The No. 3 and No. 33 RMR Racing motorcycles violated rules concerning the modification of equipment and as a result, race winner Jake Holden and third place finisher Kyle Wyman have lost their results, prize money and points for the New Jersey Motorsports Park race.

New race and points standings will be issued but as a result of the confirmation of the infractions, P.J.

Second place is Steve Atlas riding for HOG Racing and third is Travis Wyman on his Harv's Harley-Davidson Racing XR1200.

"Racing by the rules is a critical element of a spec series such as the AMA Pro Vance & Hines XR1200 Series and we monitor the machines very closely and we will continue to do so to ensure fair and equal competition," said AMA Pro Technical Director of Competition Al Ludington.

Following the application of the penalties outlined above, no further sanctions will be taken for these specific violations.

they didn't leak oil like the other bikes so they deemed it a performance advantage...

 

I heard they did some tuning on the stock ECM. You are supposed to leave it stock and run a V&H fuel pack.

The stock Harley ECM's can be reprogrammed internally.

Congrats to PJ Jacobsen and Steve Atlas! First AMA Pro win and first AMA Pro podium respectively.

 

Wonder how they even could tell something was wrong? Or did they send everyone's ECU's i.

 

Read the link above:

"As to why it took so long for the penalties from the Sept. 5 race to be assessed, Szymanski said, the units 'had to be sent to the manufacturer to be inspected and validated.' The units were returned Monday night, Sept. 20, after which the team was notified."
