Default BMW to race HP2 Twins at Daytona 200

This will at least make the Daytona 200 much more interesting. Ant cheers in the background.

I don't want us to pull a Buell and have all our bikes break. I will honestly start crying. I even had a flyer/handout made at the last second for the street version of that thing to be given out.

Your guys will be fine...They race the RS in the endurance classes all the time in Europe. These are basically higher revving higher, horse versions of the same basic platform. Buell was a whole different story. When they ran their XBs that was really the first real race shakedown of the bike. Bad choice getting their feet wet on a 200 mile race. The real kicker will be how far down the grid will the HP2s finish.

Plenty of faith but it's racing so anything can happen.
