Re: [ST] Rossi unhappy with US track--So What!

[Matt Knowles <matt@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The three tracks that I've raced on, Laguna Seca, Sears Point, and 
Thunderhill, all have turns that were purposely designed to challenge 
because they were either totally blind, off camber or decreasing 
radius, or all three. That's what made riding them so much fun is 
getting to know them and seeing the improvement in the lap times.

Personally, I'd rather watch slower bikes duke it out on a more 
challenging course like Laguna, than just watch bikes fly by at nearly 
200mph down a straightaway.

Someone mentioned that there's no where to pass at Laguna. I've seen 
passes in the corkscrew, so exactly how much room do you need for a 
motorcycle?
