AMA is horrible.  No Miller, no Laguna.  They can't afford to run with everyone else.  They cut the schedule so thin it is like club racing.

I think Laguna and Miller charges to much for the events. Is AMA short on money too???

AMA is horrible. 

Even though i don't know much about racing, I agree wholeheartedly.

Since DMG took over AMA has been a farce and I refuse to go to any DMG run event in the hopes that those NASCAR idiots will bail and we'll emerge with a real series again.

We lost Roger Hayden to WSBK now too... Good for him! http://www.superbikeplanet.com/2010/Jan/100102b.htm

Jason, I also hear that the retired Mat Mladin is thinking about WSBK for 2010. I guess Suzuki has made him an amazing deal. I hope he does it. And Hell Yeah for RLH.

AMA/DMG charges the track $200-250K to bring their show, it's up to the promoter to decide if the AMA show is worth the money. The promoter has to sell enough tickets to cover costs plus make some profit...

That's why Miller is now putting on their own support races at the SBK event. They figure that they can put on a good show for a lot less money.
(Prize money will be better for the racers, too, after AMA's big purse-money reduction for 2010!)

Rumors are circulating that AMA will be at Laguna as support races for Moto GP, no doubt the track is trying to get AMA to reduce the price.

Me too, I can't wait.  I use to love ama racing, now it is a farce.  I think there is only a few racers at 1 or 2 tracks now that can be worth while to watch.  I tune in the big time now, if it gets any speed coverage.
