I am curious as to what forum thinks would happen if Ben Spies was a flop in MotoGP ? Alleged superbike phenomenon, yet still only 2nd in the championship ? Still being beaten by Haga, a man who James Toseland (MotoGP failure )beat every season he raced him both on 2 cylinders and 4 cylinder...

Correct me if I am wrong, but if he wins the championship this year, it will be the first time in SBK history that a rider wins it in his rookie season. Just how talented do you think Ben Spies really is? I assume he will eventually move to MotoGP and will be highly competitive, but do you think...

I may be on to something (or not) as to how Ben is so bloody good.I`ve been folllowing Ben from the season start and I`ve decided he uses arms and elbows to countersteer in corners or he uses them to push his front end to maximum grip,hence his sorta `gangly` style.What do you think?

In a little over half a season, he has tied Chris Vermuelen in wins. Has passed the likes of Fred Merkel [2 time champ] Ben Bostrom and every rider on the grid today in wins except Haga. At his his current pace, by the end of the year he will have passed Hodgson, Kocinski, Toesland and Russell...

Just wondering what you guys think. Since Mat Mladin was DQed and caught cheating, and this effectively assures Ben Spies his 3rd AMA Superbike title, then will he make it to MotoGP? My answer is No. Suzuki don't seem to want to field a third bike. I doubt he will agree to a satellite team...

Guys any of you got any idea of the Spies lap times? During the vid he seemed to be pushing.. Schwantz seems to be cruising a little bit.. ..... Anyone..

Did anyone catch him with despain on windtunnel? He mentioned that motogp might not be that far away as some people are saying it will be for him. I think if he puts in another stellar year in the ama he'll get a ride with someone. He's pretty young too.
