Heck, can you ask an easier question??
I would actually love a local lad to win... like Vermuelin, or Broc Parks, BUT Not sure they are "Local" enough anymore....
Corser or Pitt might get the BMW up there..... Of course Haga is always going to be up there... BUT... Well, it is Nitro Norri... and that also means he may not be finishing :doh:

So... I think i will just sit back and watch with interest....

Oh, alright then..... Jonathon Rea both races..... GO Hanspree Ten Kate Honda!

Biaggi is out to show hes the man , i have been watching his website and he is not blowing his own trumpet but has clearly dedicated his aims to winning and silencing his knockers,(im not one of them ) . He loves the Island and apart from tyre issues has always been a contender and now hes been on the bike long enough to know where to set it from.
Other than Max , Haga will have his hands full with his team mate i believe, he has lost his golden oricle and will suffer for it.

Its gotta be Haslam, Suzuki always do well at PI, and he has been strong over the break with alot to prove and the head says Biaggi.

I do not think max will win it there..

Rae does have a great shot at winning

They Yamaha boys I think will be a strong contender more toward cal tho.

Haga I see him winning one but not both.

Haslam does not have a chance sorry.

I hope your crystal ball needs a polish mate, I would love to put money on it. Last year Haslam was 6th in the first race and 3rd in the second on the stiggy mule.

Have to go with the Aprilla Sue, Max will be the man this year, watched him last year and is a totaly different Max from years gone buy. Its a very good chance for him this year to win the World Championship , but its going to be a good battle with the rest of them, Haga ,Rea, Haslam they also are good contenders.
Roll on next weekend. I will be up at "Lukey Heights" :woohoo::woohoo:

How about a online fun bet.. I will bet 1000(fun money) that haslam fights just for the podium. and another 1000(fun money) that he does not win a race or come within 6 seconds of the winning bike.

Crutchlaw will win one and crash in the other.

GO Hanspree Ten Kate Honda!

That doesn't really have the same ring as "Go the 'canes!" or "Canterbryyyyyyy!", does it?

crutchlow to podium one race.

I think Crutchlow is going to be the newcomer to watch this year - just not quite sure if he'll be able to win first time out.
A podium wouldn't surprise.

Ive just set up a league for all the kiwi biker folks.

It gives you 10 million to spend on 6 riders, two from each of these Moto GP, WSBK, and British SBK
Its off the UK site MCN

If you want to join just set up your team and go to join private league then enter league PIN: 1634

Hopefully this will be a bit of a laugh for the whole season

I know what you mean it came down to the ride and the price, would be great if we could get the coverage over here.

Yea bsb is the tricky one alright.

They get 2 races per meeting like superbike so points can build up pretty quick.

You can go for the best e.g Haga, Rea, Rossi, Stoner, Hodgson, Brookes or try balance your team with mediocore but consistent guys

Yea that, and GSE racing ain't there no more, as they seem to be a sure bet most years.

You could go with a balancing act or the best, or take my approach and pick guys who are good at qatar or have been fast in pre season testing. then drop them. mwahahaha,i shoulda been a team manager.

but back on topic WSBK is testing again over the weekend i thinK??

Don't worry about not knowing about BSB... I know freak all about Soccer, but leading all my mates in the Jimungo Premiership competition....

I followed the whole BSB season last year and it is mint!

I downloaded all the races from www.racing-underground.com but you will need to find someone with a spare invitation code as mine have all been used up.

Tip: Stuart Easton is going to be the man this year.
