    Working with all of the MotoAmerica crew was really great too. Thanks to all of them for everything. I'm about as picky as it gets when it comes to running pro events because they're as much show as they are the races and you have to do both at the same time - I've done it myself, it's not easy, and they're doing it right.

    They were also cool enough to get full results with splits and everything for every session on their site - http://www.motoamerica.com/results

  5. Good job Eve and Mango. I think this is the opposite of destroying road racing in America though. :bow:

    Was great watching the WERA riders rip it up yesterday. Made me think I should have dragged my ass onto the grid as well. Maybe I'll make it to Barber and let Garrett pull me around.

    MotoAmerica had racers as young as 5 years old suited up riding their race bikes at Road Atlanta.... The visual path has never been more clear to a new enthusiast.....

  9. I thought the fact they had live timing really showed they were including wera into the show. Sucks I missed it, didn't make it to BSB this weekend either. Hit a brick wall and was burned out. Went to Charleston Saturday with the wife and did pretty much nothing. I needed it.

    Had an amazing time, the access to the live timing and data of MA was super cool to have. My kids were able to watch from home and follow it as if they were watching. Big thumbs up for the coordinated effort between WERA and MA.

    They really did everything to make us feel like we were part of the show - even though we all know/knew we were the low kids on the totem pole if things went bad. It really was great working with them all, makes me optimistic about pro racing long term for sure. Haven't felt that way since the last iteration of AMA Pro in Ohio and didn't feel that way for a long time before that :D

    Wish I had a liter bike! And was a few seconds a lap faster. And lived closer to one of those races. But great job WERA!

    You don't need a liter bike!

    Had fun seeing ya Sean. Emily was great to work with on the lane too. A few very minor bugs to work out, but all-in-all a successful event.

    Had an absolute blast all weekend! Being able to race AND watch MA was the best of both worlds! 5 rounds next season sounds good to me

    Dang I might show up just to see that show! Where the heck are they going to park RVs at Barber? That big grass lot outside the paddock?
