What happened to Hopkins? Two DNFs?

Both mechanicals. I think his engine let go in the first race. It was pretty early -- the first couple of laps. I didn't see the second, but it was another mechanical. Not a good start for him.

the media has been unusually silent about that one.

They will when he wins and the blinding light from his smile causes someone to go blind.

So for those of us not overly interested in the AMA anymore, does anyone have factory ride out there?
There is zero direct factory support in the superbike series, no? Are there any full-factory rides out there in any class?
Will Hopper have cosmetic surgery to fix those silly ears?
Please advise!

the yoshimura suzukis and josh hayes' yamaha are 'factory'. direct factory support, whatever. the yam is in-house at Graves, but it's factory.. sorta. yosh has always been factory-but-not, as in factory but run out of yosh here in CA. no honda or kawis.
but that's all sorta not relevant -- the AMA rules since last year mean all the superbikes are essentially superstockish. they aren't very super anymore. hopper
could
win... just like a jordan bike, etc

i want to concur.. but i don't yet. i'm afraid he may have lost his nerve. i sure as hell would have by now.
edit: then again, we should wait at least til he's on a track he's been to before. and that isn't daytona.

+1, I think he's fallen off that pony one too many times. I reckon when when he's riding now there a big red, flashing "MORTALITY" light blinking in his brain.
He really should fix those ears though.
