Doctor, Tornado, Kentucky Kid Video

Just making sure everyone knows that this video is shipping July 7th! I just ordered my copy. Its $25 + shipping, $5 if you're a cheapo like me or you can get it overnighted or something extreme. Check out the web site with trailor-

Re: Doctor, Tornado, Kentucky Kid Video

I got my copy today and watched it tonight.

It's really, really good. Not quite as slick as Faster, but great detail of every aspect leading up to, and during, the USGP of 2005. Very cool to be able to watch it with the race coming up this weekend, as I really have a much better understanding of the track and riders now.

I highly recommend the movie. For anyone that's done trackdays or racing, there are quite a few on-board examples of mistakes we make out there and how we feel about them - how one missed apex or mistake leads to another and so on. Cool stuff! Makes me want to go race or do a trackday right now!

We got it too! Finally had time to watch it and thoroughly enjoyed it and of course Nicky's a cutie which made it that much easier to enjoy.

Definitely a good movie to add to your motorcycle movie collection!

Me too, and I still haven't received it even though they billed my cc almost 2 weeks ago. Go to THE DOCTOR, THE TORNADO AND THE KENTUCKY KID and check the FAQ for info. on how to check your order status.

I'm guessing they are going to make a Faster 3 that looks at MotoGP as a whole rather than just a sharp focus on Laguna...

I like when Nicky's dad is responding to those that have ever suggested that he forced his kids to race, and he says something to the effect of:
"I never had to tell them to race. I had to tell them to brush their teeth. I had to tell them to get up and go to school. But I never had to tell them to race."

I went to the site. They'll be coming out with a longer version at the end of the year. I think I will buy then. Sounds like a good vid.

I knew he would do that. When he did that with Faster it pissed me off big time. Those that pre-ordered should have gotten the second part for free when it came out. There should be a reward for pre-ordering things, not a detriment.

When I first read about him doing this movie there was no way I would pre-order.

Mine says "Preview Edition" on the cover, and there is just the movie, no extras. I'm still glad to have it.
