annuum Biker Billy Jalapeno

Hi all,
 
I understand that Biker Billy Jalapeño is not a true jalapeño, it is a hybrid.  However, I like the flavor and heat that comes off this pepper.  Especially if I let them ripen to nice deep red.
 
That being said, has anyone kept any seeds and been successful in propegating it from saved seeds.  I can't tell anywhere if it is a F1 Hybrid, or if it is a stable hybrid like F5... and still called a hybrid by Burpee.  
 
Thoughts???
 
I am growing Craig's Grande Jalapeño this year, but not sure if it is a hybrid or a stable variety.
 
Thanks
Gabe

I have grown it three years in a row from collected seed from the previous year with no problem.

Thanks for the feedback.  I assume it is a stable hybrid then.  
Its not like the seed is hard to get ahold of.  Burpee always has it in stock.  its more of the novelty for me of growing from my own stock that I grew.  Just the novelty of it.

Yes the seeds I got from Cappy last season had 100% germ rate
Most pods are 3.5" + and F A T !
 
Just waiting on the red
