Expect Lenny Hale in Daytona Sportbike to get into the top 10. Also, my buddies at Garage Endeavors will be sponsoring Cameron Beaubier & JD Beach in Supersport. And keep an eye out for our own Powerslide representative, Luke Luciano (Noodlerizer). Practice 1 9509:Picture 3.png]

The race is back to Speed TV this week. Sunday 12pm est for the Lites and 1PM for the SX. Next week I think it goes back to CBS for Anaheim 3. I think I shall sleep in tomorrow morning and watch SX in bed, do nothing for the rest of the day and sit on the couch for 4 hours and watch the...

I just checked my TV listings and it looks like CBS is showing a 700 club telethon instead of the race. is this just in Texas or is it everywhere? anybody know if it can be seen online. thank you!

The Soup has John Hopkins testing with M4 Suzuki soon and making a return to the team for 2010. Check out the article here. So, is he bailing on FB Corse then?

Bruce Sjernstrom is resigning his position as marketing director and director of road racing activities. His departure is important b/c he is joining Monster Energy. I think the move may have a positive impact on Monster's sponsorship operations in global motorcycle racing properties. LINK

AMA has finally decided to go to Laguna this year. I was hoping that they wouldn't because MotoGP would have brought Moto2/125cc to fill the gap. Oh well, DMG will get a bit of my money this year. http://motogpworld.net/2010/01/ama-p...medium=twitter

LINK This would be a huge shot in the arm. As long as no one gets killed by the pace car this year.

LINK Maybe some reason to be optimistic. At least 1 track seems to have some reason to believe they will be hosting an AMA event.

I believe the AMA is in crisis mode. I have some insider info that AMA is trying to extricate DMG. I was asked to withhold mentioning it, but after reading this on superbikeplanet, I figured I'd share a heads up with you guys. LINK

I'm not exactly a fan of JRP's, but he's been suspended and I don't know what he's done now. LINK

LINK <u>THE GOOD NEWS</u> Clutch starts for all classes. All flags will be moved to ground level unless otherwise impossible. Pace vehicles will only be used to restart races after a red flag. Two way radios will be mandatory in certain classes and the AMA will be developing an early warning...

I was just going to let this weekend slide by b/c there really isn't much going on in terms of the championships. Cardenas is out, Mat has a lock on SBK. But then I saw this LINK Please examine this timing sheet and tell me how many riders you see within 1 second of the leader after final...

The voices in the booth alluded to the safety concerns of the weekend; Russell frequently touched on the quality of the track surface. Many bikes seemed to twitch and buck, an indicator of a poor racing surface? Also, Sheheen pointed out a portion of the track surface that was painted...

Aaron Yates' image has found its way onto labels of Gatorade bottles. http://www.motorcycle-usa.com/photogallery...oradebottle.jpg Yates has also appeared in gatorade TV ads twice...sort of. One appearance was an action shot of him riding through the international horseshoe at Daytona. The...

Meet David Anthony This guy seems like a class act. I know he's been around for a while, but I've never really read anything about him. I know people say you can't build the AMA around privateers, but I'm glad DMG are trying. I really hope Dave gets better ASAP. Ulrich takes the gloves off...
