I know the winner gets 30 points. If Herrin earns 20 points per race and Danny only gets a couple, then it will be extremely close (perhaps tied.) Danny has a 36 pt. lead now. It's NOT insurmountable.   Elvis Posted on Friday, September 04, 2009 - 02:20 pm:        Right now, Danny has 357 points and Herrin has 321. Points are on page 93: http://www.amaproracing.com/assets/RR_Rules_2009.p df If the final results match qualifying, Herrin would have 357 and Danny would have 371 and Danny would win . . . BUT Herrin still does have a realistic chance - particularly if he can improve his spot and win a race or two. If Herrin can win both races and get the maximum bonus points, he could end with 384. To compete with that, Danny needs 7th place or better in boths races. So from a mathematical perspective, since Danny can't control what Josh does, he needs to shoot for two 7th or betters to guarantee the win. More realistically, if he can do two 10th place finishes, he has a very good chance, but if Danny wrecks or has a mechanical, all bets are off.   Blake Posted on Friday, September 04, 2009 - 02:34 pm:        Points awards for AMA DSB: Pos Pts 1 30 2 25 3 21 4 18 5 16 6 15 7 14 8 13 9 12 10 11 11 10 12 9 13 8 14 7 15 6 16 5 17 4 18 3 19 2 20 1 Pole Winner Pts 1 Most Laps Led Pts 1 Max Pos.

Clinton Sellers, 1st time AMA racer, qualified 3rd in DSB going into Superpole. Thanks to OTT for the outstanding on site updates and twitvids. www.OnTheThrottle.com!   Rubberdown Posted on Friday, September 04, 2009 - 03:13 pm:        Good to see Barney up there. GReat guy!   Crazykcycle7 Posted on Friday, September 04, 2009 - 03:39 pm:        This explains what happened to Slick: http://twitter.com/buellsportbikes   Blake Posted on Friday, September 04, 2009 - 03:42 pm:        Oops. Sellers caught running with illegal fuel. His qual effort nulled. Bummer! Hate to see that happen to the kid. What was his team thinking? Danny's best time also tossed due to him passing pace bike at opening of qual. Final results for 1st qual run...   Blake Posted on Friday, September 04, 2009 - 03:45 pm:        Looks like Danny's penalty only cost him a tenth of a second and no effect on his placement. Only top ten go to superpole though so he's stuck at 13th on the grid for both races' that's 7th pair back on the running start.   Blake Posted on Friday, September 04, 2009 - 03:59 pm:        ASBK 1st Qual Final Results. Go Taylor Knapp, Cory West, and Shawn Higbee! (Message edited by blake on September 04, 2009)   Liquorwhere Posted on Friday, September 04, 2009 - 04:55 pm:        I just read that the Cardenas fella is out, so as I don't follow AMA anymore really, if they only run one race then Mr Eslick is the champ yes? If they run two races he just has to finish the weekend with a few points to win it....looking at Blake's points list. Good for that guy, always cool to win a series. I am guessing by the most points one can make in a weekend on the list it seems two races are run, so if Eslick finishes reasonably well and the third place guy doesn't sweep the weekend, then it should be over and done with.   Badlionsfan Posted on Friday, September 04, 2009 - 05:30 pm:        Um, read Elvis' post further up on this page, he explains the points situation.   Blake Posted on Friday, September 04, 2009 - 05:52 pm:        DSB Superpole...   Blake Posted on Friday, September 04, 2009 - 05:59 pm:        OTT catches a little sound of thunder. Taylor Knapp heading out to his DSB Superpole run... and caught with Buell 1125R at full song on his flying lap, crank it up 10 seconds in.

Thanks to www.OnTheThrottle.com   Elvis Posted on Friday, September 04, 2009 - 06:08 pm:        Only top ten go to superpole though so he's stuck at 13th on the grid for both races' that's 7th pair back on the running start. Just a slight correction, if I may: The top ten positions have been set by this afternoon's Superpole. The remaining grid will be set tomorrow morning in the "final qualifying". Danny could move up to 11th - not really a big difference and that's the best he could do if everything goes right. . . . on the other hand, if things go wrong tomorrow morning he could lose position. Barring incident, he should be in the top 15, but a wreck tomorrow morning could put him at the back of the field.   Blake Posted on Friday, September 04, 2009 - 06:18 pm:        The sound, gorious four-stroke big bang and twin sound! @ 0:14 seconds and 1:30 in the following OTT video. Crank it up and enjoy.   Blake Posted on Friday, September 04, 2009 - 06:21 pm:        Corry West flies by OTT on start of hot lap... Thanks to www.OnTheThrottle.com   Blake Posted on Friday, September 04, 2009 - 06:31 pm:        More great sound thanks to OTT. Nice launch by Larry Pegram on the big Duc and the hot lap fly-by finish by Cory West. Thanks to www.OnTheThrottle.com   Backcountryme Posted on Friday, September 04, 2009 - 06:43 pm:        Damn those big twins sound so good. I can't stand up right now. Haha. Go Danny. Get that #1 plate. You earned it.   Dentguy Posted on Friday, September 04, 2009 - 06:48 pm:        Thanks for the videos. Love the sound of those Buells and Ducs. Boy, that clutch is loud.   Backcountryme Posted on Friday, September 04, 2009 - 06:56 pm:        Anyone know how to get ahold of Richie? I want to see if I can get a tour of his shop when I am in Wisconson at the end of the month.   Blake Posted on Friday, September 04, 2009 - 07:12 pm:        Thanks for the clarification Elvis! Thank www.OnTheThrottle.com and www.Twitvid.com & Twitter for all the vids. I'm just reposting them here.   Blake Posted on Friday, September 04, 2009 - 08:19 pm:        Taylor Knapp's 1125RR in its stable at NJMP Shot by Buell Motorcycle Company   Blake Posted on Friday, September 04, 2009 - 08:23 pm:        Cory West is a large man!

I think it is just the angle of the picture. Cory weighs about 150 lbs, so I would not call him a large man. I am not sure how tall he is, but I know is somewhat shorter than me and I am 6 ft.
