Last year's MotoGP champ Nicky Hayden may have had a difficult 2007 season, but his struggles might ultimately make for good television: “The Kentucky Kid” will premiere on Friday, November 16 at 10pm ET/PT on MTV.
The 2 hour movie special picks up with the last two races of 2006, and if successful, could introduce MotoGP racing to a new crop of future fans.
We're not sure if it will be as riveting as Faster or The Doctor, the Tornado and the Kentucky Kid, but we're certainly willing to give it a shot; set your TIVOs or tune in to check out Hayden's late night TV appearance.

There’s a number of things he’s got on most of the rest of us…
1 – He IS cool….
2 – He can ride better than any of us…
3 – He is THE class act of the entire MotoGP grid.
If anyone missed the show, you can view it online on the MTV website.
