This year there really is no reason a "privateer" team like RRW can't challenge for wins. They're one of the most organized and well funded ( I assume) teams on the grid. If Chris can't put it on the top of the box and challenge for wins in 2010, no excuse but "I don't have what it takes to win at this level", will do.
fwiw, rrw and m4 aren't the same team... rrw racing is owned by chris and team m4 monster energy suzuki is owned by john.

all depends on the guy on the bike. chris is fast-club-racer fast, not fast beat-the-top-5-AMA guys fast.

you mean like Zemke on the privateer Jordan 'Zuke?
that privateer distinction doesn't have much meaning anymore in the AMA. esp not for teams like jordan/NG.

IMDB told me that the movie was released in 1996.
and MaBell split up in 1984 (no, George Orwell had nothing to do with it! ) ->
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bell_System_divestiture
.....In 1994, Bell Atlantic became the first Regional Bell Operating Company to entirely drop the original names of its original operating companies.....
.....In a merger announced on March 5, 2006 and executed on December 29, 2006, AT&T Inc. acquired BellSouth for approximately $86 billion (1.325 shares of AT&T for each share of BellSouth)[3] The combined company retained the name AT&T. The merger consolidated ownership of Cingular Wireless and YELLOWPAGES.COM, both of which were joint ventures between BellSouth and AT&T.
With the merger completed, wireless services previously offered by Cingular Wireless are now offered under the AT&T name. In addition, BellSouth has formally become AT&T South, its Bell Operating Company doing business as AT&T Southeast, and ceased doing business under the BellSouth name on June 30, 2007....
so it was within the realm of possibility that the tourney in Happy Gilmore could have been sponsored by one of the Bell entities that may have still used the old Ma Bell logo and "Bell" name still....
sorry to threadjack a lil bit....

I find it interesting that in 1996 a golfer purportedly earned/won $17K for 18th place....[granted it's a movie]
and in 2010 a motorcycle racer earns $5K for winning?
I guess it's easy to tell which series has higher tv numbers.

look at the total purse for golf for each round ( and there are how many in a season??? ) and then how many rounds in the AMA and the total purses available per round......and it looks extroidinarily pathetic in comparo....and it does somewhat boil down to race management and race promotion taking a huge cut( not that they should work for free OR that they don't do work to earn what they get)....but if the show ain't gettin paid, then there soon won't be a show!....promotion and race management needs to woo big name sponsors to get off their wallets and pony up some cash and they certainly ain't doin that or at least seem like they aren't! ( and I thought that was half of the promise that DMG was supposed to deliver with the Francis family connection)...all it seems like they have done most effectively is to scare away the manufacturers that were ponying up the most to support the series....
