Reality (finally) set's in..
According to meeting participants who spoke on the condition that they
not be named because they agreed not to comment, the promoters were
unimpressed by the MIC's lack of a specific organizational plan to
promote a rival series, an idea being spearheaded by American Honda's
Ray Blank and American Suzuki's Mel Harris.
"There won't be an MIC Series," said one racetrack representative.
The promoters responded favorably to DMG's offer to replace lost
sponsorship should Honda and Suzuki refuse to sponsor AMA Superbike
races and involved racetracks in 2009 and beyond, the sources said.

Will the track group be the folks who nudge the "renegade" OEM's back
to the fold, or is our "journey to the dark side" almost complete?
