    Corser gives BMW its first WSBK pole!

    And didn't just set pole, he out qualified Biaggi in SP3 by a full 0.5 seconds.

    That's a massive gap in WSBK qualifying terms.

    Here's hoping for two action packed races tonight in contrast to the boring shit that was the Dutch TT last night.

    As Spies proved last year there aint much fight in the WSBK field but given the 0.5 gap if max can shove it under Corser in the early laps expect to see him fold like a cheap deck of cards.

    Oh I doubt vey much Corser can keep the Bee Emm at the front for more than a couple of laps but I can almost gaurantee the racing will be more entertaining the the GP.

    I fell asleep, woke up with 2 laps to go and saw all I needed to see. Mint!

    where opinion holds more weight than fact.

    It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.

    It's going to be hard to dislodge the Roman from the front now. Gear cam drives and 3 to 5 more neddies make it even faster. What a great birthday present, a double at home at age 39 !!!

    Giday Gaz, been awhile. It's surprising the other teams haven't protested the gear drive. It's only sorta legal and certainly not in the spirit of WSBK where the bikes are supposed to resemble what you can buy in the shop.

    The bloody Aprillia is a fraud anyhow. Built a racer and then they made soft versions and homologated them.

    (Excuse my Aprilia rant - it's probably due to my intense dislike of Max. )
    It's OK to disagree with me. I can't force you to be right.
