I see nothing!!

 

It's a pretty poorly edited bunch of clips of Mick Doohan racing (? - I guess: hard to tell the players w/o a dance card when they're all wrapped up in leathers, helmets & eyesore sponsor's graphics - this ain't VMC racing folks!) all set to Queen's 'Princes of the Universe' for soundtrack.

 

Still a great song, even 25 years after the movie they wrote it for [Highlander - the first, fun one, not the sequels which were completely shite] was released. Hey, ol' Sean Connery is still kickin' around: I wonder if they'll do a special 25th anniversary commemorative release on BluRay to cash in? I'd almost be interested in that, if they fluffed it up w/ some extras like cast interviews, documentaries about its cult following, etc.

Doohan and the 500 2-stroke NSR...pretty vicious machines. No traction control, and a powerband so narrow it was hardly rideable. Awesome stuff. Lots of high sides!

Doohan was the man in them good ol´ 2-stroke days! Second to none...

I watch some of the old races on one of the 2 zillion tv-channels I have via Canal Digital. Fun stuff!
