Meh, Super X...
Just a bunch of punk kids in arenas going around boring and uninspiring tracks... They don't come across any rocks or deeply entrenched tree roots, i tell you! Oh, they're all just a bunch of soft nanny's... 'Oh look at me, I broke every bone of my body when I did some silly stunts on the way to the finishline!' Uhm, what's this thread about anyway?

Any chance of him going road racing? Some of our best guys (and others) have come from dirt bikes: Gobert? Edwards?

i reckon highest paid & highest earner are 2 different things - if that makes sense
my order would go along the lines of - lleyton hewitt, mark webber, chad reed, stuart appleby/adam scott... but, i know nothing about earnings as i earn jack $hit |

Mark didnt make much from his time at Jag..
He earnt nothing his year at Minardi (Except for his $100,000 per annum Renault Wage) His two years at Jag were on about $1,000,000 for 2003 and $2,500,000 for 2004 Williams is paying Mark Webber about $9,000,000 Million next year to race for them. |

I think Greg Normans earnings derive more from his Golfing Resorts and Property Development then the money he gets from losing tournament after tournament..
Isnt Kewell on about 20 Million Euros a year ?? |
