nope... 1 i'm room'n with Rae... you guys get OSP.
2. I sleep on any car trip over an hour.... but when I'm driving I can drive 30 hrs and be fine. (I'm like death warmed over the next day though) 3. you can stop every 2hrs to stretch when you get gas and piss then! just use the summer to build up your seat time. you'll probably be able to ride 2x as far as I will when I show up in Sept. |

That is the ONLY reason Nascar buying AMA is a good thing....

I don't know, I'm not sure that the standardized equipment rules aren't a good thing.
They're a double edged sword. On one hand, the racing should be better, instead of Mladin/Spies and company running away and making it a battle for third. But with the new rules it might slow down bike development, which may or may not be a bad thing, privateers having to buy a new bike every two years to stay competitive has to be a pain in the ass. I think the biggest drawback might be spec tires. Which would slow down tire development. Unfortunately I don't see how the rules changes will make a big difference without a spec tire. Without a spec tire AMA Superbike would be a lot like MotoGP, the team with the best tires wins. I guess we'll just wait and see. ![]() |

I think it will be better for the privateers... and a slow in bike development wouldn't be a bad thing... just think.. your bike not being obsolete in 2 years!

![]() I just recall an article that Jordan was quoted stating he can spend millions and still not get the parts Mladin and Spies have because Suzuki doesn't make the parts available.... so, it really isn't about money, it's all about machine.

Hopefully with these new rules it wont be about the bike, or the money, or the tires, it will be about the RIDER! (Which unfortunately may blow Mladin's already astronomical ego to unheard of Biaggi-like proportions!) |
