<p>The 2nd Annual <a href="http://www.wirednj.com">Wired Electronics</a> Car and Bike Show takes place during Linden, NJ&#8217;s street fair. 7 or so blocks in the center of Linden were shut down not only for the car and bike show, but there were sidewalk sales for the local businesses, pizza and donut eating contest, music and carnival rides. It was a fun family event and everyone should try to come out to this next year!</p>

<p>New season means new bikes, new livery, new excitement. Thats what were unveiled when MotoGP teams touchdown at Sepang International Circuit last February. They came to test their new machine ahead of 2010 season that will kick off in April.</p>
<p><span id="more-439"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center"><a href="http://www.thespeedlounge.com/sl/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/sl-11.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-441" src="http://www.thespeedlounge.com/sl/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/sl-11.jpg" alt="" width="605" height="403" /></a></p>
<p>Superstar Valentino Rossi is in dominating form, setting the bechmark for other riders with fastest time in each of last month 4 days of testing.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><a href="http://www.thespeedlounge.com/sl/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/Picture-549.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-442" src="http://www.thespeedlounge.com/sl/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/Picture-549.jpg" alt="" width="605" height="403" /></a></p>
<p>He even managed to break Sepang lap time record for a MotoGP bike, clocking 2min 0.271sec, 0.247sec faster than the previous record he set back in October&#8217;s Malaysian Grand Prix.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><a href="http://www.thespeedlounge.com/sl/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/sl-26.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-443" src="http://www.thespeedlounge.com/sl/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/sl-26.jpg" alt="" width="605" height="403" /></a></p>
<p>Here we see Rossi and teammate Jorge Lorenzo unveiling their new bikes of Team Fiat Yamaha ahead of the test session.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><a href="http://www.thespeedlounge.com/sl/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/z-8.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-444" src="http://www.thespeedlounge.com/sl/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/z-8.jpg" alt="" width="605" height="403" /></a></p>
<p>At the end of the test days Team Marlboro Ducati looks to be the strongest challenger for Team Fiat Yamaha, with riders Casey Stoner and Nicky Hayden finished 2nd and 3rd on the time sheet.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><a href="http://www.thespeedlounge.com/sl/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/sl-03.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-445" src="http://www.thespeedlounge.com/sl/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/sl-03.jpg" alt="" width="605" height="403" /></a></p>
<p>Stoner consistent riding put him 2nd in all test sessions, just letting Rossi knows he&#8217;s not far behind.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><a href="http://www.thespeedlounge.com/sl/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/sl-81.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-446" src="http://www.thespeedlounge.com/sl/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/sl-81.jpg" alt="" width="605" height="403" /></a></p>
<p>American Nicky Hayden had to endure some early mechanical problem, but managed to overcome the setback to set the 3rd best times on the last day of testing.</p>
