I know how I felt when I read this.  What is your reaction?

So how'd you feel?

[EX#996]

Well, to be truthful....

hurt
pissed
and one of those....  "well it figures"

For MAM it makes perfect business sense...  The Tularis is a unique motorcycle that draws attention no matter where it goes.  Attention from both the public and the media.

Personally however, we have put a lot of time and effort into this sport.  We bring as many people as we can to the track with us.  I forward the sites to my friends and family and say "Hey, look at this!"  Thank goodness for Lockhart Phillips and their program.  Contingency money is good, if it ever comes (p.s.  don't change tire brands or your screwed.   :'()

OK.....  I'll stop whining now.  I just wish, that someone would say, "Hey, let me get that for you."  Just once.

So who was the ex-500 Moto GP champ?

I like the track, it's fun, but it's  f l a t.

Dirt bikes, watercraft, sounds cool. I still remember coming down the straight racing a drag car when poof, it's red parachute opened while I was braking for turn one. Kinda cool. :)

Dawn, uh, let me get that for you.  ;D

It was Matt Wait.  

Ah... Well, they can put me down then too, I road a Kawasaki EX-500 once.  ;D :P

No disrespect to Matt Wait, it's just I hear that too much--this is as close to a gp track as it gets... whatever...

Ah... Well, they can put me down then too, I road a Kawasaki EX-500 once.  ;D :P

Many years ago, I road a Kawasaki KZ400 and proptly high-sided it....  The first words out of Paul's mouth - "Look what you did to my bike!

Sheesh!

If Jensen ever ran any events at MAM in the future, wouldn't that kinda present a conflict of interest?

That will be interesting.  I don't think I've ever heard of a track sponsoring a machine or rider before?

Why he is not sponsored by the organization holding the races (ala AOD) but by the track and as long as the track does not offiacte the race how would it be a conflict of interest?
