EMRA Round 3 and 4

There has been no sleep at the Ducatidaddi Racing team headquarters somewhere west of Calgary buried deep in the back of the Famous Skunkworks Fabrication Shop (Skunkworks because the main rider is lactose intolerant and someone keeps bringing DQ Blizzards to the late night tuning sessions).

The insomnia is caused by the 3 year old puzzle of how to solve the 51Racing problem. We at Ducatidaddi Racing pride ourselves in our "above board" behavior and sportsmanlike conduct........but we did it. I hate to admit it but we did something immoral, unethical and in some countries ILLEGAL!!!

We hired a spy. There it is, out in the open for the world to see. It was at untold expense and everyone was very concerned about being caught. But in this high stakes world of "old men racing", it was worth the risk. And what a plethora of information, secret tricks, intel we gathered.

The first thing is that reports came back of a new pit tent. And not just any tent, but the fastest one money could buy. While embarassed to repeat what he saw through the window, our spy said that Duke Nukem was so excited about the new tent, he spread it on the shop floor, crawled under neath it and erected it in 2 seconds without even using his hands! Now that is ONE EXCITING tent. Then Duke was heard chanting, 'faster, faster, faster". That has take at least 2 seconds off his already blazingly low lap times.

Ducatidaddi Racing could not believe the extent 51Racing will go to just to get an upperhand.

Not to be outdone, our team manager spent the night on the phone with all the Ducati racers in Southern Alberta. The racers all agreed that MEDIAEXTREME has the fastest tent in Calgary. 2 hours of extensive negotiations, 2 draft picks and future considerations; a deal was struck. DucatiDaddi Racing will be running under a borrowed tent this weekend just to try to cut in half the advantage 51Racing got by aquiring a faster pit tent.

Stay tuned for updates over the 3 day weekend as DucatiDaddi Racing goes head to head with 51Racing for bragging rights as the 2 gentlemen of the sport square off. May the fastest tent win.
