Spies had talent for sure, a shame his body couldn't hold up.
I don't expect much talent to come out of the US for a while. Now that the AMA Superbike is dwindled down to sh*t, only 5 rounds this year. Daytona 200 isn't even on television.
I feel for Cameron Beaubier, some people had him maybe going straight to MotoGP. I hope the AMA failure doesn't hurt his progression in the sport. He is on a Yamaha superbike this year with Josh Hayes.
