So, who's racing AMA this year?

[OreoGaborio]

107% for ASB (was 108% last year)
110% for DSB and SS, which is ridiculous.

I'm going to list the 2009 SS Qualifying time then what the 110% cutoff would be:

Got a Q time for Thunderbolt? Gotta figure out if I need to start begging Arcy to ride his R6

Then again, depening on how my LRRS season starts off, maybe I don't wanna skip a LRRS weekend.

If you can run a sub-2:00 laptime you should be okay.

[OreoGaborio]

Well that's not saying much.... most people here could do that on a Rukus with a flat tire.

Guess I'm in! (maybe)

Any team endurance races announced yet? I haven't heard anything.

Yea Josh Day qualified SS with a 1:48, but he was 2 seconds ahead of the P2 guy Garrett Carter who Q'ed with a 1:50. 1:50 = 2:01 qualifying time.

Wait, what? At Thunderbolt NJMP? That's not right, I did a 1:36.6 there on the SV last year.

Found this: http://www.amaproracing.com/rr/news/index.cfm?cid=23685
"Debuting 16-year-old rider P.J. Jacobsen (No. 54 Celtic Racing/Orient Express Honda CBR600RR) won the pole in qualifying Saturday morning for Sunday's AMA Pro SuperSport presented by Shoei final. Jacobsen turned a top lap of 1:24.391"

110% of that is a 1:32.830... I bet I could pull that off.

LRRS'er Rick Breen raced Supersport at Daytona.

Race 1 - 10th overall and 2nd in Top Gun
Race 2 - 11th overall and 3rd in Top Gun

I watched the races and while the front running SS kids are all gonzo there is zero reason for any LRRS Expert 600 rider not to give this a try. Looked like a ball!!

Rob you running any of the Sportster races?

[Speed Demon 828]

I'm working on it!

The rules package kinda screws me up though. I basically have to throw out all the work/parts I've put into the bike to run the Vance and Hines kit.

Also, I can't do the whole series on my own dime so I have to try and get some sponsors. But I'm 99% sure I'll be in for VIR and NJMP!

Hell ya!

I'd love to find a 600 to race for either VIR or NJ. Dammit!

Coming up soon? Anyone?

[Pittenger5]

Dont have a bike, if I write a nice letter will I get sponsored?

[OreoGaborio]

If I can find some $ and a 600, I still would... but I can't find $ and a 600.

I could probably make it work if I tried hard enough, but I dunno if it's doable right now.

I heard there is a paint store in MA looking to start a pro team.

Doing an AMA round in the big show great for expirence building for the up and coming riders. The Supersport/Top Gun is a good platform.

I think Tyler Sweeney is planning on doing AMA Supersport @ NJMP.

Wanna sponsor a half decent lightweight Expert?

(Hey, the guy spent like an hour looking for a clip-on in his trailer to give to me before he even really knew me, it's worth a shot )

Really? Nice.
