68

AS I HAVE HEARD, THE AMA WERE AWARE AFTER VIR HE WAS 11 MILE AN HOUR FASTER IN THE STRAIGHT'S, BUT IT WAS NOT TILL LATE SUNDAYTILL THEY FOUND THIS OUT,  SO THEY WERE AWAIGHTING HIM AT BARBER, HE WAS UNFORTUNATE ENOUGH TO GET CAUGHT, HE WAS ASKED TO TEAR DOWN AND HE RESPONDED THAT HE WAS NOT QUALIFIED TO DO THIS , THE AMA AGREE OK THIS WAS FAIR ALMOST FINED HIM JUST $300.00 AND LET IT GO TILL , HE SLIPPED AND TOLD THAT THE MOTOR THEM D.S. HAD BUILT THE MOTOR AND HE WAS THERE AT THE TRACK. SO THIS MADE CHANGES (D.S.) HE DID ADMIT TO BUILD THE MOTOR BUT DID NOT INSTALL THIS 750 MOTOR INTO THE 600 FRAME , AT THIS POINT THE AMA RELIZED THERE WERE ONLY 4 OF 6 BOLTS HOLDING ON THE MOTOR. $1000.00 FINE AND DQ.

MOTOR OR NO MOTOR!! he rode like hell to finish that well. Motor only doesnt get you over the line in front of everyone else. He cheated?? yes.. but still to finish that high in an AMA event.. some credit is due folks.. 8)

No credit due to a cheater.  Period.

Yes, he had to ride a hell of a race, and I'm sure he is very talented.  But a 750 engine?   ::)
