Well, looks like a run what you brung, no points, no championship, win or go home.
Sounds a lot like Formula USA. (Remember Team Roberts bringing a brace of Yamaha factory GP 500s).
First round at what-was-Miller in Utah. I loved seeing WSBK there (even though they ran AMA on a separate track, that was amusing).
I just loved how the bikes would pull down that enormous front straight.
Interesting that both Edwards and Duhamel have teams.
The biggest issue, for me, is the reason for all of the rules and what not are to balance the racing.
Obviously a (ostensibly) well funded team (like Edward and Duhamel I'm assuming are) will likely prevail. Whether they can compete with each other is the big question. Or is someone just going to run away at the gate. Runaway racing isn't interesting at least to me as a fan.
It will be curious who else shows up. Back in the day, they used to have the Toyota 200 out at Willow. $50,000 top prize.
But, pretty much everyone who showed up were just local cub racers. Josh Hayes was there with a team, but couldn't race (being under contract with AMA). So, simply, it seems all of the riders "in the show" can't go (they can't risk it), so we get all the riders who aren't in the show.
Anyway, hope to see some highlights when it runs. Best of luck to the teams.
