Official..... Spies to WSBK Yamaha team

 I bet he does very well in his first season. Might take a race or 2 to get used to the higher HP bikes, but he adapted to MotoGP quickly. |

Now there is a WSBK combination I can really get behind and cheer for...Did I ever tell you guys about the time I was endurance racing (with/against/well on the same track as) Ben and he came up to lap me?
I don't like to reminesce that far back (02') but I really enjoy watching him ride. I had chased down a 600 on my SV at TWS and had stalked him into a braking zone, pulled inside and outbraked him with uncommon all out speed, when this crazy texan outbrakes me on the inside line, and I mean on the white line, kicks the rear out sideways and fucks off down the next straight leaving me and the bewildered 600 pilot sucking fumes...Oh the good ole days...

and Suzy signed a couple other riders. I'm sure had Suzy offered him a ride he'd have taken it... they're competitive... shit he ran 5th in Indy and was up to what 5th or 6 in Laguna. |

no suzy prob would have signed him but they may have liked matt more n saw the drama they were gonna have but ben also wanted to leave n i don't think he had any good moto gp team offers as far as good bikes/teams/mechanics so this is his stepping stone do well n he'll get the offers he wants
i didn't know he had 90% podiums n most wins fuck i remember he was always like 2 or 3 behind matt when he started now matt is salty because his 6 reigns are over n he has to take backseat for suz in the spotlight
