I plan to list the Federal Gov't. as a dependent on my next 1040 tax filing!

I have flying honey badgers and I'm not afraid to use them!

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

yeah, it'll probably happen

but this article is from MCN.. and they just say 'planned'.  i.e. this is the same report that's come out about 5 times.  every time they have a (not very) secret test.

Sayonara CRT.....?

ultimately, that is what DORNA wants...CRT was a bandaid for the lack of machinery out on the grid and to help aid in the exponential costs versus a factory machine.

And don't forget the Honda leases.
Some teams may go that route as it would be cheaper than developing a factory's bike for them...
