VIR

Wondering how many are going to VIR in Aug 15-17 AMA Superbike Championship

Plus Jason Britton's stunt bike show.

I'd like to go... but probably won't. I went a couple of years ago... boy, that was an eye opener! My first time & when those guys come down that straight they are haulin' ***!

My local CMA chapter was going to go, but I don't know if I will be able.

Seven of my friends and I are going 60 bucks a day is steep but it will be fun.

Angus, I think that I'm going to take a day ride out to VIR on Sunday morning to see the finals. I'm out around 3ish hours from the venue. Are you guys riding out there?

FYI, Yamaha will be bringing one of Rossi's M1s this weekend. See the Roadracing World article here - unfortunately, I'm in Florida

Yes I plan on riding there Jarmo is coming also I think there will be 8 of us I plan on doing the parade lap.

I was there...saw some fjrs and ran into a fellow EOM alumni. Boring superbike race as usual but awesome event none the less.

Boring? The last time that I went it certainly wasn't boring.

That said, I didn't get to go this year. I was too busy riding w/ some of the NC crew & Teerex51 in and outside of Blowing Rock, NC.

As I rode home on Rte 58 & was passing the road to VIR I was wondering who won this year.

I went to the race this year. It was good but I have not been following racing this year like I had in the past. For me it makes it much better if you know the points leaders & have favorite riders/teams before seeing the event.

We had a great time a freind and I did the parade lap loved it seen three Blue FJRs and 1 Black Cherry. Had a 7 dollar burger and 5 dollar beer. Matt Maladin dominated the race.

Yes it "certainly" was a boring Superbike race....that's correct, that's what I said. Not a boring event though and the other races were better.

I didn't miss what you said. Sorry that there was little joy for you.
