Pro Racing Privateer Winning or podium???

[Bigsexy]

I thought Tommy put a bike on the pole at BIR back in the early 90's.
as for who to cheer for this year id say all of the MW guys could use a nice big fan club, i know of a few guys running
Scotty Ryan
Rob Oliva
Mark Shnettler
Matt Hall
Brian Hall
so ill be cheering for these guys. good luck to all. sorry if i missed you im sure there are more

Last true one was probably Chuck Chouinard at Loudon, however there were extenuating circumstances like rain and none of the factory riders running.

Superstock probably has the best chance because nobody is in it this year.

Supersport has 18 factory or factory supported riders team riders in it this year....

FX has 12 factory or factory supported team riders in it this year....

[Scotty Ryan]

Super Dave, Meghan, Mike Riebe and myself are on our way to Topeka - and Dave thinks that it was 85'when Tommy put himself on pole at BIR. But something happened with the weather and they couldn't run the races. Just thought I would mention.

2001 Chuck Chouinard finished 3rd in 750 Supersport at Loudon, then was disqualified because his valves were cleaned using a scotchbrite pad during a rebuild.

I won 600 Supersport that year at Loudon after the factory riders boycotted the race because the AMA wouldnt allow the riders a practice session before the race began... so the factory riders sat out the event.

Other so called Privateers have been on the podium in AMA since - including Eslick, May, Barnes, Attard and others... but I have a hard time calling them privateers with their salaries and semi's.

I will be routin for the youngest grenade launcher I saw go(fast foward)  at Daytona this year- a thrilling ride for scotty 727- catman predicts BIG FUTURE!

[Mongo]

Damnit, went with the wrong fast guy at Loudon - sorry Scott!  Your win is what I was thinking of and I agree on the privateer thing.

I'll be rooting for Brian Hall. I have his bikes from last year and went up to speedtech this weekend to drop off my old beat down R1, and saw his 07's. They are cool. And anyone that can go out on their *own* bike and finish 14th in their very first AMA race is sure to make leaps and bounds with time. I wish them all the best, but that's my pick.
I'll be watching this year with a lot of interest.  

[racerhall]

thanks Mike but that wasnt my first time, only my first ama race last year that i finished
this year will be better, missed you at nesba over the weekend at blackhawk

[Court Jester]

I thought that was your first one. either way, still a hell of a job for not having a full team.
I had too much running to get done and not a huge nesba fan. i'll be at topeka and then at black hawk may 5th.
