Well I think it is great to have Geico as a sponsor. They are into many forms of motor sports and with the push they have going in the motorcycle industry this is a pretty natural choice for them.

Jay, I think you're spouting without knowing the facts. From what I understand, Torco had met all their financial obligations to the team, despite some health issues for their owner. But the opportunity to hook up with Geico appeared, and it worked out well for everyone. Torco, Factory Connection, and Geico.

The Gecko? On the front of the jersey. Who do you think is running in the navigator seat?
