What happened to crotchrocket.TV? I saw a dns

I think the bike is all that I am not trying to be a dick but I don't know if May can produce a championship but it's early. Eslick doesn't look comfortable at all.

RACE 1: May 5th place and Eslick in 10th.
RACE 2: Eslick 9th place and May in 13th.

I haven't seen the second race, it's on later tonite. Anybody know what happened to May in the second heat--it looks like he had an incident, maybe?

"Team Amsoil/Hero EBR's Geoff May was running a solid fifth early before being forced to pit with a mechanical issue. The home track hero returned to climb his way back up to 13th in the end"

May just posted on FB that he broke his shifter in race 2 and they got back out as soon as they could.

Wow, i thought he was out.

That's actually pretty impressive to have to pit, replace a shifter, and come back to a 13th place finish!

I thought it was incredible . . . unfortunate turn of events . . but, Geoff and Danny, turned in a new HWM in ERB racing . . this is gonna get good.

Really proud of the job the team is doing.

I would imagine HERO is already pleased with having good coverage in such a short time since they came aboard. Likewise as Amsoil still is, and as EBR progresses it (coverage) will get better.

I think it was definitely a good weekend for our guys (EBR) and really shows the determination of all concerned. Looking forward again to Infineon in just two weeks. Riding my 1125R is even more fun as people learn more about us.

What an awesome race that was, more action there than over the last 5 years in MotoGP. Love seeing the EBR in top five. A little more time and it will be up there battling for podiums.

Agreed! A little more time and there will be an E.B.R on that podium.

"A shifter pivot bolt fell out."

I believe that was what happened on Geoff's bike. Hard to believe it also occured on Shawn's bike. And anyways that would have only been a temporary delay. I feel for Rob but think he will try his best to be at Infineon in two weeks. I hope so if he can afford it. He is a class act and deserves better results and I know he and Shawn are doing all they can to run well but are cut pretty thin on help. Good luck to both of you Rob, you're doing what many of us would never do even if we could.

Yes, it was Geoff's bike that had the pivot bolt out.

Not sure what the crotchrocket tv bike suffered.

Was def not a shifter issue on Shawns bike. If it had been I would have fixed it and he would've raced.

Only way it would've been a shifter problem is if a hard part actually broke as we keep the bolts wired...
