Roger, it's been a long time.
 Great to hear of the MOTO-ST Series.
Good luck in ALL coming attractions.

Roger, I always knew you liked bikes more than cars.

Welcome back to the two wheeled world. It sounds like an interesting series and I wish you all good luck with it.

I'll do them with you if you go. This would be fun! Now we just need to build a 200 hp Ducati 999 to take advantage of our riding style: Park it in the corners and accelerate like mad!!!

Thanks Roger! Good question Alexa. Looks like I'll have to get a twin ready for October...

I would love to see someone turn up to the post race tech and run double the HP class limits on the dyno :)

the only thing i can say about the classes is that they have a lightweight twins class, a middleweight twins class, why not make a heavyweight twins class with a 130hp limit?

That way the SV1000, RC51, 999 (not 'R') and Aprilia will have somewhere to play as well.  It's not like adding another class will take up too much track space as i think the grids may be quite light for some of the rounds...

Well it worked at Gingerman ::)  ;D

. It does, however, give us the ability to run the classic course at Daytona and reduces the likelihood of other facilities becoming obsolete in the near future.

Classic Course at Daytona??  Does this mean the west horseshoe, the dog leg AND the orginal chicane??      Now that sounds like FUN!!

If anyone see's more info on this series... please post.

It's a shame you have to run spec tires. We were all looking forward here to running the race in october.I think having a spec tire severly limits your options.

entry for the 8 hour race at Daytona in OCT is $1000 +++ ($125 per hour plus registration ...ect ect )
www.moto-st.com  I think the idea is great with HP limited spec classes but the fees are a bit stiff....

[PJ]

Yeah, but check out the purse...

As for spec tires, that's one of the reasons I recently switched from Dunlop to Pirelli. Game on.

Just looked up the website.  www.moto-st.com
Was wondering what bikes were slotted in which categories.

Anybody know why they wouldn't let an SV run in teh GrandSport GST class, 75 min to 90 max HP, seems right in the SV line of power with basic work.
The SVs are only shown in the Sport Twins which is 75 HP or less.  So stock or nothing.

Just wondering as I am sure I am missing something in it all.

Still seems like a lot of fun and would be good to see them reach out to some other tracks.
