Re: [ST] Laguna MotoGP - Where's the two strokes?

[Erik Astrup <erikastrup@xxxxxxxxx>]

The AMA rules are a clusterfuck. Especially since they changed all the
time. Now finally they have locked down SBK for several years. That's
a start

You've got two classes running liter bikes, two classes running 600s.
Formula Xtreme used to be liter bikes with heavy mods. Now it's a
fuggin' modified 600 class. Ain't nuthin' "extreme" about that class.
At Sears Pt this year I constantly heard people talking about "what
class is this? what's the difference from that to this? Is this
superbike, superstock, supersport? WTF?

Then I think back to when the 600 Supersport class was filled with
factory back top level talent. DuHamel, Smith, Yates, Chandler,
Pitcotte, James.....

Now? Pfftth. 

And all their constant rule changes chased Yamaha and Kawasaki out of
the Superbike class, so now Superbike is the Mat Mladin show and
privateers are filling up the top 10 finishes. It's a joke, and Im
certainly not in the minority with that opinion.

Just my .02
