You make it sound like we don't.... I know many more that ride than pose.

Hell, at least that desmo died at the track rather than getting backed over by a soccer mom while the owner was on an espresso run.

OK, fair enough. But, do you have eight road courses around you within a few hour's drive? Oak Hill, Texas World Speedway, MotorSport Ranch, Eagles Canyon, Harris Hill Road, Mercedes Sugarland Ranch, GrandSport Speedway, Driveway Austin...

I won't argue that the Italian market certainly has it's poseurs and squids. There are enough out there to make the stereotype stick. I can think of two in Austin that have chicken strips on their Desmo and 1098R's that make me cry.

But, I wouldn't think that ratio is even close around here.
