Sorenson to get a Valencia 250GP wildcard entry?

All I can say is:

Hell yeah!!!

Kick ass, Rocky! I hope ya'all get in there. Ride the AMA office hard to make sure they don't, ahem, misplace your notification like DiSalvo.

Erik,

Thanks for the encouragement (and bratwurst). The tough thing about planning this (gee, I've learned lots of new things this year), is that they only inform you 30 days before the event. It's kind of like having a baby, you wait nine months and then rush to the hospital (probably leaving your torque wrench at home). If we do get over there, I promise to represent the good ole USA in the image it richly deserves (plaid pants, camera around my neck, thinking everyone understands English as long as I speak it LOUDLY...) We will see...

Thanks,

Just as long as you wear cheeseheads on the podium, my life will be complete.

(Well, almost complete...I hear good things about female contortionists. Hmmm...)

Hey, if you do go and I send you a check will you pick me up some MotoGP knicknacks? James got me a sweet Rossi shirt and I'm thinking I need more cool swag like that.

 

Erik,

Yes, If I go I will grab you a t-shirt. It's funny, I'm at Mid-Ohio and this guy is selling all kinds of WGP WSB stuff. I look at a Rossi shirt that he has and he tells me its $60. I told him I was not trying to be rude, but I had bought an almost identical shirt on the street in Italy for much less. How much? $9 He asked me if I would pack my suitcase full the next time!

DOH!! I should'a thought of that!

 

Which is exactly why I want you to snag me one when you're over there!

Just let me know what I owe you, 'k? Or I can send you a check before you go.

Woohooo! A new way to fund Team Stargel. Run a booth o' goodies from Europe. Have Aprilia pack 'em in the boxes with parts shipments.

Re: go chuck

Mike,

In that case, can you explain the 'safety' game to me?

safety game?

Hey Rocky! congrats to you and chuck on your guy's AMA championship. Now I want you guys to go to Europe and spank some Euro ass, on the track and in the Red Light District (hahahah).

As for the "safety game", I do not know what that is. I was not buddy buddy with Chuck, he was a pretty boy in junior high and high school that got all the girl, and my group of friends were just a bunch of trouble makers I wished we got as many girls as chuck. I ran into Chuck at Pikes Peak and talked to him for the first time in 13 years. It was great talking about old times.

Tell Chuck Mike Lee say's Hi. Also tell Chuck that I still keep in touch with some of our high school buddies (and they say hi too. Good luck to you guys man.

PS: have chuck email me if you get a chance. Being this is my first year of road racing I have some questions to ask him. Maybe I should just call him, since he did give me his phone numbers.

Mike
