Spent an extended weekend at Road America. Saw it all from different views: Marshalled corner 8 Friday, in the paddock and pits Friday through Sunday and even had a media pass so we entered the closed press room. Got to chat with them all including Mladin, DuHamels ( even Yvon ), Zemke, and many others. Way cool and what a race.
Here we saw the dominant new CBR1000's raw power. Mladin tried hard, but with Miguel on board the new bike, he was awesome. Zemke may have won Sunday races if we did not have the negative but spectacular crashes in turn 8. Yes, we saw that up close.
We were 12 and we will be back next year even though for us its a 750 mile drive from Arkansas. Worth every dime! :)
