Semi-trucks for the Honda, Yamaha and Suzuki are already in the Pikes Peak area, in preparation for this weekend’s AMA National.

Two Honda semi-trucks were already parked at Pikes Peak International Speedway on Tuesday morning, while the Yamaha and Yoshimura Suzuki semi-trucks are parked at a nearby hotel.

Factory team representatives have claimed that Thursday practice should be eliminated because they need Thursday to park and set-up their semi-trucks, and that having to arrive and set-up on Wednesday is a needless expense.

There is no Thursday practice at Pikes Peak this year.

The Honda, Yamaha and Suzuki trucks arrived at Pikes Peak direct from testing at Virginia International Raceway in Alton, Virginia.
