Mike has new hobbys now. He's busy golfing, smoking cigars, and ruining the Charlotte Bobcats.

He should pursue running BMWs for this season. The "stock" bike puts as much power to the ground and his American Superbike did last season. Kinda like to see Aaron Yates piloting a S1000RR.

Things to come? Exactly what planet have you been exploring for the last year-and-a-half?

Probably a "first row".

As I said before - NEXT YEAR the AMA SBK "Winner's Purse" will be their choice of a Chinese-made Gucci or Versacci knockoff.........
(with an AMA/DMG cap and bumper-sticker for 2nd and 3rd, respectively)

We're in US Moto-racing's "Golden Years".




You should jump in the middle of that, MOKE. You might have a shot at bein' a top-ten finisher.............

Yeah right, I can't even afford a trackday these days much less an AMA event. It probably cost more to enter and prep then I would make even winning!

With how many there will be at the starting grid, MOKE will be a top 5 finisher........and that is by just finishing! We can all thank Mat Mladin for his wonderful contribution to AMA racing over the last 10 years by chasing all the fans away. Good going Mat!
