Edmondson said that he has letter of intent commitment from each of the above
promoters/tracks for the 2009 season. He would not discuss the class structure
or OEM involvement saying the latter was at a sensitive stage and he didn't wish
to harm it. He said that announcements on those two subjects will be
forthcoming as will a rules package.

That's great! I would probably be going just as long as they're still racing motorcycles by then...hopefully DMG won't reduce MC racing in the US to a scooter convention.

Yeah I think so too..
My son will be like 2.5 years old.. You think that is old enough to bring to the races??? :ride:

Sure, just be careful not to expose your kid to too much noise while there, protect his hearing.

The superbike talent pool in the US aside from Spies and Mladin is pretty close. Why not adapt BSB or SBK rules. Those series are extremely competitive.....

I agree.

On a side note, I'm glad to see Spies going to WSBK as opposed to MotoGP. I think we'll hear more of him in WSBK then we would have in MotoGP.

The scrubs will have a chance now that Spies is gone and Mladin wont have anything to do with DMG/AMA "Daytona" Neuterbikes....
Any riders with real promise / youth are being acquired for WSB/WSS leaving a less talented field... but at least the "racing" will be "closer"....

Back benchers are already cueing up for rides they wont get.... :ride: :roflmao:
