Good god Tom, just when i was gaining some respect for you, you go and throw it out the window! Its his first time at the track on a GP bike ffs, he was in about the same position at Laguna after the first day.. Withold your brainless fishing comments until the race is over? Sheesh..


I will be expecting West to speed up for sure, i'm jut happy to see Randy back up at the very sharp end where he should be. Even when he does get better West will have trouble getting on terms with that.

why is it topical threads here just go off into a ..... fight

this site is supposed to be about general discussion amongst like minded people who enjoy the sport and like to pass around ideas and thoughts.

imho its about time the mods stepped in and started passing judgements ,even banning particiipation in threads to stop certain peoples personnal opinions and name calling being viewed by other people who are here to enjoy the site.

please guys play nicely and keep on topic

And how the hell is it a fall from grace? Its one day.. He has to adjust over the course of the weekend to running the bike at the track for the first time.. Time is what he needs.. Clearly your just desperate to berate and belittle because you have no JT to gag over.. edited

If you cant post your opinions without having to resort to personal insults, find someone else to play please - Ben.


You are so easy to wind up, you like to post little JT putdowns, so when I post one back about YOUR favourite rider I'm the devil incarnate.

Also, grow up and try not use use personal insults.

BTW CSCVAW, how did Curve insult your mom, I didn't see anything offensive in his post:

"cheer up?... i'm on holiday as of 5pm today!

And ChanChan, this is what happens when forums get larger, it's a sad fact of life that the more popular something is, the crapper people it brings.

Anyoo.... GP.

Guintoli

As said before: Qualifyers. On race tires his best lap was 1:59.9 and that would have sendt him back to 12th.

I'm kind of with Tom on this one. West is disappointing me right now. I reckoned Kawasaki would pick him b/c he's been improving every race but he's way off the pace right now.

I know the new tires rules have nearly render practice useless because you never know what teams are putting on the bike, but I'm worried that teams still expect their riders to be fast starting in FP1.

Same thing for Vermeulen. He's up to his old antics. Race well then vanish into the mid-pack melee.

I think Casey's going to run away with this one. Loris rode to an easy victory now it's Stoner's turn on even better equipment. I'm anticipating some good battles for positions 4-10 though.

Thanks for the answer to the question.

The only prob with editing things out is that we dont see what was written ( understandably ) but it also means that some of us jump on the bandwagon to defend people when really there may have been an insult.

I am sure it was not meant as one , just a misunderstanding

but there does seem to be a lot of off topic slagging going one with certain members.

lets all enjoy the spectacle

nothing new in that really. The Tech3 is probably updated over the summer and Guintolli had one good lap, the firt q-tire lap would barly given him 3rd. His fast enough to take the top position on q-tires when the rest is on race tires. we've seen that before in the Q-session when the tech guys start with q-tires half way through the session.
