You people who say that Greg Hancock is only making the numbers up in GP are laughable. He is in it because he is still in the top eight in the world, does not need wild cards like some of the so called superstars ? As for youger riders not being able to get in to GP's I do agree that there should be a better way.

If you look up Hesketh you will see that the cylinder heads and barrels from DOHC Weslake were you on a V twin road bike.

Some great photo's and history

Looking at the photo I would say the following Ivan Mauger, Greg, Bert Kingston, Dennis Gavoros, Nigel Boocock,Brian Larner (Kneeling) John Titman, Tom Shirra. HOWS THAT !

Surprised no-one has mentioned Hancock and what a good night he had. Wasn't giving an inch. Best I have seen him ride for a good while at this level. Nicki was in great form, all the pratice he had at Lonigo sure paid off.

Greg Hancock who personally invited to his testimonal in Sweden dosen't seem to think he is boring. Regarding which nationality these riders should ride for is not established until he or she has competed in a senior national championship, not where they where born. Tai was born in England,holds a british racing licence because he was not old enough to take out anything else. British fans should push for him to ride for England ! -
