Yes we all know buy now, there will be NO AMA.

Even so, this kind of press is bad. Saying that, the DMG wont give a monkeys, they have no factory to upset !

Your thoughts on the " possible " rule breaking in the AMA. Dont forget, Chaz won the Daytona 200 !

Answer 1

Hi Wiggysan. I think the Q&A bit might have a point about the DMG maybe wanting a little bit of payback for the Factory teams refusing to acknowledge the deadline. and i Agree with you that its probably pointless asking anymore questions on the AMA series.

I hope the factory teams do decide to run a series of their own. done right it could rival the MOTOGP. especially if they go Full on Factory. lets see who is best mentality. 1000cc street monsters.

We already know from GP that its too much power to put down on the track. but it would be great to see them try again. wouldnt harm the superbike series either.

Answer 2

I'll be heading to road A. in a few days and I will get the skinny for Niel and the Bostroms for you wiggy

Answer 3

Hi Wiggysan

I don't know much about AMA, but I get the feeling that breaking the rules is almost a given in that series. Just don't break the 11th commandment, ie don't get caught! If you can get away with something fine. If you don't, tough!

I'm sure Ben's bike was the same spec a Matts. It was just lucky that they didn't check his engines bottom end.

It just shows what a mockery that series is in its present form, and I think this is DMG flexing its muscles and basically saying this series has been rotten for years and something needs to be done. They may have a point.
