If Westy can find so much grip in the wet, why the hell can't he do it in the dry?????

coz the bike is a pig and behaves differently as well with increased grip n speed that you get in the dry..the package is no good. westy is the difference in the wet, dunno how, but no matter the bike..he ends up near the pointy end. same with Vermeulen, he isnt happy with the Suzuki, qual in 14th, then puts it on the podium.

gotta love wet races...the great leveler where the rider truly makes a difference.
