God for Tivo.

Amen!

Although my wife probably wouldn't agree :-D

Even WSBK looks to be worth it again. I think Miguel and a 200mph top speed on the banking is worth watching, but Eric had almost two seconds on the field. Let's bring a Daytona trophy back to Texas!

I think you miss Matt's point. The previous year, everyone was whining about the GSX1000 being "too fast" because they could not catch it. This even after Matt had won the Championship in years past. Matt kind of took it to mean the only reason he was doing so well was because the bike was somehow "too fast", with the unspoken implication being that somehow this too fastness was unfair to everyone else.

:tab Now the shoe is on EBoz's foot. Everyone know's he is perfectly capable of riding the wheels off a bike. But to get that kind of margin on the field? So everyone starts the all to familiar... something about that bike is just too fast...

Adios,
