How is this a surprise? Somebody tell me one thing that the new overseers of AMA racing have done to make things better than what we had.
They consolidated superbike and supersport? I don’t know if they can take credit for that though. I do know that the 600 class is alittle more exciting to watch; or at least less predictable.
Are transcripts of these sort of things available for those of us without multimedia access?
Hi Phil–Superbike Planet has a friendly transcriber who often tackles AMA press conference recordings; I don’t see one for this particular press conference, but check that site occasionally in case she’s still working on it.
A safety car on a racetrack with motorcycles is really about some asshole controll-freak who would try to squeeze out a motorcycle rider splitting lanes in stop and go traffic on the freeway and now that he’s in a place of power to dictate power over the “out of controll bad bikers,” he’s going to assert his will in the guise of “racetrack safety”.So I sugest you put his name and address out on the web and let the public let him know that what makes a motorcycle race on a track safe, is the absense of cars being driven by brainless idiots.
