Title: AMA & WSBK: Blake Young to race WSBK @ Donnington Post by: Spidey on June 22, 2009, 04:15:52 PM http://www.cyclenews.com/articles/road-racing/2009/06/22/blake-young-to-world-superbike (http://www.cyclenews.com/articles/road-racing/2009/06/22/blake-young-to-world-superbike)
It's the perfect storm this year --> Spies reminds the rest of the world that there are *real* racers in AMA. And DMG reminds AMA riders that there are other paddocks where they can ply their trade. Here's Mladin's take on it: amazing how 1 guy from AMA goes 2 WSB and wins, now team managers ovr there are saying they had no idea of the pace in AMA. They do now ;-) I love that guy. [laugh] Title: Re: AMA & WSBK: Blake Young to race WSBK @ Donnington Post by: zooom on June 22, 2009, 04:23:57 PM I just read it on Superbikeplanet.com as well!

I would remind everyone getting ready to tear me up [evil], that the top 20 qualifiers for WSBK this weekend were within 1 (one) second of each other. When was the last time AMA was that tight?

LOL Title: Re: AMA & WSBK: Blake Young to race WSBK @ Donnington Post by: gm2 on June 23, 2009, 02:18:12 PM blake is young (sic) and very fast. mladin has been saying since the beginning of the season that he needs to get out of here and into a world series, like, yesterday.
