I was fortunate to be at Seca for the race weekend. The race was awesome, best road race I have ever been to. Watching Nicky dominate practice and qualifing, and then lead every lap of the race was cool. Americans in first and second place, what more could you want. Edwards pass on Rossi was amazing too. However the biggest suprize to me was the sound of the GP bikes. The superbikes just sounded like louder street bikes but the GP bikes sounded more like race cars than motorcycles. Super loud and throaty.

Each manufacturer also had their GP bikes on display in their booths. A few also had older 2 stroke 500cc GP bikes on display as well. Bikes with four expansion pipes coming off them just do it for me.

Anyone else make it out there?
