No Superstock because the class is probably going to be eliminated for 09 in the AMA Series. Also Yamaha wants some guys running the new R6.:yes

You guys may want to contact the AMA and the teams planning to run that class, and let them know about it. :lol :rofl

Seriously though, I haven't heard anything about the class being removed in 08 and not a concrete confirmation for 09. Although I would say very likely. Some guys have signed to run the Superstock class in 08, so maybe I'm missing something. :confused


Ride safe.

"According to Yamaha Racing boss Keith McCarty, the company decided to move Ben Bostrom from Superstock into Supersport due to an announced AMA plan to eliminate the Superstock class in 2009, and because Yamaha wants to highlight the new, 2008 YZF-R6."

Guess we were a year off....:)
