Does anyone have any info on Ducati contingency for CCS, ASRA, and MOTO-ST? Nick McCabe at Ducati North America told me in November that their 2007 plan would be posted by the end of December. It's still not posted and they haven't returned my calls.
Quite a few of us are waiting on it. Last year it was posted at the start of February.
I emailed Nick 2 weeks ago and he said that he is putting the program through now and it should be announced anyday. He told me that in an email on Feb 2nd. He said it would be pretty much the same as last year.
Yes...it would be nice knowing what they are actually paying BEFORE you race. Ugh.
Hey Sean...the bike looks nice. Seems like your bike fits me. :-) (I was at Donnie's opening.)
Mine is the ugly one hiding in the back of the shop.
I got a call from DNA today (12 February). I was told they will have the program up on the web within a few days.

Hey thanks. I apologize if I seemed like I was in a hurry, cuz I was. They were getting the slipper to work right and I was getting the PC hooked up and some other small stuff. Gotta thank Donnie Unger and Jason down ther for really getting the thing together and in time for Jennings this weekend to get it dialed in. Thanks to Duc Pond. The dyno #'s were real good. 77.11 and 53.59 ft lbs torque SAE. DIN was 78.88 HP and Uncorrected was 81
No problem.
Let me know how it handles. I'm guessing it might take a ew weekends to get the settings right. Your torque and hp numbers should put you ahead of a true supersport SV650. Good luck!
I have no clue what mine will put out in SS trim. Maybe 90hp & 70 torque? (DS1000) We'll see. The one I'm looking forward to is the other one....which will bea superbike version. :-)
How do you say "BOOM" in Italian? Oh yeah Ducati........ :ass:
sounds like there will be a couple more ducs out there this year. good to hear and good for donnie.
It should be real interesting.. Donnnie will have his hands full with that traitor Keener...LOL
I hate 1000's in LW. They all should be BANNED :) And at daytona it really sucks. Looks like I'll have to really do some motor work for the ROC
Engine work? Yeah....that's going to happen on the other DS1000 I picked up. :-)
And BadMonkey....go spank yourself. DOH!
why thank you , I think I will... :spank: :spank: :spank:

Where's your wife and my love child? (She's not furry like you...she must be mine!)
Sure you aren't coming down? Robert and I are staying across from the track. Looks like we'll have an open air garage as well. Wooohooooooooo. It' sbeen 9 months since I was on a track. I need some speed!!!
Damn, almost the start of the seaon and still nothing...!!!!! I thought for sure it would be this week.
I hope we see it by next week. Cause I'm definately gonna try for it on the Duc!!! :-)
You can doooooo it.. All night longggggggggggggggg
You been watching throuh the window AGAIN???? YA FREAK!!!
:-)
Window, I dont need no stinking window. Your wife gave me some webcams for christmas.... Try to find them..HEHE
Dude...you just admitted to watching my pasty ass on a webcam. I'm thinking you need profesional help. :-)
KNow anybody who might want a superbike SV? :-) (Minus dymags of course...they are going on the Duc)
MUHAHHAHAHA. I should have the supersport bike next monday .... lookng gooooood. :-)
2007 Ducati contingency has been posted.
CCS/WERA for most part = $300, $200, $100 for most - check your classes. Damn if they don't pay better out West :wtf:
Moto-ST is there too.
Maybe see you guys at Summit.....on an 2 piston, 4 plug, air head :biggrin:
Where is it posted??? I looked on CCS & Ducati websites.
But which bike ya gonna have? DS XXX?
I just got an email from nick mccabe- supposedly our local dealers should already have the info. Media announcement to follow today
CCS is $500, $300, $200
Yeah...but it looks like it's in coupons or something. Not 'real' cash. I figure the 800 will be the killer bike in ultra lightweight. In Thunuderbike it's prolly gonna be the 1000. :-)
Hi guys. I posted that as I've been putting together a Sport 1000 classic race program this week with my dealership(been there 8 years, blah blah) and potential investors and sponsors.
I've had a wild hair for this bike since last summer after a big Nelson Ledges crash in 600 practice.
Got bumped to expert, built a killer 750 superbike. Woke up after Valentine's posessed by Ducati aliens.
See you out there at Summit...look for the weird vintage fairing, true spoke wheels, and booming big Ducati twin- see if I can put a Duc on the ASRA grid for kicks.
Not expecting you guys to play nice-so I'll bring the beer-being the new to class guy- :cheers:

Gonna be the 800 :) They dont have the ROC or GNF cash awards this year!!!
Didn't you take it to the track this week? How did it handle? Any issues? (Since we have basically the same bikes....er....within 200cc's) :-)
Now I have to get the second bike to Donnie. MUHAHAHAHAH

He can't give you advice, you are the competition and you have an extra 200 cc.

Thats right. All I can say is I might be faster on the DUC and it handles great. It will be a challenge to beat a 1000 though. 200 more cc's is a lot in LW class ;)
tzrboy I think you might have followed me around during a champion sportbike event at vir 2 years ago, I was riding a hawk superbike.I just watched that vid. yesterday.I cant wait to get another. anyway I'll be on an old 900ss this year.the asra grid thing isn't a problem.see you there.

Good to know! Thanks. (If yours handles well..then I'd expect mine to work as well...Donnie has it right now.)
Shaaddup Arnie. And 200cc's? Only? Maybe for SS classes. Now for superbike classes I think there's room for more. :-)
Ha...Dont worry, mine will have some HP. IMHO, Better handling than the SV, lighter, more flickable, faster acceleration. But it costs more to do that than the SV. I'm not running SS classes, just SB
I'll just be riding my old ass 900 around.

Better handling than which generation of SV? I like the 99-02 versions better.
I take it you are happy with the bike. That bodes well. I believe we are relatively close in size. (Not anorexic midgets) Cool. Thanks for the update!
LtWt.29, that was me riding for Doug at Shadow Video for that Himmelsbach race school you attended 2 years ago-very fun(that's why we do the DVD's, now is the time to review them-now).
That was a trick Hawk, but now we can be friends in the pits...what with all these Ducs around and such.
Email me at the shop-let me know your schedule this year- sales@martinmoto.com
