Danny Walker is 100000% correct

Today's MA facebook post. Coincidence?

 

Totally random and unrelated in any way whatsoever.

 

I hope Broaster Chicken sticks around. Hate to see a good (and tasty) sponsor leave.

 

Hoffman says it’s perfect so thats that!!!

Teams leaving, sponsors leaving, but hey, Superbikes and expensive shit is WINNING!!

 

I thought it was odd a when they came into the series as a sponsor for RRW and then after one year were with RRF. I figured they would of stayed with RRW.

 

They were sponsoring individual riders, like red bull. I don't think they were with ulrich and gang.

 

Too positive for the off season, Kyle. We need blood.

Point and counterpoint. I'm putting ignition in a '57 Chevy and it's annoying. So let's stir this up again.

Damn, shots fired!

I think we figured this out a dozen pages ago, but it really sounds like the level of support that Honda provided was a joke compared to the level of support that Yamaha provides.

Stanboli and Attack got active attention/guadance from Yamaha WSBK/MotoGP wizard Michele Gadda.

Road Race Factory got active attention/guidance from......?

I think the verdict still stands that electronics aren't killing entire race teams.

 

I dunno. Stanboli's last statement is certainly true. I wish more of the people in the sport would write opinion pieces like this. And respect to Stanboli for sticking with the sport. That dude could probably go to some other boring fab industry and forget all about two wheels.

 

Wow, that was a great article. I love being able to read about behind the scenes things like that

 

Stanboli's article is definitely thought provoking.

Though, he doesn't seem to address what the BSB guys and gals are doing without much of the control strategies everyone else is using, or supposed to use. It almost falls under his stepping back to go forward will = fail, analogy. But, it doesn't fail.

 

+ 1

 

If shots were fired, they were at Honda, and not Danny, imo.

 

Sad part is to be successful you will need an IT guy and not a talented racer these days.
Much respect for Attack Racing.
but he also explained why Racing is not growing like it should be.
Short setup time while at Races and as we have seen when it goes bad with electronics your shit out of luck at fixing it if you don't have the tools and info to fix problems.
I know to many racers on these new electronic gadget bikes who cannot get the bike to have a throttle when its turned and to have it shut off when turned off while racing.
Im sorry I will stay with my cable going to the carbs any day.

I didn’t hear Honda whining

 

Remember when “tuners” weren’t a thing back in the day? Oh wait...

 

How hard can a 57 Chevy ignition install really be?
