| Barber AMA Superbike Race Results ***SPOILER*** Race 1
1) Mladin
2) Yates
3) Spies
Race 2
1) Mladin
2) Hodgson
3) Spies
Phooking 'Zooks are going to be pretty unstoppable this year. I think we're going to see a lot more finishes just like these. Credit to Spies...the kid has a future.

| Re: Barber AMA Superbike Race Results ***SPOILER*** What's with all the "issues" with the 1kRR's of Roberts and Zemke! Steve Rapp put in some really good laps on his Superstock machine and was looking really good against some of the factory boys on their Superbikes. Spies is gonna be a force to reckon with...when Mladin retires some day  . |

| Re: Barber AMA Superbike Race Results ***SPOILER*** I think both the AMA superbike and world superbike are going to be 1 pony shows this year. Both are being dominated by 1 rider as well as 1 manufacturer. |

| Re: Barber AMA Superbike Race Results ***SPOILER*** Agreed, all those GSXRs looked great. Kind of a yawner, Mladin wins yet again by a huge margin. Another day at the office. |

He loves to back it in and wheelie whole straights....highly entertaining.
Watching him ride, even during a race, he just looks so excited to be out riding the bike!

| Re: Barber AMA Superbike Race Results ***SPOILER*** But don't fear fellow .orgers....next year is gonna be good....with a new RR, 10R, R1(hopefully in SBK)....should give the big Gix some comp...I will admit though, nothing and I do mean nothing(not even the mighty, all-conquering R1  ) can touch the Gixxer this year....Troy Corser looks like an absolute world-beater out there on the 1000....it's amazing how quickly the field has fallen off since last year...

No dyed hair (nothing personal, LTL!), no earrings, bling, tats, or whatever...just good talent at a young age. Kind of wished he rode for Honda.
I'm sure his mom helps keep him on the staright and narrow, too!

A walk through the AFM pits would show you how tame red hair really is.  |

| Re: Barber AMA Superbike Race Results ***SPOILER*** At least they're showing the RACING. I mean, Mladin gets little camera time, which is just fine with me. But when it comes down to it, at least in the AMA, Superbike has become as entertaining as F1 racing...which is to say it really ISN'T. Not when the guy who's leading after lap one is always the winner...and not when it's always the SAME guy. Where's the suspense?
Damn, you can't even root for the poor Honda-mounted guys. "C'mon, Miguel...get that fourth-place finish! One spot off the podium ain't THAT bad!" As if.
Next year, my friends. |

| Re: Barber AMA Superbike Race Results ***SPOILER*** Haven't seen many F1 races lately, huh? The rule nazis have made this year's F1 more like you beloved redneck circle-jerk. Even you may be able to keep up with the action in F1 now. |

I give it to the Australians, they're some fast ass riders.
But just wait, there's a search on right now, deep in Alabama or Kentucky, for some red-neck, down syndromed snake handler that will make Nicky Hayden, and the Hayden clan look slow as hell... |

| Re: Barber AMA Superbike Race Results ***SPOILER*** Are you talking about Craggill? He's been around forever, tried his hand in WSBK and has been racing AMA for a couple years now. He's nothing special whatsoever.
Mladin is a great rider in the AMA. He has an excellent team around him and a great bike at the moment. It's taken him a long time to get there, though. |
