AMA *SPOILER* AMA Superbike Race 1 Mid-Ohio

MotoVegas · 08-04-2008, 11:03 AM

So, I know most of you are bored by AMA Superbike, but for some reason I love watching the battle between Spies and Mladin. As per usual, this race result was no different. However, the way by which they got to the result was much less traveled. There were three, yes three red flags and a total of four, yes four starts to this race. So, you never know what your gonna see even when you *know* what the outcome is likely to be.

1. Mladin
2. Spies
3. Hacking

Restart 1 was after Hodgson's bike exploded oil all over the track and wiped out several riders. Restart 2 was after some dumb ass fan spilled water on the track from a bridge causing Mladin and Hacking to fall flat on their faces. Restart 3 was after Lynn's bike exploded into fire after a fall.

That was crazy with all the crashing and restarts. What a fiasco.

It was cool to see Hacking mixing it up in the Suzuki show.

I'm waiting for the day when he puts it together for the whole race rather than just part of it.

That was a clusterfuck of epic proportions.

I was watching the race from the keyhole and WOW....the crash that happened there.... Not once but twice for Miguel, then Lynn's bike, then the guy with the Pink bike (Forgot his name), and couple more... It was crazy but well entertaining.

I went to talk to Dean Mizdal and looked at his bike....well, look at what was left from his bike
