Somebody on the show mentioned the track surface is coming apart in places. I wondered if they may have crack sealed the shutdown area with something that got greasy when it warmed up. The front tire on those bikes is narrow and smooth. Are the bikes using the carbon brakes that are causing some racers issues? 200+ mph with no chute, Maybe they should start spraying the shut down area. shruggy

In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is.
