HOLY SH** Ben Spies in 2010 MOTOGP!!!!

[aka Danksy]

I know we ride Hayabusa's but I am a BIG FAN of anyone anything that can go that fast.

Spies has won something dumb like HALF of the World Superbike races he has been in this year!!!

CANT WAIT to see what he can do on an YZF-M1

We'll see what happens when he stacks up against THE DOCTOR aka Valentino Rossi.

We like our CMRA Racing here in Texas. You may have heard of SOME of these past racers:

CMRA :: Central Motorcycle Roadracing Association

Colin Edwards
Ben Spies
Kevin Schwantz
Freddie Spencer
Nicky, Roger, & Tommy Haden
Sam McDonald
Doug Polen


Recognize any of these people?

I have been watching all year. But, Colin Edwards has been trying to do the best he can on a 2nd rate yamaha, while Valintino is on top shelf equipment with Lorzeno! So Ben is going to have a tuff time trying to run up front! He's got the top shelf yamaha r1 right now, which that helps keep you in the winners circle!

From what I read Ben (if this is all comes to fruition) can not ride a factory bike because of the rookie rule.
Tech 3 MotoGP bike aint gonna be near the directly factory supported equipment Rossi and Lorenzo are riding.

I dont think the R1 is 'top shelf' either, you could put Ben on nearly anything and he'd win. That Yam is as high in the WSBK standings because of the rider, ask Tom Sykes!

Still cant believe Suzy let Ben get away, HUGE miss there....

Once he is not messing up my Xerox Duc team's hopes anymore I'll start pulling for him again

Not being defensive. But can you please post a link or something in regards to this "rookie rule"? As I have not heard or seen anything about it.

I catch some of these races at night on Speed. The announcers really brag on the Texan.
