MotoAmerica I Superbikes at Minnesota I Brainerd International Raceway - July/29-31

packed house.

 

Pretty much like all of Mid Ohio then.

 

You would still roll off early.

 

I honestly thought the Mid-Ohio thing was an exaggerated annoyance, and prolly just the same feeling as Grattan.... I raced Mid-O for the first time this past weekend, I haven't been able to poop since Friday morning.


Excited for the Brainerd round it's a cool track.

 

MotoSean — Today at 3:30 PM
OK, I found out the deal on the new Dunlop front for Brainerd, and I didn't get the info from Dunlop. All I can say is that the tire may possibly provide similar performance to a front tire made by another brand, and a certain team campaigned for its use in MotoAmerica. The hope is that the tire will provide benefits to more than just that one certain team. - Sean Bice

 

So Ducati wants it to behave like the WSBK pirelli?

 

Shut up! Fag!

 

Interested in this whole front tire thing

 

Predictions: (In order of watchability and excitement)

JC: Kayla will start closing in on the top three in points. Looking to see Max Van regain his form from beginning of season.
TWN: Unfortunately one less Yamaha. Looking for another bar banger!
SS: The pack closes in on Herrin. The 750's will continue to improve to make the Yamaha boys unhappy. Looking for a Olmedo to shake the pack up.
STK: Four manufactures battling it out, never know how this one will go. Not sure if May is ready to go?
SB: Gagne will continue to own Petrucci's soul. But still a snoozfeest of a race---yawn.

Just can't get into the Baggers or Hooligans yet.

 

Pussy.

 

IIRC, several teams have complained more this year about the current fronts and chatter. And not just the DucSquad.
Of course as always, subject to suspension settings, electronic settings, riders going faster, etc.

 

Josh Hayes in for Olmedo on the N2 SS R6 this round.

 

Yeah, that seems to be the case for a few different bikes. I am interested in seeing how it pans out

 

Nope.

Can't race in the rain due to the VHT on the front straight.

 

My old battered brain at first read it as 591 and thought,well that will be interesting.

 

Well that changes a few things. Last I heard those two were winning endurance races.

 

LOL that's exactly what I thought when I read that too. Doesn't matter... Petrucci won't catch Gagne

 

They were. Kevin is injured. Guillian Barre Syndrome apparently.

 

Shit

 

I'm floored, the hell...
