To their "credit" they would almost have to be to make the hp limit. If they so much as change the heat range in their spark plugs it could put them over!

To be honest, I actually believe that they have shot themselves in the foot here. They started out strong but now the other teams have gotten their bikes sorted out and have figured out how to make the aforementioned 140 ponies and keep their bikes running. I also think that at first the factories were kinda, "who cares" about this series but after getting spanked a couple of times, they have stepped to the plate with some more support. Hence, the successive wins by 600s in this class. I will seriously laugh my fucking ass off if the "Official Bike of DMG/AMA Racing" doesn't win this series! To me that would be a HUGE slap in the face to Eric Buell considering the rules. All you Buell guys might want to take a vacation from the site or put me on ignore if that happens!
