I have no idea if he is, or not, but I do believe mandating a generic
ECU in a prototype series is even more *dumber* than suggesting a spec
tire. I, for one, hope they share the same fate...

Well, they've done exactly that in F1, and F1 is still a lot more high
tech that MotoGP.

So, if it's good for 4 wheels, (IMO, it isn't) it's twice as good for 2?

He might have that article, but for the most part DA and Nusbaum are
poles apart...

I'm undecided on the whole traction control thing. On the one hand, I
want racers (car and bike) to be running the whole machine, for the
whole race, with their skill. On the other, I can see that racing is
meant to improve the breed, and maybe traction control is a good thing
on the street (it's certainly handy in freezing weather on my 330
BMW). So I really don't know.
However, I do think that a standard ECU is a step too far. F1 is
already way down that road, mandating the number of cylinders even,
but I still like the fact that the bikes are still trying lots of
things. But, I guess they will all hit on the same optimum solution
to the problem, so, like in the 500 days, everyone will be running the
same layout with the same bore and stroke.
