so long as you wade through the 80% bullshit of the first 3 pages...  Then?  Yeah, it's a good read.

But I've never dealt with the guy so I can't say...

Ed,

They only had you down for the Daytona encounter with Nate.  Wasn't there one in '06 at Topeka too?

Technically he didn't really run me off the track, hit me or put me into the ICU in that particular incident so it doesn't fully meet the requirements of the post.

He couldn't run me all the way off the track because the pit wall was in the way. He didn't hit me because I was able to turn hard enough and quick enough to avoid his chop so I didn't make it to the ICU on that day. An entire tower full of CCS officials, including the race director witnessed the LSOC try to put me into the pit wall. The fact that he left Topeka with his license intact still astounds me to this day.   

The funniest thing about the incident was a member of the Kern camp, no wait, I'm sure by now a former member of the Kern camp stating "If Key thinks he's so fast why did he wait until the last lap to pass".

I still laugh about that.

Yes, and now the writer who wrote that piece is looking a little deeper into Mr. Kern's past. That's why Road Racing World is the best motorcycle publication in print. They actually care about the sport and the people involved in it.
