Default Official MotoGP (et al) Laguna Seca Race Thread ~~|SPOILER WARNING|~~

Just because I know someone is going to mess up the thread if we don't have one first.

I'm watching the races on Tivo delay so now I know what thread to avoid.

It's actually hotter than than it is in Nova today. That's what those guys get for going without us.

There have been some decent commercials on speed. The subway one was good and the nextel one was funny.

They said it was a "barn burner" so I don't know what you're talking about.

Look at the squid riding without a helmet.

Great win for Nicky and I want him to win the championship but not due to Rossi's mechanical problems.

HAHHA....I actually got a pic with him. It was pretty random. Did you guys see Ian Ziering (Steve from 90210)? Wanted to take a pic with him but was too slow

Idk what's with all the people saying it was a boring race, and only the first few laps were good. Hayden didn't even take the lead until half way through the race, Rossi was battling up the field, Pedrosa was putting down lightning fast laps, and Vermuelen was trying to hold everyone off...I thought it was pretty exciting.
