Loud pipes lose bikes. Granny's burnouts. Daytona 200 on a Saturday? We are still crashing too much. It's showtime.
Daytona 200 May Finally Run on Saturday
We know lots of people who go to Daytona Beach every March and who have never seen the Daytona 200, America's biggest motorcycle race, even though they say they would like to. The reason is that they have to head home by Sunday morning, and they can't stay for the race on Sunday afternoon. The folks at Daytona may finally have realized that they need to time their race so the motorcyclists who come to town can see it, if this report is right.
