This sunday dudes, MotoGP opening round with it's WORLDS FIRST night race.
Take a look at this video of testing to see the sparks and listen to the sound.

It looks so much cooler and somehow more real at night. Very cool to be able to see their eyes.

Gonna be one hell of a race!

beyond awesome...

i'll make a soft prediction: the Michelin tires will actually hold together in the cooler weather. So no embarrasing Bridgestone podium sweep this round.

i love riding under city lights at night, so imagine how nice it must be to race under them.

Sweet, I have to remember to watch this race.

That's going to be so sick. I can't wait to see it. Every downshift is going to result in flames that are even more visible than usual. The hottness.

Speed TVs website says it'll be on Sunday at 6 pm EST.

I'll try this again- anyone got a crapload of bandwidth and an ftp I could post races on? The download thread on olden twf was a hit, I'd enjoy posting races and ebooks here.
If you would want to delete them after each week that would be fine, races are usually 500 mb - 1.2 gigs. I download the eurosport feed which has better coverage and better commentary than speeds. Also has prerace and postrace analysis.

Yeah, I like seeing their focus in their eyes too. I got a sick pic of Hopper on my desktop and you can just see the focus.
