....did i hear u say we've been there already and the links don't work? well....that's because y'all were missing the secret ingredient. Now here's the "secret handshake":

1. Open Windows Media Player
2. Go to File -> Open URL and open link
3. Let the video stream til the end.
4. When it's finished go to File -> Save Media As and save the file. It will think that the file is 3.99gigs but don't worry bout that. Its just MS way of saying "Gotcha!".

You could also use a streaming program to download the video. I'm using Cocsoft Streamdown (i swear that's what the program is called). I'm not sure why but not all streaming programs seem to be able to download the files. I haven't done much research into it yet. If anyone finds a better way of getting these videos please PM me. Thanks.

ps: do u guys still want to watch the Mugello race?

Missed MotoGP lastnite?

Why yes - I did.
But I taped it, and watched it this morning before I left for work.
Sure I was a bit late, and had to lanesplit, race, hoon, and generally misbehave (and was still late anyway), but it was worth it.

Man, it was good! (And no, I'm not going to spoil it for anyone else.)
And the ride in wasn't bad either (apart from worrying about running out of petrol...)

Think your code for the 125 race from Catalunya is missing a digit, its usually a 5 digit number at the end, is four digits correct?

hey guys this question might be in the wrong place but its like an itch that needs scratching. Are motoGp bikes 500cc 2stroke bikes or 1000cc 4stroke? I have been told/read different things about this. Also watching and listing to sunday's race some sounded 2stroke but others sound very 4stroke-ish. Also do you guys know what hp these things are putting out?

they used to be 500cc 2-strokes, but are now 990cc 4-strokes. They're a mixture of inline fours, v-fours and v-fives, but generally they're tuned to give power strokes like a V-twin, hence the strange sound. F'rinstance, the Hondas are RC211Vs, with a V5 engine (three small and two bigger pistons), the Ducatis are V4s, and the M1 Yamahas are an inline 4.
