    2007 MNZ Manual of Motocycle Sport. hmm. Some of the things you read in there seem a little different to whats actually happening out in the field. Its a guide.

    Well after 6 wins from six starts, you'd have to bet on Buggie wouldn't ya?

    Of course, he hasn't had to contend with the McNair factor yet. See ya at Minefeild Robbie

    Ask Neil and Dave how much of a shock Mr McNair is in for unless he's learnt how to ride fast

    Good question Gav, as he'd be still bloody competitive and it would be bloody interesting.

    But, it won't happen.
    For one reason, it would be no fun for Slighty to be riding with that BIG target on his back.
    It's OK to disagree with me. I can't force you to be right.

    That little Ocker is serious , if the rest aren't within a second I'm afraid they're just making up the numbers. Our only hope is CS with the home track advantage...... G.

    You'd never go hungry with Nigella Gaz.
    If it weren't for flashbacks...I'd have no memory at all..

    Its the two ockers, Jones and Bugden. Both are better than the best we can throw at them. I wouldn't be surprise if Bugden wins the remaining 4 to make it 10 out of 10. If he doesn't I think Jones will be the only one capable of beating him.

    Craig Shirrifs is doing awsome, and no dis respect meant by this comment, but Andrew is over 40 years old now, and has been doing this game for over 23 years, maybe the final % off hunger is not there any more?

    I agree re: Stroud. Quite surprised so many chose him to win. Awesome rider, but priorities seem to change with age.

    Then again, I chose Sam Smith! So can't really comment on others' choices.

    Bugden is riding with confidence, Jones is a revelation & doing very well on the Pirellis, Stroud appears to be struggling with set-up & his point n squirt style is not pulling the lap times, Craig is getting into the corners faster than any of them but looks to be chasing set up for grip coming out, Cudlin i thought would go better than he has - but dont discount him to mix it with the front three in the last two rounds. Looks like we wont get to see Sam unfortunatly with his injury.
    I still want any kiwi to win it (& its still possible), - its just statistically looking tough.

    Interesting points Glen , not wanting it, but I wonder if a little rain might change the finishing order of the front guys ? Gaz.

    Would be quite ironic, stunning weather in the south, miserable & wet in the north.........

    Anyone that does well on Pirellis has to be a revelation.

    A few seasons ago it was said he was over the hill and not the force he once was maybe its time he had a crack at F3 or is he not old enough yet?.

    Common mistake for newbies "Slow in Fast out"

    No discount from me.

    I thought it was the suberbikes allergy to him. It coughed him off.

    We could offer Robbie Bugden New Zealand citizenship. We are short of skilled people.

    Sorry if Ive unintentionally offended anyone but like everything else on KB I can't be taken too seriously.
