Title: Moto GP Laguna Seca

What a great race today at Laguna Seca! Nicky and Colin kicked butt and put on a good show. I am just disappointed I didn't get to attend :(

I certainly hope they continue to come back.  It was great seeing them run on a track on American soil.

There was a stellar turn out as far as I can tell. Friday had about the same crowd you would normally see at an AMA Superbike race. Sunday was off the hook!!!

Unfrotunately, I was hearing moaning from the EU attendees regarding how "unsafe" the race course was. We'll see how FIM sees it. I hope they come back.

The said attendance was way off. Because there were so many people coming in, that they werent even looking at the tickets. If you held something up that even looked like the ticket, you were in the gate. There were closer to 100,000.

There is NO audio that can explain the way the GP bike sound. Almost as loud as a topfuel draggster leaving the line.
