Some pics from USGP and my experience

First of all.....WOW. MotoGP is so amazing to watch in person. TV does not do these guys justice AT ALL! The sound of the bikes and the smell of racegas....amazing.

We also had hot pit passes, so we were able to get down into the pits for the AMA races....again simply amazing to watch the teams in action. Umbrella girls were pretty hot too..... Oh ya......and I got to stand about 3 feet from Rossi.

We camped at the track, so traffic was not a huge problem, we walked most places.

Re: Some pics from USGP and my experience

Why is Rossi wearing senior citizen sun glasses?

Did you even get Sete to "flex"?
Are those sun glasses the ones with the mp3 on them?

Those girs sure are purty!

So, you just kind of peek into Spies tent and snap a couple off? That's too cool

Not sure whats up with Rossi's glasses...I kinda thought the same thing.

Pretty sure Sete looks like that all the time....and just about all the racers that I saw had those same sunglasses with the MP3 players....Oakley Thump I think.

And the cool thing about the Hot Pit passes (cold crew is what the tickets said on them)....we could pretty much walk anywhere and no one said a word....

Cold crew passes come from knowing the right people....still cost me $80 though. Basically you are a guest of the AMA.

My buddy got them from a group he knows that donated a bunch of money to the AMA contingency fund. In return, they got a bunch of these passes, which they turned around and sold to sponser something else.....kinda confusing, but I'm not complaining.....
