So, it receive the AMA Pro Superbike Championship schedule today .
They call it a PRO Series, but ONLY schedule 8 races all year. Which are:
March 10-12 Daytona
May 13-15 Sonoma, Cal
May 28-29 Tooele, Utah
June 3-5 Elkhart Lake, Wis
July 8-10 Lexington, Ohio
July 22-24 Monterey, Cal
Aug 12-12 Alton, Va
Sept 2-4 Millvile, NJ
Now, I don't know about you, but only 8 races (I consider 2 heats per weekend, one race and NOT 2 races at this level) in 7 months is a little slim for a Pro Racing schedule that is suppose to be on a World Class Level. So, just why would the Big 4 come back ? When if you miss one, point wise, YOUR PROBABLY OUT ! Even Petit LeMans Endurance Sports Car Racing has more races that this.
No races in April or November, which would add at least two races to catch up if you have a bad weekend. And the LOCATIONS !!! It's either Extreme East Coast or West Coast except for one in Wis. and the other in Ohio. So unless you live in Cal., you can only see ONE race without traveling 500 to 1000 miles or more. Let alone, no Barber, Road Atlanta or Texas racing for anyone below the Mason Dixon Line. Well, Daytona, but that's another animal anyway and not a stand alone motorcycle race. Geezzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz, AMA really knows how to get people to follow and attend there races. And don't forget. Speed shows the races at MIDNIGHT . Which shows how much they think of the series. NO wonder the Big 4 left
