MotoAmerica | ROUND 07 | Infineon | 12-13 Aug

Surprised no one made an official thread on this yet (at least I didn't see one).

Anyway. Cam/Scholtz/Hayden on the front row in SBK/SSTK

Elias and Hayes back in 9th and 10th on the grid

 

Did Elias have a particular issue? I haven't read anything on it yet.

 

Dunno, I don't think he's ever ridden Sonoma before since it I don't believe it was on the schedule last year and I don't think they ever did any testing there. But then Hayes has done plenty of winning there and he's back in 10th?

 

I know nothing about the track but the 600 trap speeds are like 110-113.
Is the track that technical?


Ride safe,
AAron

 

If the speed trap is the front "straight" then that makes sense. Its really short and kinked.....see there between 12 and 1. BTW, the bikes follow the gray lines.

 

Guess I'll buy a can or two of WD40 tomorrow while I'm picking up some Jelly Bellys.

 

and Herrin does it again!

 

Yeah that was a shit show. Did it to Elias at VIR, then does it to his teammate at Sonoma.

 

WTF Herrin?!? Jeez.

 

Gagne's tail section is flopping around like a fish out of water coming through the carousel, must be chattering like a mf'er

 

Sheesh... If Jake Gagnes' tailsection shakes any harder, it's gonna snap off!!!!!!

 

Damn, most of these guys are running laptimes about the same as Gerloff was running on the 600!

 

Ahhh, poor Booby. Doing the ILS walk back to his crashed bike.

 

Yes, they also had an AFM FIV race as well, Tigert came out and did a 1:43.6 on a TWF SV to win the race.

 

That was a nice job at damage control there for Toni. Extends his lead over Hayden (56), only loses 5 its to Cam (71).

 

What happened to Roger?

For anyone with Verizon, the race will be on the Go90 app at 12:30am.

 

American Bautista took him out

 

He got checked like an AHL player in his first NHL game.

 

I was too lazy to hit rewind when they showed the re-wind of the incident, but I thought I saw the bike moving around a lot at the crest of then hill before that turn, my point being that I think Herrin's issue may have started a bit earlier than some would think.

 

Go JAKE nothing new!,,,,,,,,
