Gimmick... I honestly wish for a girl that can actually race with the big boys! I mean, *YAY* that chick can pass some chumps at a local track day, good for her but where is she on the grid? How many times did she get lapped? As far as cutting girls a break based on when they started riding, Steve Rapp was well into his 20s before he ever got on a bike. I'm just tired of all the fan fare whenever a chick makes the grid...Let's see some results!

Heck, you didn't her me crowing when Montel was racing for Jordan... "Look a black guy is racing!". He didn't finish for crap! Does he get the same excuses? Trust me, there are a heck of a lot more black guys that ride than women.

Elena Myers is tied for second in AMA Pro SuperSport. I am interested to see where she goes next since she is only 16 now.

Yea, not to mention that with the electronics these things have on them now, they barely have to do anything but hold on and twist the throttle.

Wow 43rd... GIMMICK!!! Any one of 1,000 male racers could have done that well/poorly. Big deal! Oh and btw I don't race, if every time someone criticizes any racer's stats the answer will be be, "they are faster than you...", I guess that none of us are allowed to criticize or even comment on racing what so ever. In fact, I guess that goes for ALL competitive endeavors...if you can't demonstrably do some thing better, you are not allowed to comment.
