They moved the finish line after qualifications. Danny OConnor was winning his heat, passed the old line, stood up waved his arms in victory and got passed by two guys before the actual finish.

Very hard to live down.

That's why they have rider's meetings. They announced it to everyone. It's a drag that some people didn't catch it. Danny was not alone.

Rob should also be credited with organizing and locking-down the venue.
And yay, racing his ass off. Thanx to all the volunteers too!

What a great race. See you next year!
