    Its that Alex Arango led team posted about on here: 2 superbikes, 2 stock 1000's, ss, twin, and jr cup. I think its the new bmw team as the team shop that is behind it has a long and extensive partnership with Alpha. But you know, nothing has been 100% confirmed.

    Word was Xavi was trying to get a ride with Wesby in sbk, that leads me to believe there will only be one superbike and they are leaning to Joshie. And given the repeated lies about running two superbikes for the past two years I dont believe Warhorse ever had the intention of running more than one superbike. But you know all a guess.

    That may be more the Ducati brass pushing that than Warhorse. They’d rather have another championship belt than a second place in SBK. JMO

    With the "speculation" of these new, or expanded, teams for 2024... we have only been thinking of riders... these teams need qualified mechanics, electronics, etc teams members to support a front running team.
    That may be harder than finding fast riders.

    Putting some rumors together about a new BMW team, maybe SDK and Xavi will be on the new BMW SBK team together?

    Knowing him doesn't change being able to be unbiased with his interviews. I absolutely don't know what you're talking about because using even your complaintws they don't make sense, it's as if you're taking things and looking to be upset about them when objectively they mean absolutely nothing negative or positive.

    Did I miss MA getting into being a sports book? The company they talk about distributes data best I can tell to the sports books so no change from the current ability to bet on MA.

    Got to Vegas, find a bookie, there is betting on anything and always has been including MA. All this does is gather (and I guess sell) data for any books that want it.

    Little lost as to why people think this will create gambling.

    Create gambling? No. Facilitate gambling and possibly encourage some new gamblers? Yes.

    Well the company needs data from timing and scoring. If you've been at every round you know that T&S is rarely available on hot pit first thing on Friday, we've become accustomed to it not working. Granted that's due somewhat to track infrastructure but it would be great if it would be tested before anyone is on track. T&S has taken a dump many times during weekends as well, and that's the source of the data for betting.

    For this to work those issues will need to be fixed unless bets are limited to finishes.

    Dave K DaveK über alles!

    When the PLL brought in an “official sports book” they got some sponsorship cash in exchange for the “official” and having some logos and such crap. Some people blew up because a large portion of the fan base are kids and it’ll encourage gambling and the usual shit.
    No idea on how much money if any the gambling site made but I wasn’t the target market.

    Some People will drink. Some People will smoke. Some want to bet on things. Whatever.

    If MA makes a few bucks in sponsorship off it I’m all for it.
