curse? what curse? disalvo takes the 200 on a ducati?!

the 2011 daytona 200 miler was won by privateer jason disalvo on board a latus motors racing ducati 848EVO(rick, this is not an atv by the way), breaking what some have come to call the ducati curse, and in his first race on the bike. the racing gnome looked quite happy after the race, good luck to jason and his crew, with no race in southern califronia this year, we wont be able to say good ride in person.
word from the guys at ducati usa is "we are on our way to disneyland, bbl".
