Read the AMA rule book for the Daytona Sportbike class they do not have a 3lbs per HP rule ,they only have a weight limit which is 385 lbs for twins, 375 lbs for triples, and a 365 lbs limit for 600cc fours . The Buell 1125RR got a competion allowance to weigh only 365 lbs . | ||

Anyone watching the broadcast on Speed? WTF is up with covering Barney and not even mentioning Eslick on outside pole? | ||
| Ikeman |
I spoke too soon... | ||
| Chellem |
Is that considered the "factory team" now? I don't understand, I thought it was officially still the dealership? Guess I missed a memo. Certainly not the first. | ||
| Aeholton |
Crap!!!! Pod problems!!! | ||
| Xbrad9r |
the side scoop...ugh | ||
| Hammer71 |
Great design on the fairing. | ||
| Ikeman |
AAAHHH!!! Gotta hate the learning curve | ||
| Snowscum |
Well theres goes the shot at beating the sewing machines  | ||
| Zxmarc |
that took a long time ...... | ||
| Aeholton |
Buell is cursed in Daytona! Bummer. Eslick was running so well too. Heartbreaking! | ||
| Acgwolfe |
Im not crying, i just got dirt in my eye | ||
| Zxmarc |
no dirt in my eye, i'm just crying | ||
| Cringblast |
AAAAAAHHHHHH!!!! How did it come loose ? | ||
| Chellem |
WTF. Seriously. Of all the silly things to get taken out of the lead over. I thought he did a pretty good job of riding the bike with that giant hunk of flap flappin' in the wind though. Crappin' crap. | ||
| Zxmarc |
and if that was not bad enough... it took them forever to fix it, one foot of duct tape and 2 tie wraps..... then the rider got in there with the blue tape to show them how it's done | ||

What a kick in the sack!! I feel terrible for Eslick and Richie Morris Racing. Richie's a really nice guy, and Eslick is a great kid! I hope this doesn't break that team's spirit. I know they'll be back with a vengeance for the next round. Disappointing to say the least!! Bodywork WTF!!! Schmitty | ||
| Ikeman |
I don't know where he'll end up but he's the only one running 1:49's | ||
| Ikeman |
Well not anymore | ||
| Court |
Higbee has moved up 3 postions in the last two laps. | ||
| Court |
Higbee continuing to move up . . . . now in 7th | ||
| Ikeman |
Red flag - no telling what'll happen now. | ||
| Court |
Eslick has gone from 43rd to 31st in like 4 laps | ||
| Court |
Higbee 6th | ||
| Chellem |
This is a really strange race. Some wierd-ass things happening - even understanding that wierd things happen racing. | ||
| Chellem |
OK I got up to get a drink and forward the wash. Why is the leader in the back now? did I miss something big? Guess it's time to rewind... | ||
| Ikeman |
That's what I was saying Court - Eslick came out in 68th after the pod droopage. Then he started turning 1:49 laps while the leaders were high 1:50s. Then you throw the yellows and the red flag - 2 wheel NASCAR - anything can happen. | ||
| Cringblast |
Go Higbee Go ! | ||
| Cringblast |
Go Eslick Go Go BUELL ! | ||
| Ikeman |
Higbee in 6th and Eslick's up to 21st. Looks to me like the 1125R's got the goods if the bodywork will stay on. Eslick's got some serious skills! |
