Just an FYI, Martin Szwarc and David Anthony both run AFM. As a matter of fact, unless there is another David Anthony from Murrieta, CA, he took 1st last weekend in 600P with AFM. Currently 3rd in overall points.

Wow. They are already making excuses for WSBK and they haven't even raced there yet. Maybe what Hodgson says maybe true......interesting. Can't wait!!

I know, too bad they're not both running the same configuration.  I'm sure they're not on purpose.

I believe the reason behind them not running the same configuration is because of advertising. WSBK has their banners on the perimeter course, AMA has theirs on the infield part of the course. (TV exposure thing)

yeesh. Haven't they heard of virtual ads yet? All they have to do is watch a baseball game to see how they work :)
