I also ordered one of the last sapphire black E60 M5 left in the US; it might actually be the last one. As for the "Ring" Taxi, I'm out of luck there. None left. Can you still get it in Hong Kong? If so, what's the cost in USD?

Crashing and running out of gas is a little different. Doesn't matter, Nicky is getting into form in time for Laguna.
Its all good. I am still celebrating Nicky's championship from 2006.
Although Pedrosa's midget punk ass tried to ruin it for him, by taking him out of the Portuguese Grand Prix .
I am waiting for Nicky to pay back Pedrosa with two races left, crushing Pedorsa's championship dreams. What goes around comes around.
Rumors are Nicky is heading to Ducati next year.

As for Nicky going to Ducati,.........well........... the only one who is able to ride that bike is Stoner. The rest is competing for last place (look at Melandri, who is a very talented rider).
So for Hayden's career I don't think it will do him any good. But it probabely might be the only way to stay in Moto GP for him.

I don't think Nicky will even be able to get that close to Pedrosa, but if there is one place, it might be Laguna Seca.
As for Nicky going to Ducati,.........well........... the only one who is able to ride that bike is Stoner. The rest is competing for last place (look at Melandri, who is a very talented rider).
So for Hayden's career I don't think it will do him any good. But it probabely might be the only way to stay in Moto GP for him.

Yes, Melandri is aweful on that Ducati. US will have 4 riders over there, when Ben Spies gets his full ride. Not bad. A lot better than we are doing in F1. So what is Nicky's reputation overseas, it seems like he has a lot of haters?

He needs to run into turn one with no brakes and just plow into that midget.

But still, they are all talented riders, some have even more talent than others. I think Rossi is the king, but I cheer for Stoner.
This is me having some track-fun..!!

Nicky probabely does have some fans overhere, but there aren't that many. He was just lucky to get that championship in 2006. Ever since no successes. And that for a rider with factory Honda material. I actually think Edwards is the better American thesedays, doing a great job on a customer-Yamaha.

Rossi is King, no doubt. Love that guy. That helmet he was using for little while, with his face on the top was great.
