I can't wait for these races...
Go Johnny Rea! And Josh Hayes!

 

the weather was not nice last year

 

hell yes!

although i am disappointed after the nice weather we've been having that it's calling for scattered showers this weekend.

can't wait.

 

Definitely the one with the umbrella can get it.

 

Is this the 1st time the AMA will be using the outer course?

 

Nope. They used it last year as well IIRC.

Any AMA wildcards in WSBK at Miller this year?

 

Boulder Motorsports 1198R with Shane Turpin for sure. Not sure off the top of my head of any others.

Which one needs to find the porta-potty?

 

Some of my eye candy from MMP WSBK 2010 can be found here. Note. I am BY FAR not a pro photographer, but I was lucky enough to get on the grid for WSS and took full advantage.
