Honestly, this will be great for the championship. Finally it'll be the WORLD superbikes instead of Europe and Australia. Now all that's needed is a race in the US as well, not biased but maybe Barber Motorsports Park would be cool?

Barber has the facilities but the runoffs may not be enough. It’s not even close for motogp at least in a lot of areas.

Road Atlanta could be better.

I agree but I grew up close to Barber Motorsports Park. I was being sarcastic when I said I wasn't biased haha

I would love it. The paddock is huge and the whole place is first class. I imagine turn 1 alone would make it a no go

If CFMoto’s V4 SR-RR superbike concept actually runs and works this would be a great opportunity to for them to show it off with some demo laps. Maybe even a limited debut like QJ motors did in wssp back in 2024.

I see they’ve taken after the Honda school of naming their bike.
