Reposted from Buell racing: Rob, I must agree, what is rumored is just not in Erik's character.....ever. And a 15th is just fine for your start with such limited resources. You also probably gave EBR bikes a point or two in the mfgr points to give them a third place. Well done. Do you think I will be seeing you guys at Millers. Please keep us "believers" in touch. Best wishes to continue living your dream. Bob |

Congrats Danny, Goeff & Shawn! Fantastic racing results. Good to see Shawn finish. It'll be interesting to see Shawn battle his way forward with the bike dialed in the way he wants it. Good luck guys. Hang in there, Rob. I feel so proud to see the EBRs in Superbike, especially yours. |

Well stated court! Keep the dream alive fellas and don't give this nonsense anymore of your time. It just helps to distract you from your goals. Enjoy your time on the track. Best of luck, skill and passion. I for one would love to see you all find your niche and tear up the race track. LETS GO ROB AND EBR!!! |

WOW! What a weekend! That was 4 days of hard work and FUN! That is S A T I S F A C T I O N ! I believe Higbee/ Crotchrocket tv finished the weekend on a very positive note and are feeling very upbeat. We all had an amazing time, and I feel fortunate to have played a part in the story, and hope I may have the opportunity to do it again! And what can I say about EBR? Their results speak for themselves, what a class act they have going on there! And the help they gave us, well, unbelievable! And don't forget what makes a race team run, if you like seeing an EBR out there besides just the factory team, I'm sure Higbee/ Crotchrocket tv, Shawn and Rob, could use all the support they can get! And again, many thanks much kudos to Jim and Terry of JTS performance at Sears Point (Infineon) for all their huge amount of truly invaluable help, what a class act those guys are in so many ways and so many fields!

quote: Court - "Truth is . . . quite the opposite . . the folks at Buell, with damn limited resources, have done everything within their power, both corporately and PERSONALLY, to insure that every Buell racing does the best that it can."
I can attest to this, even as a low rung guy running club races, Erik and EBR have assisted me in my efforts in any way they can. Truly looking out for their own, and it's an awesome experience! |

Hearts of Lions, backs of steel. This is how I describe the CrotchRocket.tv AMA volunteers. Brice, Ray, Dean, Rick, Steve, Sunny, Terry, Jim, Christine, Mike and others whom I met or saw in the pits but who's names by aging brain can't remember. I think the entire NorCal Buell gang must have pitched in at one point or another. You all are simply the best of the best. This is one case where the parts are greater that the whole, and the whole is huge. My pockets are empty, but my heart and soul are full, so I came out ahead. Thank you all. You are a gift. Several racers come up to Shawn and tell him how amazing it is for us to still be showing up. Dave McGrath, head of AMA Racing, came up to me and thanked me for what we are doing "on both a professional and personal level" I was stunned. I especially want to thank Erik, who came to our rescue in our darkest hour, and who rallied his troops to our cause. I only hope that we can do him justice. Then there is Shawn, who has much more to offer as a rider than we have been able to provide him, but he hangs in there with us. There is something here that is bigger than racing. I don't know what to call it, but it is alive and hungry and wants to grow. I simply must figure out how to keep feeding it. I bears the sweetest of fruit. |

Don't mind at all helping you guys work your way to the front.I'll help however I can either by donation or showing up at the track again to help. I had no doubt that Erik and crew would step up to the plate.You all should be respected highly for your accomplishments. |
