AMA: Road America Day 3 Race Results and Twitter Report

Shawn Higbee at Road America
Fewer crashes in DSB and a surprise ending in Superbike. That pretty much sums it up. Still a bit disappointed that the Transformers livery was so short-lived.

@MatMladin up at 4am this morning. Mind still racing. Just want to get out there and tear it up. 10:20 warm up (45f brrrrrrrr), 3pm race, Rock'n Roll.

@MatMladin I sent resume to KR re Moto 2 class for 2010. He said he wants young Americans. How about an old Aussie. Goes hard and will ride 4 food ;-)

@chazdavies Looks like we're in for a cool but dry one today. It's nice to have a mixed weekend with 1 wet, 1 dry race I think. Will try for redemption!

@Meligirl13 Practice in less than an hour... Ground still pretty wet... Looks like a dry race. Here's to redeeming myself!

@OnTheThrottleTV Good Morning from the North Pole...um...Road America. 45% of the riders crashed in the Sportbike race yesterday. Average race speed 76mph

@OnTheThrottleTV Erion Fuel DQ update. Bike fuel was tested 4 times, was out of spec 2 of them. Fuel in cans in pits only passed the color test. It was green

@MsXXFAST http://twitpic.com/6ue20 - @cspeedphoto and @ShawnHigbee on the grid

@paradigmracing Damo=17th...race is over.

@23race American Superbike about to go out for parade lap. Sun is shining, track is dry, and temp has gone up.

@superbikeplanet Superbike podium http://twitpic.com/6uvib

@23race Championship Standings after Round 6: Geoff May P6 with 161 points and Aaron Yates P7 with 152.

@chazdavies Unfortunately things weren't so good today. I finished 8th after a few good battles. I lost the group to 4th after a gearbox issue and....

@chazdavies ...couldn't recover the lost ground. 4th was possible all being well today but the front 3 were in another league. Home tomorrow :-)

@MatMladin Frustrating would be an understatement. I absolutely hate being constantly passed in a straight line. I wasn't a very good loser today.

@MatMladin glad not to many tracks have three 6th gear straights. congrats to Larry and his team. Larry and his folks do a great job every year finding

@MatMladin sponsors and showing up with a good outfit.

@OTTeditor Great race weekend from Rd Am all around. So much video to do!

@Tommy24racing Ohh yeas, this weekend was at best...... Bad. lol worst weekend for me and josh ever. Can only go up from there!! :D Next race, ohh yeas:)
