Wonder what this means for Kawi?

Cool, I wonder if this means we can expect to see a bit more Rossi advertising in the US. Beyond motorcycle mags and stuff like that. I feel like I see Monster Drink ads everywhere.

The real question is with the global recession, will anyone still be racing in motoGP besides yam and duc?

pickle.of.doom · 01-26-2009, 12:45 PM

Yes, but they will no longer be able to afford engines

I wonder what it means for Hopper. from what I've read this was kind of his "ticket" to ride... the money that monster brought. now that they've got advertising on the G.O.A.T. why would they fork over money to get John a ride when he had such a horrible year last year... my guess... they wouldn't and won't.

My guess is the chicken came before the egg. Gee Kawi is out even with our endorsement of Hopkins, who is for sure doing 2009 that we can contract right f'n now? How bout start at the top and call our way to the bottom?

Mr Lefty · 01-26-2009, 05:54 PM

well there were rumors monster was gonna pull some strings and score a ride for Hopper... as they bring alot of money... don't think anyone expected them to just sign a new rider...
