AMA is probably paying him some huge premium to get some names back in the field, that's my guess.

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

They'd find a ride for him if that were the case.  What's he gonna race -- a Zuke?  That said, I'd like to see Hayes and Mladin going at one another, either on the same or different hardware.  As it stands now, AMA SBK is about watching Hayes turn laps while Herrin and a random Zuke occasionally duke it out.  In fact, it's not really about watching Hayes because he takes off and is off the screen in a lap or two while the producer in the booth desperate searches around for something interesting happening further back in the pack.

Nope...

I think it's a perfect fit.

Mladin and DMG. [thumbsup]

i am a conspiracy theorist

it is probably a whole pitch developed to get racing nerds to talk about AMA pooperbike.

"Mladin considers returning to AMA superbike"
"What's he going to ride?!! ZOMFG!"
"Mladin negoiates with Kamapooyu, Suzanda, Ducarly and Bajaj for a ride."
"Mladin secretly developing new SBK with unknown manufacturer."

I plan to list the Federal Gov't. as a dependent on my next 1040 tax filing!

I have flying honey badgers and I'm not afraid to use them!

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

CONFIDENCE: the feeling you have right before you understand the situation.

He's got the career ending Rossi shoulder.  Stick a fork in him.

I like The Ben but he's dangerously close to following in The Hooper's footsteps. [roll] Lot's of talent and potential but fast becoming damaged goods. Would you want to sign him up to an extended contract for another year at this point in the season?

Telling ya'. He should have listened to me and signed with a top flight WSBK team. [laugh]
