Well, now they can try to survive without my dollars too.

Maybe I will just attend the RACE regionals instead at shannonville.

RACE will be running a 250 Ninja series for kids, where PCSB has CBR125s. They'll be running an endurance race in August. I'm there virtually every round.

Update: Now if you race a R1 or any 2010 model of Yamaha, you can't do it in the Canadian national series.

Yup, doesn't matter. You can run your 2009- R6 in 2010, but your R1 of ANY year is out in Superbike.

Wow.

Organizers added that they plan, and look forward to, reinstating Yamaha in the Feature category when the manufacturer is able to return to participate in the Parts Canada Superbike Championship Series.
I hope Yamaha tells them to go fuck themselves.

Yamaha already did, by bowing out of national series support this season. This is the 'return fire.'

I have a bunch of buddies that race in that. Unfortunately I rarely make it out (still 3 hours away for me) but plan to this year.

Sad but unfortunately Canada just doesn't have the support.

Deal! I'll schedule a weekend as pit bitch with Timmy around my own track days and side business ventures. Going to be a busy summer!
