so do I
but this dvd was made at the time when it was GP500 (500cc two-stroke engines, 190 hp / 140kg :] ) and now they were given 999cc four-stroke reachin sth about 240-50 hp at almost the same weight ;D thats why it goes over 340 km/h

yeah im not too sure about all the things to do with performance and engineering behind the motogp, the main realon i like it is just for the entertainment of watching it

For me rallying is alot better

basicly most of people doesnt see the diference betwen racing and rallying - but the difference is HUGE - its like comparing tenis to ping-pong - heres a car, and heres the car but good race driver propably never gonna be good rallyer and same opposit side good rallyer propably wont show too much in racing.
for me racing is much better than rallying coz at least U can see your opponent and U've got less marigin for mistake (if U kno what i mean-on special stages rallying drivers are havin a lot of slight mistakes (im not talkng about fallin of the clif ) - but on race track - one mistake and U at least can lost couple of positions - which - belive me is v.hard to earn back if U R not Valentino of course - haha )

Pretty much any other racing except F1 is cool, there has not been a time i'v fliped on F1 and found M.Schumacher in the lead! but people still watch it, there is like no hope if your in 2nd or 3rd place, those 2 might as well just ride together and talk about what they are going to do after the race.

Now Valentino on the other hand is the reason i started likeing MotoGP, I have never seen a person go from 1st to last to running every one down and getting 2nd place before the race is over, at least he gives you a chance to lead when he goes down.

yup - but its not a slight mistake - when U traveling on the maximum possible limit 7 mph makes HUGE difference - slight mistake is when he goes like 5 kmh too fast - it gives "only" unnessesary slide - and as a spectator U propably wouldn even notice that sth went a bit worng
