    500GP, has gone too a four stroke format, Now called Moto-GP, similar to
    WSBK, Is WSBK going to be discontinued?

    Apparently AMA SBK is going to be discontinued. They're going to replace
    it with club 600ss racing. if the grids get a bit thin, they'll make up
    the numbers with some 1350cc twins.

    Seriously, what the hell is happening? No Suzukis, coz stock inlets
    isn't fair. No Hondas because Honda don't want to race the SP2 any more
    and the CBR may not be win everything in it's first year. No Yamahas
    because they can't be bothered. No Kawasakis because the ZXR750 really
    is too old now and the ZX10 has something wrong (suspension, engine,
    wheels, riders, chassis, stickers, they'll find something). No Aprilias
    because the USA doesn't buy scooters. No Ducatis because Xaus wants to
    ride MotoGP. Maybe they'll just fill the grid with privateers on stock
    GSXR1000 with noisy pipes and no-one will notice that there's nothing
    left. Then when everyone turns up for Daytona on the Sunday they can say
    that the race actually ran the day before at the same time as
    Supercross.

    I mean, WTF?
