.. and then gave it back.elliot67 said:They penalized RC 25 points.
So your belief is that Wey was singled out just because he rode so good? As far as I know the samples are random at each round.mideastrider said:Wey was running way to good, I was afraid that would not go over to good.
I wish he had held onto 2nd place but he would've got banned 6weeks for that.(I Bet)
Did you know that Reed and Stewart were also penalized for the same thing, but were NOT given their points back after protest?elliot67 said:Really? Wow. I wasn't aware of that. I just did a search for illegal fuel and that article came up. Read the first 3 sentences and said that he was penalized 25 points.
Which means what? That yes, it was wrong (therefore a fine), but not wrong enough to piss-off the goat? :bang:elliot67 said:according to supercrossonline.com, they gave Carmichael his points back but fined Suzuki $20 000.
Just like NASCARrickyd said:AMA should start providing fuel. Take out all the guess work. :|
break a deal, face the wheel!kelseybrent said:I like the gas penalties. I think they should have a "BIG WHEEL OF PENALTIES" that they spin at the beginning of the following SX, to make it truly random.
Chili said:I've been out of town and haven't followed up on this yet but for them to take points is a farce of cosmic proportions. How they can justify this after the RC debacle last season is beyond comprehension.QUOTE]
Im with you, after that whole mess you would think they would come up with a solid system before issuing out more points penalties.
I guess its a good thing Im not racing the San Francisco round this weekend because if they tested me my 76 pump gas would fail and I would be DQ'd too. ;)
faultylogic said:If I remember correctly RC got his points back because the rule was written for the 2-stroke bikes and really didnt make any extra power for a four-stroke motor. The team was still fined because they broke the written rules, stupid or not.

Good thing the AMA has the rights all sewed up legally, or else everyone there would be out of a job when everyone discontinued their membership.
