I've added two new custom profile fields into the software, whereby you can fly your country's flag under your details, as mine is now doing. And you can also list your bikes as well! All you need to do is: Go to My Controls on the top taskbar. Personal Profile info in the LH Menu. Edit Profile info. Choose your country from the dropdown menu at the top of the page. Enter your bikes in the relevant field at the bottom of the page. Click Amend My Profile. And that's it....you're flying your country's flag and showing your bikes!

Former 500cc World Champions Wayne Rainey, Eddie Lawson and Kevin Schwantz were joined by with three-time U.S. Superbike champion Doug Chandler at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca on Thursday in preparation for the Superstars of Super Karts race, one of the support events at the Red Bull U.S. Grand Prix in July. While Rainey and Lawson have raced Super Karts several times on the 2.238-mile, 11-turn road course in the hills outside Monterey, it was the first time Schwantz and Chandler had driven the high-performance karts anywhere. "I've been trying to get these guys (Schwantz and Chandler) into a Super Kart for a while," said Rainey, who lives in Monterey. "I think th…

Haga returns to Yamaha for 2005 10/1/2005 Yamaha has signed popular Japanese rider Noriyuki Haga to complete its line-up for the 2005 Superbike World Championship season.
