"Your press materials raise more questions than they answer. How about
you field a few questions live, vs. via e-mail, starting with, what's
the 2009 schedule, what tracks do you have? What teams will participate
now that Yamaha has declared its intent to run in the DMG series? What
operational staff do you have? What are you going to do for Airfence,
since the existing fleet went with DMG, and how are you going to deploy
whatever you replace it with? What are you going to do for timing and
scoring? What will the purse and contingency payouts be? What are you
going to do for the non-factory teams and riders who make up everything
past the first two rows of the grid?
We had 12 bikes finish one of the Superbike races at Cal Speedway
earlier this year, and several of them were actually Superstock bikes.
How are you going to get more than the existing nine Superbikes on the
grid?
How many of the 300+ MIC member firms have signed off on this plan?
After AMA established Paradama, it bled red ink for more than a decade,
sometimes requiring periodic cash infusions of as much as $750,000 at a
time. Is USSB a for-profit and if so how much red ink will MIC accept,
and over what time period?"
Heh, reminds me of all those clowns riding around with surfboards when
they couldn't even swim...
