So What's it Gonna Be (US Roadracing)?

I've got to tell you that your current plan for ruining road racing in the US is really flawed. Just further proof that you can't do anything right.

I'm hoping to be able to put some $ behind you guys next year for WERA Pro.

 

To the stereotypical Daytona/Sturgis "biker"? Anything where you lay on the tank to ride, or put all your weight on your arms (their terminology). All encompassing, everything from ninjettes to busas fit under the umbrella.

 

MotoGP, WSBK, CEV and the Red Bull Rookies Cup among them.

In the real world of racing, those are kinda sorta big deals.

 

Gobert on the Vance & Hines Ducati was getting to the point his Dainese were barely fitting...and whooping everyone's ass when he decided to show up.

 

That name is a blast from the past!
MSR boy!

Known that boy since his pearland days.

How is he doing?

 

I have very limited experience with WERA at this point, but I really like the sound and direction of the future. With that being said, I really see that WERA's website and social media efforts are a bit weak. I think another objective should be to revamp/overhaul these platforms and be a primary focus for the upcoming season. The social media aspect cannot be overstated in terms of growing awareness and the sports popularity.. Social media really drives the meter on almost everything these days. I don't really see none of the other orgs using the current technologies to promote and grow there own product.

I know it can almost be a full time job managing those sort of things, but I think it could really pay off.

Just my own thoughts. Please don't take any offense. I would be happy to assist with these efforts if interested.

 

He's doing pretty good...:up:

 

that is great to hear!
I have a lot of great memories watching Ty Howard and Haner tear up MSR back in the day.

 

The ebay add Haner had a few years back selling that completley wrecked racebike was frikkin hilarious.

 

Sean is correct. Which is why Superbike Shootout was not sanctioned with FIM North America (and yeah, we asked about it, that was Plan A).

 

For the casual fan, what would have been the benefits of having FIM North America sanctioning on Superbike Shootout?
Just trying to understand why there is so much focus on the sanctioning.

 

To differentiate it from AMA Pro Racing.

 

Awesome.

He has put in a lot of work and lost a lot of weight over the past couple of years. But he is still not a little dude. And still fast as hell.

 

we need bigger WERA stickers.

for trailers, campers, and such... (MotoGP pit scooters)

 

Just to be clear so if one of these proposed series do fulfill their proposal and present 10 or more pro rounds with a solid TV package, etc and offer something that has been lacking at the pro level, then WERA would just revert the pro series back to the nationals?

I was curious about this too splitting up the pie and making it difficult for any series to succeed similar to what's been happening in Australia. Don't get me wrong, as it stands right now WERA Pro is the ONLY series that's had any confirmation about running in 2015, so it's at the top of the heap.

 

He is fast as hell. Watched him at Roebling in the WERA superbike race where he & 6 others were nose to tail the whole race. Running 12s and less than a second seperated 1-7 places! Watching that gaggle of bikes scream up the hill outta 7, with guys riding power wheelies was exciting.

And I get a kick out of being able to read his last name on his leathers.
