I don't think you get either the 250cc's or the 125's, which is where the real action is.

Dare I say Motogp was a bit stale last year?



The last GP I was at was Silverstone, 1981. Won by.....

Jack Middelburg who beat King Kenny on the last lap.

I bought my seats in October - you might want to get them soon - Indy holds up to 500,000, but like the first year of F1 there, I believe they've limited it to 250,000 tickets. Anywhere on the infield is OK, as you can wander from turn to turn. Even if you get crappy grandstand seats, make sure you get paddock passes to roam the infield.

I anyone's been following qualifying, this years' run will be anything but boring (unless the Yamahas blow up & the Hondas are too slow). Although, Casey won the BMW in the rain on Saturday, so he hasn't gotten fat & sloppy yet.

I really like the 'roo whistle on the back of the tailsection.
