Ok Mladin managed to get one up front at least.
I meant in AMA. On the world level Yammi has the title of best bike wrapped up.

I was just messin' anyways. Yeah I like my two Yamaha's but I'm not really brand loyal at all. I've owned several different brands and I'm sure I will in the future. Just like when it comes to cages...sure I like the Vette but that's just the flavor of the week for now...I like most all performance cars.

I will give you AMA 1000s

AMA 600s has been the hondas and yamahas, same with World sportbike 600s

WSB 1000s isn't Yam, that's the rider. WSB is Ducati without a doubt.

Its a toss up for GP. Ducati and Yam are both good with the right rider.

Now, even though I despise "could have beens", you have to admit, it was the Suzuki that took it to the Buell until he had some sort of "melt down"...

Huh, maybe Eslick decided that he might want to actually race somewhere else BESIDES Daytona Sportbike in the future.... Martin Cardenas is possibly moving on to the world stage and Danny Eslick... well, he's stuck back here taking the bus/rv to the next race. He's not exactly living the life...
From what I understand of it, he is, but for the Buells that are already out there. As Buell is no more for new bikes, they won't be able to race them in Daytona series...

Josh Herrin finished 5 points behind the Buell on a R6 and the Erion Hondas have been doing awesome in 07-08. I am sticking with what I said.

I know how it ended... Martin had the championship all but won and decided to throw his bike down three times and injure his hand. It's unfortunate because he could have cruised to 5 place finishes for the rest of the year and took it to Buell but oh well....

Btw I like Herrin, where is he racing in WSB/WSS next year?

Don't forget DeSalvo was having a decent year on the Zuk until the end of the season.
