MotoAmerica | Silly Season | 2025

That is good about Strack. With ADR shakey it would be good to get some more teams and deeper fields in Superbike. Honda would be absolutely amazing if it can happen. Especially if Gillam gets a seat.

 

Are we certain these teams will field second bikes?

 

Superbike:

Warhorse HSBK: Herrin
Tytlers BMW:
Attack Yamaha: Gagne
M4 Suzuki: Escalante
ADR/?
Scheibe BMW: (With that old bike are they really a true superbike team?)
SBU Yamaha:
Honda:
TOP PRO: Arrango
Flinders : Flinders

Paasch, Kelly, Beaubier, Gillam, Fores, Beach, Petersen, Scholtz, Baz, Herfoss, Fong, Landers, Hayes, Smith ????
Any new teams looking possible?

Supersport:

Rahal Ducati: Jacobsen/Yaakov/Alexander
Yamaha/Strack/N2:
M4 Suzuki: Scott
Tytlers:
TopPro:
Altus
ADR


Talent Cup

 

Unfortunately not at all

 

We certain that Gagne will be healthy enough to compete for wins again next year?

 

I hope that is all true

Odd/hypothetical question here, with a production bike class restructuring looming and decreasing engine size in GP or whatever they are doing to slow the bikes down, would that offset some safety concerns for the older/smaller tracks in the US?

 

Nope. They’ll be faster in short order.

 

I hadn't paid much attention to the North American Talent Cup, but I also hadn't realized it looks like it doesn't exist anymore? Is it just too difficult to run a lightweight talent cup AND MotoAmerica lightweight class in the US?

I always wonder what happens to all those old Moto3 bikes from years past. Wouldn't that be a good use to have America's young talent on actual Moto3 bikes?

I'm like 99% sure SDK said he'd be back at Top-Pro on a BMW Next year.

 

I hope so, I thought they had a great year, learned a lot, team chemistry appears strong, fantastic rider and great crew chief and Alex rocks!

 

Yamha/Strack/N2? Are they merging does this mean Blake amd Mat will be on R9.

 

Blake will be on r9 with Strack.

 

Flo4Law Racing will field Ben Smith on a full spec superbike with SBU.

 

Breaking: Dunlop (Sumitomo tire) just permanently shut down it's plant in NY. New tires next year?

 

Thanks Obama
