Road Rash MotoGP

Karma? I laughed at the puppy earlier tonight when she turned around to run (chasing a ball) and launched herself off her bed/mat which (on the hardwood floors) slipped out from under her sending her rolling. I've just picked myself up off the ground - after having the same bed/mat slide out from under me in the same hardwood floor. I swear she came out from the corner and laughed at me :S

Brilliant breakdown of the race. Grab a seat and a drink, it's a long one https://motomatters.com/analysis/2015/10/27/2015_sepang_motogp_round_up_heroes_who_h.html

One of the hotels (can't remember which) asked if we'd be having hot breakfast in the morning. I said the Victorians would - the immigrants were getting a Kellog's Variety pack to share between themselves.

Am booked in now for the Friday and the Saturday (won't be able to do the extra day - work calls) Only 5 rooms left at Tumut

Odds are definitely in Lorenzo's favour. If it's a clean race and Rossi manages to take the championship they he'll regain a fair bit of the respect he lost from me the last race. Just hope the championship is won on the track, not with either (or both) of them crashing out.

For Rossi to take the title: Lorenzo/Rossi result for next race would need to be at least as below: 1/2 2/3 3/6 4/9 5/11 I can see Rossi making it back to 6th realistically, so Lorenzo would need to be either 1st or 2nd to feel safe. Knowing that - it will put a heap of pressure on him, especially as he sees Rossi whittling down the riders ahead of him each time he passes his pit board. If Marquez, Pedrosa. Iannone or others are able to keep pace with Lorenzo and not let him get the break then he's going to have to keep pushing hard - fighting not only the riders with him, but also the one far behind. One thing Rossi's always been great at is making his way through lesser riders to head back to the points.I doubt he'll have a chance of making it to the leading pack, but if there's only 3 riders in the front group, a couple behind that are out of touch with them and then the rest, then I reckon 6th would be about where he'd end up. With that - it would take every single variable to continue working in his favour - none of the riders actually racing with Lorenzo crashing out (unless they all do) and at least 2 of those willing to fight all the way to the flag and prevent Lorenzo from winning. Pedrosa, Iannone I can see doing that - MM, not so much lol. Wet race would mix it up greatly, as will the willingness of the back of the grid to let Rossi do his own race or wanting to mix it up with him. Can definitely see the likes of Miller deciding to race as Rossi catches and end up coming a cropper - potentially taking Rossi with him. Alternatively - there's also a few who can give Rossi a helping hand on his climb through the field - a nice tow down the straight, out of the way through corners etc. Natural attrition will also clear the path a little for him. If Lorenzo can get the break and do what he does so well then it'll be all over after the 1st 5-7 laps.

Would (with it being a "proper" project) be more likely to be a bit more "professional", meaning well defined roles, fixed hours and better communication channels? I.e. - allow you to relax a bit and focus on what you're paid to rather than run yourself haggard on a less organised project?

Rossi's lost the plot in the last week - don't think he'll be racing next year

Fark me - rest of the race doesn't matter. Think I've lost all respect I had for Rossi in that 2 seconds. Racing was f*cking awesome up til when he decided to push MM off the track - Will be very surprised if either point or grid penalties don't finish the season already. Am almost hoping both.

Reminds me that I need to tidy mine

That's some tidy cabling and install - leaves me to shame

It's the universal currency for "mates rates" If a job would be worth 2 slabs then they'd better be helping you with the work.

Are single spinners welcome?

Isn't she the one you dropped the scooter on? Think you have more to be asking forgiveness for (ignore if I'm thinking of the wrong couple)

When I moved the office/business to my house I had a mate come in and rewire network, phone and CCTV points throughout. He still hasn't sent me a bill (10 months later) Am hoping he doesn't see this thread - I gave him a slab

You and your new mate should come on this cruise - meet some more like minded drivers

ROSSI :D :D :D Bumping Lorenzo off the front row in the final moments of qualifying - perfect Pedrosa - farking awesome lap to take pole.

Just a quick google, but it seems as if they're working on them Torque curve seems a bit strange to me (but I really have no idea) http://www.fftec.com/item/1835/FFTEC_8374_Max_Performance_Turbo_System.html edit: another one http://www.ecoboostmustang.org/forum/mustang-ecoboost-performance/4529-2015-ford-mustang-ecoboost-tuned-over-400-hp.html edit2: 11 second Ecoboost Mustang - seems it's been stripped bare to get it to that time though https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C1Ad6ez4fTI#t=21

We moved on from there. He removed the sticker and we're now talking about bike we had prior to puberty

Is it constant, every time Wilko - or random, with no rhyme nor reason that you can work out?
