I interviewed Jake Z at Laguna Seca last month, read here:

Hey... very nice

 

Nice intarview. Hopefully there'll be more in the future

 

Good job! Jake's seems like a good guy. A racer like Hodgson you could sit around and drink with.

 

very nice

 

Nice. Jake's a cool guy.

 

I'm surprised what he said about WSBK, because at last year's Laguna Jake was pushing to get a ride in the GP, like the AMA guys used to do when WSBK came through. It seems like he wants to broaden his horizons a lot.

But he's right there is a lot of talent here in the states, what the AMA is missing though is competitive machines. Suzuki really played their cards right. I mean sure Kawi has got a factory bike again, but they are two years behind in development, Yamaha will be starting from stracth next year, and Duc might be pulling out

It would be nice to see a little more competition. The Honda guys are the only ones getting it done to compete with Suzuki.

 

Asians ftw.

Cool interview.
