Traction Control and the AMA

Spies on the other hand will find himself in WSBK or GP very shortly.

And MotoGP still draws from AMA, only thing is AMA doesn't produce a lot of talent. Look at the AMA Superbike riders now:

Spies - he has a future outside of the AMA. I really think this will be his last year in AMA, regardless of whether or not he wins the championship.

And I got shown up. Spies just signed a two year deal with Suzuki to remain in AMA. Haven't heard details on money or why he's staying vs going to WSBK/GP, but he's definitely not going. Two year deal doesn't make much sense though, he's risking getting too old to join GP.
