Brian: I thought the new BMW 1000RR would be more your style especially since you're selling German engineering anyway...

Joe Lee has an order on one...I'll find out the story....intrigues me as well......the question is who wrenches on it....TJ from Corse would prolly be able to.

I'm thinking M3 against the A4 Quatro - fair fight? Not sure the M comes in all-wheel though...

Will there be contingency?

Well, first, what would be the target market of such a machine? Probably going to be pretty exclusive, price wise. So, it might follow that they are looking for some bigger profile opportunities. American Superbike seems logical, and it would be required if they were submit it for homologation.

Historically, they haven't had the sales numbers to have a lot of regular contingency. They made a splash in the cycle place by offering contigency on it's non streetable RS250. But regular opportunities from them, Ducati, Triumph...been very light. The others have higher global sales, additional profits from other products that can finance a contingency program.
