They played the clip where he was appealing that he wasn't too old and decrepit 
to race at Bonneville.  Guess they'd never met any of us!

Hopkins was on Leno's show last week - Leno was pumped about a "bike
movie"!. He had already seen it, and enjoyed it a lot. Can't remember which
clip they played.
The commercial for the flick has been in steady rotation on Speed Channel
lately - saw it several times during the Barrett-Jackson shenanigans.
Can't find any "coming soon" listings for "Indian" here in Wichita - maybe
the theater owners figure nobody in Kansas wants to see it (they'd be
wrong!).

Also, KT - don't forget a Servo power feed for the table in "X", and get
good R8 collets. Clamp sets are easy to find, it's the end mills and drills
that will cost you big time! Have fun making chips, OK?
