Who's in race 7? Or did you mean race 6?

*EDIT*

Oh yeah I was only able to find 1 of the walkie talkies, I'll keep looking though.

DTM is Race 7 -- 500 Twins.  No one is Race 6.  That's 750 Prod and both datv and tigre have non-Production bikes.

I think Enzo and I have to do some work stuff in the early afternoon, so we'll be up for the morning only.  I'll have to check with him on that to be sure.   :'(  I think we're planning on riding though.   [thumbsup]

Should be good times.

Open GP is the superbike class for literbikes--basically, if you run a hopped up Gixxer 1000 and aren't racing Formula Pacific.  I guess some of the 750s could run in there, but they'd get stomped on.  Then again, it's not *that* different than Tigre running a hopped up 749R against all the 1098s in Open Twins.  Their usual classes are:

DTM:  250prod (primary), 500T
datv:  750sbk, Formula I
tigre:  Open Twins (primary), 750sbk, Formula I

Bump.   For those wondering, this is the thread we were talking about last night at the 'geist.

Races are Sunday.

I'm all giddy like a school girl.

What do you guys think about bringing a dog? I'm watching my parents dog while they are away and figure he'd like to out more then sit at the house all day.

Dogs are A-OK in the pits as long as they're on a leash.  Remember that DTM often has a harem of yippie dogs there, so make sure your parent's dog gets along with others.  And make sure he isn't freaked out by loud noises.

I hope everyone is doing well and keeping it upright.  I wish I could have made it, but I just had too many things to do. 

one of them included going to Bed Bath and Beyond  :'(

Results from the weekend
250P 3rd
500T 8th
250SB 2nd

The results from this weekend should be enough to secure me a 3rd overall for the year in 250P. Its not locked, but it should be close.

 It was good seeing the guys hit their goals.
DantheMan said in the pits he wanted to get past a couple of particular guys to secure a 3rd place overall. Then he went out and did it after some on-the-track battles. Nice  [thumbsup]

Tigre and Datv were pretty fun to watch as well. The wheelies were plentiful coming down the hill above the chicane (Turn 9a) [thumbsup]
Seemed like a good day on the track. Hopefully they'll elaborate with a race report soon and a video post!
