Just found out Gary Orr from SDBMW crashed hard in practice at Daytona, and will be in the hospital for awhile there. Broken bones, but he'll be OK.

Sorry but this was a poor excuse for a top line race.

No wonder the guys from Italy,Spain and Oz etc are winning all the World class events in WSBK,Moto2,125GP,MotoGP. OK Ben Spies won WSBK good thing for him he moved away from our brand of backwater racing. Zemke could barely qualify for a WSBK race and he plays hero/primadonna over here. My rant is over, I hope the AMA starts to pay more attention to the FIM way of doing things. I cant wait for the next WSBK round and for the start of MotoGP.
