Well Done Ben Spies!!!

[SquadraCorse]

Ben Spies just won the Assen TT. His first moto GP win from a flawless dominant performance. Well done sir!

Man, wasn't paying attention and what I read was "we done been spies" and automatically figured that you where recounting an event in which you became spies with a hill-billy accent. Top work Mr Spies, I am sure your competition is crestfallen.

Good word, 'crestfallen'

 

[mokie]

Man, it's a totally legit word man! I promise as!

Thanks for the spoiler... :-[

Just finished watching (on DVR). Woot! The kid has got talent in spades, and I'm thinking if the bike can keep up with the Hondas at other tracks, we may see more of Ben on the podium.

In other news, Sic, seriously? I know it was just a racing incident but your timing couldn't be worse this year!

Also, raise your hand if you think Colin took a major one for the team this weekend.

mokie, your probably not the only one who enjoys a joint every now and again, but having it be mentioned as your second or third post on a website? not good mojo. hope you don't ride or wrench while under the influence. Theres a time and place for everything; power tools or power sports are neither the place to combine with drugs.


congrats to ben spies.... great victory.

I was very surprised to see Ben run away and win! Good job!!! I had figured the Hondas had everyones ass this year. I thought Stoner was going to take the title before the end of the season. Looks like Yamaha found something extra. Lets hope so.

As for Simo the man needs to be taken out behind the pits and "learned". He is a menace to an already small grid.

I agree with respect to Sic. He was putting a clean pass on Lorenzo, but I'd hope at that level he'd know the limits of his machine on cold tires. The guy is out of control. The race itself was pretty dull, but I was psyched to see Ben run away with it. He's probably the most humble racer I've ever seen.

I can't wait to watch them LIVE next year in Texas.

I thought next year would be F1, followed by MotoGP in 2013?

At any rate, I'm getting ready to grab my plane and hotel tix.!!!! While I love Laguna it really is not a GP course. The bikes can barely get out of 3rd!
