Catch the Eslick pass at Laguna?

Dear Lord Eslick is fucking badass. The outside pass at Laguna that overtook Disalvo and Beaubier while sliding the whole bike at the same time Beaubier was sliding the bike was absolutely awesome racing.

They seriously need to ditch all this electonic traction crap and let the tires and wheels spin.

The pass is at 2:55-3:05.

Those are the same hacks that do the commentating for US WSBK races on Speed. Much better to watch those races on mute.

NO idea how they landed those jobs.

The English guys do, except when they race in the US. Then we get the c-squad commentators.

Ralph Shaheen must have a lifetime contract with Speed, or something. That guy does commentating on everything.

I usually watch the BBC or Eurosport coverage of MotoGP and WSBK, so I haven't heard Speed coverage in years. Wowsa.
