    Definitely fast becoming one of the characters of the racing scene, and all round good guy. You were pretty quick with your entry onto pit straight, was great to watch you there.

    If you cleaned some of the mud of your leathers and got them mended I reckon your lap times would drop markedly ...less weight & more aerodynamic
    I'll drop them off this weekend, thanks Tony

    Good shizzle gav!
    You know, we had saved you a pit, right next to us and finns happy generator...

    Wanted to pop by your place, but by the time we had packed down etc (I seem to have a knack for being close to last out the gate... Mind you, got to drool over a ncie lambo because of it )
    Then after prize giving we were too knackered!

    Love you long time anyway!

    I've seen you at close to your best before. This race meet was an average effort from you till the last race, which I throughly enjoyed. I could notice the higher corner speeds and greater leaning angle that you had then.

    I reckon with some consistant time on the bike now that you've finally got a new motor, you should be able to bring out that talent you do have on to the race track.

    Thanks buddy. I'll be going quicker this weekend coming.

    It's funny, you say that you've seen me close to my best before, cause I reckon I've got a long way to go before I'll see my best

    I was talking about your current best ability.

    As I used to say to Texmo, it is quite possible for quite a few people to be as good as Rossi if time was an unlimited factor. However the pace you learn at is the key to how talented a person is, given the fact that time is very limited in real life terms.

    So, your true potential could almost be unlimited but how much of it you can explore in this life time is important.
