So we just found out today that my bro-in-law (and our current basement dweller) Scott Jensen got word that he has a Wild Card for the WSBK event at Miller Motorsports Park. At this stage he is the ONLY American that has been offered a wildcard for the event 8)

Doing the WSBK event along with the AMA SBK/Superstock races comes with it's own list of logistical headaches, like since his AMA SBK is also his WSBK the wheels and tires from one event cant go anywhere near the the other area. It's to do with the control tire setup, he cant use his US tires for the WSBK or the WSBK tires for the AMA event.

The schedule for him is nuts as well, he is on track for almost 7 hours on Saturday and will have the AMA SBK #1 race, back to back with the AMA Superstock race, back to back with WSBK Superpole if he makes top 16 cutoff. On Sunday he has WSBK #1, then AMA #2, then WSBK #2, then we get drunk

The other huge factor in doing the WSBK weekend is the cost, so if you feel so inclined and want to help out the American Wildcard you can go to Scott's website ( http://moto-garageracing.com/pages/donate.html ) and click the donate button
