Ant "Rain-Man" West shines again in the wet at Indianapolis..........
It ain't no fluke and in my opinion, reinforces the general view that past performance problems rest with the bikes.
The team bosses can run around like decapitated chooks trying out different riders but should obviously focus on improving what is basically a good machine.
hey guys, writing you live from indy. westy was awesome today and i have a good feeling for the race as it is supposed to rain all weekend. gonna buy an aussie flag and show big support for westy.
the track is fine and safe, btw.
report back later.
Absolutely! Sign him up now for the 3rd Kwak bike next year. :up:Quote:

It was a pity that the grid positions had been determined during a dry QP otherwise West and Vermeulen would no doubt have been right up at the pointy end on the grid and at the end of the race.
Was a wet race if he was that good he should of been able to get up through the race field, i don`t think he`s good enough heard he maybe going to WSB.
the race conditions really conspired to hurt the wet specialists like vermin and westy. the tires were destroyed early on in a dry-ish track trying to catch up. by the time th erace was called after the rain and wind picked up all the riders were in survival mode. still, that's three straight races that westy has topped hopper, two of them in the dry.
