Ask that question of the Formula Extreme race and after the Daytona 200 Superbike race.

yup those 2 600rr's where untouchable in the FX race .......

but that is also alot of $$$$$$$$$$$

After seeing the superstock race yesterday, the ZX10 really impressed me. RL Hayden was able to WALK AWAY from the R1's on the banking without a draft, very impressive. I think the ZX10 will be a VERY hard bike to beat later this year. Good for Kawasaki, they deserve a bit of success. I believe their collaboration with Suzuki is starting to make progress for them.

yes i saw that too ., he could just muscle away on the banking ., they had to use the draft to pass him. ,it was an awesome race to watch all the battling .,. and he lost all those spots at the finish line.. ouch

Well, he doesn't quite get the idea that at Daytona you do NOT want to be leading on the last lap. You cannot pull away from the pack down there. You realise that when you race there which is why I tried to hide back a little in my races at Daytona last year and draft on the last lap. Unfortunately I couldn't draft the 20 or 30 places I needed on the last lap to get a win, LOL.
