Redesigned AMA Pro Racing website launched under the radar

Haven't kicked the tires too much yet, but it looks waayyyyy better than the old one. Looks like most of it actually works, too. Feeling it out for a bit before further comment...

 

Not sure about it. I'll have my expert wife review it. (she works for http://www.portentinteractive.com and SEO is their speciality)

 

check out this guy!

well....its not updated. The schedule for Road Atlanta is wrong....shows Auto Club Speedway. What else...

 

A lot better than that turd they had before.

 

What's with all the garbage on the bottom of the riders page with all of the web links?

 

He finished fourth??? I think they need to verify their information! Maybe fourteenth!

 

I think the site LOOKS a lot better, BUT where are the results and points? Please tell me I'm just missing it!

 

4th was a club race at miller. Of course, He woulda won but............if........only..........

 

Wait really? They just *had* to make the section labels with Flash? Seriously? You couldn't put "Rider Bio" in normal HTML? Is that just to complicated that they had to do it in Flash? The ticker flash at the top keeps on making requests for it's XML payload rather than just loading it once per page visit. Another bad piece of programming, just like the two week later race recaps.

LOL, Steve, that's nothing, check out the source for the rider bio pages, like the first one,

http://www.amasuperbike.com/rr/riders/rider.cfm?did=3215

especially the section of the page between "Career Highlights" and "RELATED RIDER NEWS", like:

"<a href='http://www.access-able.com/dBase/details.cfm?id=267201362'>buy phentermine online</a> <a href='http://www.discovergold.org/cvb/whatsnew/whats_new_detail.cfm?press=49'>cheap carisoprodol</a>

<p><a href="/rr/riders/rider_career.cfm?did=3215">View full career highlights</a>.</p"

Whoops!

 

Yeah I can't figure out if it's some sort of ColdFusion security bug that's already been hacked. Buffer Overflow in ColdFusion that is pulling content some other site on the same server or someone doesn't know about Lorem Ipsum for generating test cruft.

Here's a clue, check out the source for this page.

d.'o.h.

That's sad, in a geekly sorta way.

They're hosting the site, those boys might want to take a hard look at their production servers.

 

Yeah, they have some issues.
