mid-month it was 35 degrees @ 6am.  if it's really 51 on friday at that time.. bring your bathing suit.

Like this is the racing, no?

If anybody reads this early in the morning, I need some help prepping my KTM for the track (fuses, lights taped). Anybody bringing anything like that and showing up early enough for some pre ride prep?

I am also bringing the Honda so maybe durring the first break or something like that. Not sure if you can even have two bikes or prep between sessions.

Also a good idea to have a bathing suit with 30% chance of rain ;)


It's the or will have las night part that worries me... do they usually have tape out there to use?

We're There!




We missed you guys, or possibly had seen you. We did the 30th only. Two monsters, mine had the hockey mask grill. Good times!  [thumbsup] have fun guys (and gal).

fun day, as always.  some morning showers meant we had to sit out the first session but then the weather was great overall.  overcast but a nice, slightly cool temp and zero wind.

bill was sexy, josiah was 'tardy, derby was spinning em up, joe was lanky, ryan was a colorful blur, jake did REALLY well (wow!), i found the limit on my beloved dunlops and learned some stuff about my riding that i'm anxious to get back out there and put to use.

we ran into april in the AM but barely saw her again..  for track daz there were surprisingly few get-offs.. and coach's was.. just right  ;)
