AMA rulebook ? What rule book ............?

Question

Here we go again.

http://www.superbikeplanet.com/2008/Jul/080722r.htm

This time its the Attack Kawasaki of Steve Rapp.

Why do the teams try and [ bend ] break the rules, when they know they will get caught.

You would have thought after the whole Daytona / Honda rule break, giving the title to Britians Chaz Davis, that all the teams would play by the book.

Clearly not.

Your thoughts please race fans.

Answer 1

Sucks for him. I think the Haydens had some Illegal stuff themselves when they were on the kawi. But who knows

That's kawi's only recognition in the AMA

when you say AMA people think Sazook and Mladin or spies

Answer 2

Didn't he/Attack Kawi just get busted for using an illegal tyre a race or so ago???

Busted twice in one season...not a good thing.

Answer 3

Hi Wiggysan, I just read it, Do you think they have planed the head for more compression. or like the others have polished it. doesn't exactly say what they think they have found. But like I have said before. as in life "so many rules and so little time to break them" I'm all for teams trying to BEND the rules. I call it development. getting caught is one step behind the officials instead of being one step ahead.  Don't get me wrong I don't advocate Cheating. I agree there has to be rules/ Guidelines to have any kind of competition. but if teams didn't try to gain an advantage where would the sport be. These people have very clever people working on the wording of the rule book as effectively as lawyers in a courtroom. and good luck to them I say.
