    Daytona 200

    Never thought I'd see the day when Steve Rapp, Ben Attard, and Michael Barnes would make up the podium. Props to the three of 'em!

    The new Kawi 6R looked pretty impressive. Took first and second in both Formula Extreme and Supersport. GO TEAM GREEN!!!!

    Re: Daytona 200

    Even more exciting to me is the performance of our home town guy, Ricky Orlando. In a field of 65 professional roadracers he brought it home in 17th. Additionally I THINK that his ride there this year means that he has more miles in the 200 than any other rider in history.

    Nice work!

    Re: Daytona 200

    I don't know what's worse for Honduh, Pedrosa taking Nicky out, or the 2 top Daytona contenders running out of gas within 2 corners of each other......DOH!

    Still think it's stupid to make the minibike race the 200 instead of the Superbikes. It really means that there are only DuHamel and Zemke as "name" riders in the 200. Sad. But, congrats to all those smart enough, fast enough, consistant enough, and good enough at math to win it and get on the box!

    Re: Daytona 200

    Too bad the Honda's had trouble, that would have been one of the best daytona 200's ever. Duhamel, Hayes, Barnes, Rapp were all head to tail the first 21 laps. However, congrats to Attack Kawasaki for having the best pit stops up and down the lane. Not one mistake and thats what put Rapp and Attard on the podium. Rapp was defiantely fast and I'm sure would have finished on the podium even if the Honda's didn't have trouble.

    Watch out for the kawi's in the 600 classes this year!

    Scer's got it right...fuel pump failure is what happened. Gotta guess that they all came out of the same lot of parts and that they all had some kind of defect.

    ....or is that just what Honduh is telling us to save face? I've seen them do that before.......
