    Ok...

    Since Dave Despain says that Suzuki is "The same thing as you can buy at your local dealer" ...

    I was thinking of buying one after they showed it came with an Ohlins rear shock in the promo piece... but I'm sure as hell not going to buy one now - it blew up after only going 53.4 miles!!

    yeah for bikes that are "stock" some must have been lemons cause those corona guys just blew by some of the lesser sponsored bikes on the banks, i mean they are putting out the same horsepower arn't they :rooleyes:

    Anyone know why Opie Caylor dropped out? He was inching his way from 20th to 18th and then dropped off the field.

    Maybe his foot was bothering him too much?

    That's what I'm guessing. Any idea what lap it was? 10th?

    Who / how's the guy that got hit by his bike in the first lap?

    My vote is that racing with a broken foot, especially in the top-20, hurts like hell [​IMG]

    Steve Rapp?
    He should be ok I hope. He hit the airfence and the bike kinda bounced up and landed just in front of him. He got pinned by the front wheel...

    The bike flew above him and the front wheel came down on him. But the horizontal momentum of the bike was mostly gone so it didn't look like the bike would have squeezed him that hard against the airfence.
