    Imagine the 990s with an extra 3 years of development...

    exactly! People shouldn't assume that the 990's would have stayed the same top speed if they had continued racing these last 3 years.
    "...New Zealanders, for all their faults, have virtues that are precious: an unwillingness to be intimidated by the new, the formidable, or class systems; trust in situations where there would otherwise be none; compassion for the underdog; a sense of responsibility for people in difficulty; not undertaking to do something without seeing it through - "

    I remember watching them hit 340 at China. Looks like they no longer race there though.

    2007: 337 was fastest in warmup although only 333 was fastest in race.
    2008: All the Ducatis hit 340 down the back straight in the race.

    Which of the current tracks has the biggest straights? I reckon they should go race at monza!
