yamaha-deegan-cheated-at-loretta-it-looks-very-suspicious

So just stop reading the thread. Problem solved.

 

I did tech the last year of AMA up until then just raced. I can’t tell you how many times I had seen factory or satellite teams bikes apart in tech during the 90’s , all the rules were gray.

 

This sucks. I’m not smart enough to help you, but I will surely get on the financial band wagon if you sue or if some smart people here figure out a way we can group together and fuck this guy’s career with complaints or letter writing.

 

Or at least open the Dungeon back up: I kinda want to see that guy's opinion on, well, everything.

 

Did the promoter go out of his way to extend an invitation to the dad in the same way Brian Deegan was invited to the proceedings, though? Do we know that the dad turned it down? That would seem like a strange thing to do if he knew that the other dad was going to be there.

 

Maybe dad just expected the other adults involved to act with integrity.

 

In case you thought I meant WERA, it was not a WERA event that I’m referencing.

 

the rider doing the claiming only has 30 minutes after the moto to file the claim. the kid went to their pit, dad was still walking around the track trying to get back to their pit (HUGE COMPLEX), and lost track of time, after watching the moto his son was just in, and forgot the kid was going to claim the bike. that is the story that is out there. to insert the dad was not involved, or sent the kid on his own, is you trying to justify the promoter, telling Brian Deegan what was up, and allowing him to talk to the minor with no one there to help represent said minor. THE RULE WAS IN PLACE AND FOLLOWED, DEEGAN HAD ZERO REASON TO DO ANYTHING BUT, GIVE THE BIKE TO THE AMA FOR HOLDING. HE HAD ZERO REASON TO SPEAK WITH THE KID. ZERO! this is what you are missing. Ski

 

Even in club racing, usually the Protestee is not allowed to talk to the Protestor after the Protest has been filed.

 

Not until the BBS resolves this issue

 

Well we must escalate this to the Pro-Ranks now. Does he get tried as a minor once he's a Pro? How far will the BBS take this saga?

If Deegan ever wins a championship, will it have an asteric?

 

It was resolved 400 posts ago

 

No way! BBS resolution isn't a real thing.

 

No, I got that part too. YOU missed the part where Brian Deegan was minding his own business at their rig while the kid was dealing with the AMA and promoter over the claim, when THE PROMOTER CALLED DEEGAN ON THE PHONE TO GET HIM TO COME OVER THERE AND TALK TO THE KID MAKING THE CLAIM.

That promoter was also the only one alleged to make any threats, but yeah jump on Brian like everyone else here if it makes you feel better about whatever tf you’re doing!

 

Since the promoter was the only one accused of threatening the kid, I would bet he didn’t talk to his parents at all.

 

Nah, from what I understand he is fairly talented. Now, if he wins on a STAR bike? Tear-em-down! lol

 

I don’t think Brian should have said anything to the kid, but I also don’t see any evidence of foul play, much less a reason to call him a Dick/pussy/pos whatever else the internet can come up with over what we know here.

But my failed attempt at a protest was never even filed to begin with. I decided to wait till the next round.. hell I think very next weekend at Cycle Jam where he had a mechanical DNS and I never saw him again.

Again didn’t really mean to bring that up as the WERA officials at that round in particular had a lot going on, were onto said rider’s straight line speed, and ready to go through with our tear down when there was real money on the line at the next round. I don’t think I was actually refused for the protest, but determined on my own after seeing what all was going on that weekend that it would make no difference for us to wait until Road A.

I said all that to say I think claiming is a very serious issue.. hell even a simple tear down can be a major deal for a small program! For many privateers that don’t have the knowledge to even put a stock R6 back together properly, having a tech tear down and rebuild an engine could really eat away at a seasons budget… so we never even thought about pulling that shit on anybody until that one weekend where we thought we just had do it on principle, along with some other competitors.
