Actually, I hope they do well after all of this! I mean, I'd honestly hate to have that egg on our faces if they do badly after all of the advantages they've been given.

NASCAR SUX! The Toyota teams built engines to the rulebook, NASCAR approved them, then changed the rules for Toyota mid season, restricting their carbs cause they were kickin everyones ass. Trip is right to object to that mindset in bike racing regardless of the manufacturer!

and while I a wound up, the reason DMG think they can get away with it is because they did it semi successfully with the Moto ST gig. 3 classes, rules on power to weight for any kinda bike. They screwed that pooch too though as at first it was no sportbikes and then they allowed Aprilia Tuonos to walk away with their class as they are just naked RSVs. The other big difference is endurance is not about racing hea to head but about durability and endurance.

The Buell, piloted by Taylor Knapp, qualifies 11th.
