The way I understood it......if someone claimed a bike......all of the factories had an agreement that they would all file and if any of the factories won they would give the bike back. The AMA would put all of the claims that were filed in a hat and draw the winner out. That is why he had to claim the...

It sounds like with your in good hands. Take it easy......heal up.....and see how you feel about riding months from now. I cant count how many times I have retired and come back.

Think Coach Gibbs hasn't seen a football player or 2 like Jason in Red Skin players in the past? I suspect coach Gibbs might have a few words of wisdom that would turn J-Laws career around.....

I have not bothered to read the 3 pages of this post but...........Theirs a new sheriff in town......break the rules....pay the consequences. In the past the rules have been ignored because the AMA did not enforce all of the rules....all the time. DMG is an affiliate to NASCAR and NASCAR enforces every rule every time so it is fair to...

I had to miss the Net races on Sat and that got me thinking....... Although it is great that we get to see the 2nd motos on TV it must be confusing for the casual watcher that they are only getting to see 1/2 the racing action. Hopefully MX Sports can attract enough sponsors to get the whole race televised...

A Factory Honda was claimed by a privateer back in 78 or 79. I cant remember his name but he protested the bike at several races till he won. Roudier or something like that and he had the worst looking numbers sewn on the back of his jersey. I think it was Cycle World who ended up tearing the bike...

Have you noticed that JGR requires their riders to live here? I have heard that most of the NASCAR shops have a full time trainer and a filly stocked training room. I agree......if they could keep Jason on the straight and narrow he would be a good addition.

I have not used them but I saw a powder coating shop at the NC/SC line south of Gastonia on 321. I am an ex MC A tech.......let me know if you need any help.

The way I understand it there was no one doing the protesting. It was either the promoter or MX Sports decision to mandate the top 5 tear downs. I think this would be a good idea if they did several class random tear downs at each regional. At one time the PW class at Lorettas was a zoo with protests...

If you ever get a chance to tour a NASCAR shop do it. I suspect JGR's shop is in line if not far better than any of the factory OEM shops. These teams have many full time engineers that are constantly looking for something to make their team perform better. They have the equipment to make factory parts in house...

I just got off the phone with a rider I sponsors mechanic who was at the qualifier this weekend. In one of the 250A classes they pulled the top 5 bikes down for inspection. One was found to be stroked to 302cc's. The same bike was used in a 2nd class but did not get DQ'd for that class. I...

AMA has nothing to do with the NEW Nationals......Its MX Sports show now. Its to bad Josh "rodeo" Grant lost his 1st 450 National win from his rule infraction....but he jumped and....... others did not. Hopefully this will get him fired up and drive him to more wins very soon.
