For that reason alone I hold Carl Fogarty in high regard. He broke the record in 92 or 93 and held it for 7 years. That's impressive. That's a 123 mph lap on machinery from 18 years ago. The 130 mph mark was just broken in the last couple years.
I give Rossi all the credit in the world (even more to Haga) but the TT is the real test in my eyes...
