    Love seeing Scholtz, Beach, Lewis right there. Lewis out qualified Yosh out right, and quite a ways up on Herrin. Jake’s bike looks like it rolls through corners better than the Yosh bikes, which is interesting, and something I’ve noticed before. He just needs that Yosh horsepower...

    Lee with a second on the field at the moment. He would also be 10th in Superbike. Would be great to see a full tilt Kawasaki in that class next year.

    Racers are a fickle bunch and a "hard" tire scares them, hence those D names. And the coloring scheme and SC0 to a 3 naming soothes those egos and makes racing easier

    Looking at the times there, and yes I realize you can't compare different days (its is beautiful and sunny in NJ today) and times and surface degradation over the years.....but still, these guys aren't running much faster than Mladin did on his nearly SSTK-spec SBK 10 years ago :D :D :D

    I guess what I'm saying is are the high dollar SBK's worth it at the end of the day for seemingly the same lap times.

  12. Well at least Ray got 2nd today in BSB so steeltoe’s head hasn’t exploded yet.
    Twins FP1- Dumas must be cheating or on a 600 :) He checked the f out.

    Haven't been keeping close tabs on the Junior Cup this year, but holy crap....might as well have just switched the spec bike from the KTM 390 to the Ninja. Only 1 non-Kawi in the whole field on live timing?

    RRP Kinda Superbikey

    But but, the Yamaha is so much faster than the SV. :D

    Go Team Hammer!

    If you talk to the teams, they’re only 100% all in with the power about 10% of the lap at NJMP. So horsepower gains doesn’t get you much. It’s all in the chassis and the surface and NJMP has degraded pretty bad. Also, diminishing returns... Moto GP bikes aren’t that much faster than a WSBK bike.

    Mladin was great, but man, can you guys move on? I’d put Elias on every bit as equal footing as Mladin talent wise (here come the Mladin / Spies white knights).

    Wow - glad to see everyone up. That was a hell of an attempt around the outside. :bow:

    And now Blackmon.

    Who would have thought JR Cup front runners would be fast? Lol.

    With all the rule bickering going on, I knew it was a matter of time before young, hot shoe pros messed up all the BOP arguments.
