Anyone watch both races today. Holy crap! Some insane racing. Unfortunately race 2 didn't end very well with both BMW's being punted by Jonny Rea. Good to see them go 1,2 in race one, finally getting their first win. But this is for sure the best road racing in the world right now. 4 bikes in race 1 and 5 bikes in race 2 all nose to tail.

Can't wait for the US race in 2 weeks in Salt Lake City.

Amazing race...I was really impressed with the KAWI....

The thing about WSB is that its like college football to the NFL

college football has so much more heart, drive, and risk it all attitude than the GP. Currently WSB is based upon production bikes and they have to be homologated before they can run the bike in the WSB league. Right now they have to have sold 3,000 of the bike for the streets before its allowed to be run in WSB. They are all production based, where as the motoGP has much more techically advanced RACE built bikes, faster and considerably more updated technology. Currently WSB is about 3-5 years behind the GP in technology used on the bikes.

And with all that tech, they're still only about 2-4 seconds a lap faster and no faster in a straight line than WSB, and WSB produce 10 times better races. ;) Don't get me wrong, I love MotoGP. But they need to seriously do something about closing up the racing and making for some actual battles. And I don't think the CRT stuff is it unless ALL the teams were CRT.
