Nice ride, and glad to see you avoided major trouble in the get together in the 2nd set.

I love the commentary on the GP's. I watched a lot of the early to mid 90's motovideo season recaps and waited for the "wasn't to be" and "make an impression" comments from the guys doing the voice work. That was quite enjoyable.

That was one nasty looking track! Come back to the US for another run at the boys here...

Great ride Marc. You certainly looked like a man on a mission.

Well done Marc! That track is amazing! Is it open to the public? If so, it would be well worth a trip to visit my relatives in Veldhoven!!

BTW. Veldhoven is close to Lierop. Dunno exactly but must be no more then a 20 minute drive.
