CN III VOICES L E T T E R S T O T H E E D I T O R "One can't help but feel badly for Crutchlow, Dovi, the Espargaro brothers and Marquez, but that's racing!" Rossi I've been watching [road rac- ing] since King Kenny Roberts in 1978 and will probably stop watching when Valentino Rossi is gone. F1 did away with most electronic aids and MotoGP keeps adding them. I would like to see all electron- ics gone. Go back to pure racing and the man with the biggest balls wins. Tom Deline Via The Internet Catalunya MotoGP Great to see the Yamaha duo of Jorge Lorenzo and Valentino Rossi sweep the top two positions and to see Dani Pedrosa back on the podium! One can't help but feel badly for Crutchlow, Dovi, the Espargaro brothers and Marquez, but that's racing! Marence Pierce Via The Internet Shows Are Great Someone complained about the coverage of the actual [MotoAmerica] races, but the show itself is great on CBS Sports. This is the first year we have had professional on- board video. High production editing, graphics package, track primer, drone, inter- views, etc., it's a big improve- ment. And I never heard Colin [Edwards] so excited—oh wait, that's the British guy. Scott Gilbert Santa Barbara, CA Honda RC213 V-S This thing is a toy for the egos of those who are over endowed financially. How can this machine possibly matter at that cost? If every one that was manufactured accumu- lates 2000 miles a year riding total, I would be surprised. Good grief, what is going on at Honda? From goofy Furys, NCs, CTXs, slow MX racers, Marquez slumping, virtually no presence in any superbike racing, Sochiro Honda must be rolling over in his grave. Cheryll Green Wurst Via The Internet Its performance will have to be light years ahead of what other brands are offering, which for the price, I don't think it will— fun to look at, though. When are they going to update the CBR in World Superbike? They have been beating that dead horse for too long. Jim Clausen Via The Internet A showpiece for Honda, as their development and manufacturing costs for a very limited release, cannot match the high price. It's not some- thing that you would want to race, though. I can already see Tom Cruise and Jay Leno putting their applications in for this bike.
