More from AMA VP Harry Butz
"This competition addresses an unmet need," said Butz. "Traditional motorcycle competitions are all about speed and excitement. In this competition, however, the slowest and most boring riders at last have a chance to shine."
Many aspects of the Top Gun competitition have already been featured at AMA sponsored rallies. For instance, the annual Slow Race at Daytona -- in which riders attempt to navigate a course of 100 yards at the slowest speed without falling over -- is still going on, with the "leading" rider averaging 0.0000034 miles per hour. Results are expected in October.
