I misunderstood your post referencing the OP about US guys being able to use better fuel and exhaust since it was followed by comments like "if you believe what Reed said" and "Luongo bends the rules to get Americans to compete". These are not exact quotes of what you posted. I don't have time to go back and look. Seemed as though you were saying the Americans had an unfair advantage, but I apparently misread. What rules does Luongo bend for Americans? If he didn't do something, there would be 15 guys on the line in MX2 at Glen Helen.
He bends ALL the rules for USA rounds. And your last sentence was exactly my point.

Well he certainly bent the rules on jumping on a waving yellow flag! Laughing

I unloaded the fuel from 2 different trucks that were the same spec and VP was selling fuel that met the same spec and everyone ran it. Also there was nothing said on or off the podium about a Herling's DQ. The only one I know of was the rider from Canada who was DQ'd for course cutting. That's all I got.

Not everyone, as many teams don't use VP...

We did not try or take any fuel samples at Glen Helen and the bike he raced was in the Impound area the full 30 min for protests if someone wanted to. ( No body did ) THERE IS NO TRUTH TO THIS RUMOR.

I've heard from multiple people that Coop was using GP-spec fuel in Charlotte.

Apparently a lot of people didn't get the memo about being able to use U.S.-spec fuel.
