That Miguel guy is pretty good.
Miquel is my favorite.
What sealed the deal was when he crashed a Mid-Ohio and he looked in the camera and said: "Mom and Dad, I'm OK"
What a good boy! ;D

He is one of my favorites too! I have the same signed litho, and also a signed one from Tim Berry (http://secure.cartsvr.net/catalogs/catalog.asp?prodid=1447519)
I also had Miguel sign the front faring of my VFR 2 years ago at VIR...too bad a tractor trailer took us both out and ruined the autograph.
>:(
MY FAVORITE MIGUEL MOMENT WAS A FEW YEARS BACK WHEN HE FLIPPED OFF,THAN CUT OFF PAUL HARRELL IN PRACTICE AND PAUL FOLLOWED HIM OFF THE TRACK AND INTO THE PITS AND SLAPPED HIM ON THE BACK OF THE HEAD IN FRONT OF HIS CREW,OR WAS IT WHEN HE SHOVED THE CORNER WORKER AND THREW ROCKS ON THE TRACK
Yea....
I thought someone would bring up the Barber incident. Not one of his shining moments....
Oh well, he's still one of my favorites.
Dawn :)
just had to bring it up,my bad...i do feel he is one of the most talented riders to ever throw a leg over a bike.i like him because he's not very young but still getting it done.you can never count him out
Ah, fun story...
Ok, so Dale Quarterley was a friend of mine and my mentor.
Anyway, Dale had this old Kawasaki two stroke street bike...it was like 100cc's but someone actually raced it and all. Won a race.
Someone stole it from Dale's shop or something.
Anyway, at Daytona, Dale was at Jerry Wood's big auction. And they announce that they have a Kawasaki such-and-such bike up for bid. (Not his, but like it.) They announce to the crowd that it have Yvon DuHammel's autograph on the tank (if you didn't know, Miguel's dad was a factory road racer in the early 70's).
Dale pipes out, "Carb cleaner will take that off."
Everyone laughs.
Dale wins the bid.
Takes delivery...and out comes the carb cleaner... ;D
Not to burst your bubble, but you know the only thing wrong with the picture is that the ram air duct on the RC51 is missing.

Sheesh!
