..the day DMG begins to understand that motorcycle racing is not auto racing.

good news, slightly unfortunate.  but the (apparent) new DMG rules were going to sink the OEMs.  and sales are bad enough as it is.

I admire their spirit.  If you're not getting what you want, then go build it for yourself.

I already watch virtually no AMA stuff on TV and only attend the Mid-O Vintage event now. But with the new NASC.. err, DMG rules coming, I don't have to worry about changing my viewing habbits. They can't get "prototype" sportscar racing right, why should I believe they'll get motorcycle racing right?

I think it's great that the MIC wants something better than what DMG has proposed....and are willing to do something to get it.

I just hope it's better than what the AMA had. Undecided
