    Anyone heard any more about the nascar take-over of AMA racing?....
    I'm concerned they [nascar] will screw it up !....they've ruined
    they're own series.
    Spec this & spec that,..winy-baby drivers, & moving more & more out
    west.

    I go to Mid-Ohio every year,don't want to lose that,..& I was
    surprised to see no Duquoin on the flat track schedule this year. Glad
    to see Indy back !!....but don't want to sacrifice one for another.

    From my position here on the other side of the atlantic, it seems to
    be a complete and total **** up, and I've not been able to even come
    close to understanding what's going on. Last I heard, the bike
    manufacturers were trying to get up their own series.

    Mark and Tom will be along shortly to give their almost completely
    opposite views on events, and then to knock lumps out of each other.

    Nah, I'm pretty much done with that loser, trying to talk to him is
    like trying to convert a McCain luvr (a lost cause) and I have much
    better things to do with what little time I have here, though make no
    mistake, I'm not about to let him spread more of his Japcentric
    bullshit unchallenged..

    On another and more OT note, have you heard anything about Spies and
    Yamaha in WSB? Would that be Haga's, or Corser's ride? By the way, I
    saw a little of the Vallelunga race and Ole Nitro-Nori was lookin'
    pretty strong, but WTF happened to Max and that Songfulla(?) dude? That
    looked awful, I hope they're both okay and speakin' of ok, how are you
    comin' along? I hope you're out of the F'ing chair by now...

    Then again, most times (like this one) I don't even have to bother, as
    he openly displays almost everything shitty this country, or what is
    left of it now that his boys have completely ravaged it, has to offer,
    though it does give a glimpse into what a racist/facist thinks, that
    is, very fukin little...

    That was an intersting article I saw re: Spies to Yami. I've seen some
    mention of Haga to Duc...I don't recall where.
    I want to see Spies in MotoGP, not SBK. Is it still Corser and Xauss to BMW?

    Just my opinion.

    I think Ben deserves a (decent) shot in MGP too. ISTR something about
    Xaus and Beemer, but Corser I dunno..

    Being an idiot, or a moron is one thing and even though his elitist
    arrogance, as well as his cavalier attitude towards life and limb I
    personally find distasteful, it's really just his business, but I'll be
    dammed if I will lend credibility, or legitimacy to a racist fool by
    responding to him any further, as all it really does is give a soapbox
    to a coward and make no mistake, anyone who uses(among others) racial
    slurs (N, S & F) so freely in a eforum while hiding behind a keyboard
    is a low-life coward and little more...

    I should have provided an update - I got out of the wheelchair and
    onto crutches at the end of July. And xray at the beginning of
    September showed that the broken femur still wasn't mending, so I've
    just been into a hospital for a bone graft and other associated stuff.
    Details here : www.champ.org.uk/blog/ Shit, but it all hurts now :-/

    er, I'm no supporter of Mark, but even I know he was being satirical
    here.

    And if it's possible that made it even worse! There's never an excuse
    to slur someone's ethnicity, and the fact I had to point that out to
    you may be a cause for some introspection. Mark, among other things, is
    a racist and while you may not care to see it, it's painfully obvious
    to many over here. It's like this Neal, people who like to look down
    their noses and seriously believe their thinking more evolved, or
    better than others, very seldom, if ever are able to stop at just one
    issue. I could go on with many examples he's offered over the years,
    but I find language like that used in an e-forum extremely cowardly and
    it's simply not worth giving those kind of folks a stage, but that's
    just me...

    Bone graft? Thankfully I never had to have any, but I gotta tell ya',
    it sounds painful just saying it. Take care...
