1. Quick intro topics
\ni.Euro 5 coming next year – \u201cAir-cooled engines are inevitably threatened each time there\u2019s a new bout of emissions regulations, and Euro 5 is no different\u201d
\nii. I reported last week that BRP snatched up Faster Faster Inc.assets. A&R put it best, \u201c For Alta Motors, this surely signals the end of the road for the startup company, as it seems unlikely that an investor would choose to restart the brand without having access to its key technology components and talented staff. RIP Alta.\u201d
\niii Romano Fenati back to race w\/Marinelli Snipers
\niv. WSSP300 <\/p>\n
2. ASK WIGGS deep dive from Jason Gulmire via Facebook
\n–\u201cGot a question for ask Wiggs. I\u2019ve been going to Flat Out Friday for the last 3 years. Over those three years the hooligan class has evolved. They went from stock bikes that you could tell someone just did a few mods for racing, to purpose built race bikes. At least that\u2019s how they look from the stands. Are there rules in place to help keep costs down for people? If not, is there talk about doing so? It\u2019s the nature of the beast when it comes to racing. Things always evolve into monsters when their [sic] not kept in check. And even when there are rules in place, the really ambitious find ways around them. Hopefully I\u2019ll here [sic] your answer on the show!\u201d –
\n\u201cWe should do a 4 way show with me and Singsime about racing costs. I came from the bracket racing scene and just started to heads up race recently. Bracket racing it doesnt matter how much you spend\u2026.. In theory. Lol. But often times it\u2019s not the person who spends the most is the one who wins.\u201d — Jason G<\/p>\n

\nb. SMRC follow up from last episode –
\nThe Safer Motorcycling Research Consortium (SMRC) was incorporated in 2019 as an industry-led non-profit organization composed of motorcycle manufacturers, suppliers, research organizations, and other relevant stakeholders with a focus on advancing on-road motorcyclist safety.
\nObjectives:
\nAs an OEM oriented organization, cooperate on pre-competitive research focusing on:
\nThe integration of motorcycling into the modern transportation ecosystem.
\nEnhancing and improving infrastructure and operations to advance traffic safety and protect the motorcycle rider and passenger.
\nImproving Human Factor elements that affect motorcyclist safety.
\nc. GLOSA New Audi tech (that might be shared with Ducati as part of the C-V2X system that they announced at CES) lets you \u2018ride the green wave\u2019 reducing red lights and hopefully the need to split\/share lanes and possible rear-endings (that\u2019s what she said)<\/p>\n
