decades ago it was BetaMax or VCR - now it's DVR whatever, they're the race watcher's very best friends separate from great, live SuperCross & MotoCross coverage, most M/C road race & flat track broadcasts are tape-delayed anyway since they're not "live", record & then watch [& rewatch?] at your leisure & convenience | ||
| Bads1 |
Yeah but the next day sucks. I usually stay away from the computer till I've watched the race. Now a day later??? | ||
| Xb1125r |
its going to be good when AMA starts streaming, I think it starts in July. with windows 8 coming, things in media are going to get so much better. Bill Gates for King | ||

there should be a XBOX video game where you get to race motogp, wsbk and AMA this way you get to customize your motorcycle and I can race my ebr I still remeber Forsa had the old old buell wish they had my 1125r or the xb models | ||

A little blast from the past... Geoff May leading Barber on the 1125 in 2010  Can't wait to see the 1190RS's with Danny and Geoff at the helm.... | ||
| Firstbuell |
yo, thx for the Glory shot above - it re-energizes my EBR-at-Barber enthusiasm | ||
| Bads1 |
This should be a track that the EBR will shine as well as the KTM. | ||
| Lastcyclone |
Can someone post qualifying here when they are available. Thanks. | ||
| Firstbuell |
it's noon already & nothing up on ANY of the usual sites.... izzit rain, or pace car that done blowed up, or....? | ||
| Johnnylunchbox |
Live timing for practice hasn't started yet. Weather is perfect. Don't know what the hold up is. | ||
| Johnnylunchbox |
Forgot Birmingham is central time. Noon central is when it starts. | ||
| Imonabuss |
Barber does not run before noon on Friday, Central Time. Some local regulation. So a short intense afternoon leading up to qualifying! | ||
| Johnnylunchbox |
Going to be interesting. | ||

Josh Hayes on EBR's bikes & riders [edited]: "The EBRs are doing a good job, honestly," Hayes said. "They are just outgunned at a track like Road America. They don't have a chance. They were faster than Blake in the tighter parts of the racetrack all weekend, but there's three top-gear straightaways. We'll find out. At Infineon, they were competitive. At Miller, they were more competitive than anybody thought they'd be. We'll have to see where they are when we show up at Barber. They might really be singing good at Barber -- same thing at Laguna. We won't know until we get there. "Same thing with the KTMs. I think (Chris) Fillmore is actually riding the KTM pretty well. I've been impressed with the guy. But the poor guy is, for me, a moving roadblock going down the straight. It's an unfortunate part of what it is. Until they get more money behind their effort -- which, I don't know if they need results for that to happen -- it kind of is, what it is. But it will bring him along as a rider. And you know what, if he keeps sticking his neck out on the line like that -- it's kind of the same thing -- you make a mistake but then you get away with it and you start riding at that level, and when we get to some tracks that will suit him well, watch out. He might be really dangerous." While the EBRs and, to a lesser extent, the KTMs have been positive stories in the AMA Superbike field this season, it's hard to argue that they've been helped along by the relative struggles of their rivals. While EBR pilots and Danny Eslick and Geoff May have both finished on the podium, they are still a long way from threatening Hayes……. …..Asked if there was another Josh Hayes out there just waiting for the proper opportunity, Hayes said, "…..I think Geoff May, maybe a little bit. The only thing that has been different is Geoff needed Danny to come in to help him figure out how to take the bike to another level. It wasn't even a matter of changing the bike as it was Danny being willing to push his luck a little bit to see what he could get away with. Geoff talked about that -- to see Danny do something he said, 'oh, I guess you can do that' and then go out there and do it....." http://moto-racing.speedtv.com/article/ama-sbk-app raised-by-hayes/P1 | ||

Firstbuell - Dane Westby said he put in some really good mental and physical training in the break since last race. Appears to have paid off. Westby is my man in DSB. |
