Title: AMA might as well admit they suck and can't compete....

So AMA and WSBK were both at Miller this weekend. What a cop out with AMA running a different course layout so you couldn't even compare lap times. Pffft.

i don't believe that was an AMA decision. iirc, it was due to FGsport's requirement for different ontrack sponsorship for the tv coverage. given the schedule, it would have been impossible to swap signage multiple times during he day/weekend.

i also think that FGsport was concerned that the AMA superbikes would turn faster times with thier non-spec tires.
