Thanks, to Jigs, all his peeps and the whole BHF crew.  The hospitality and the track made the drive worthwhile.  Not to mention the good eats.  I've never been to a track where the food was so good.  Ziti with italian sausage, baked chicken with stuffing, venison chili.  Not to mention the chimichanga grill.  Damn I swear you guys are trying to fatten me up.  BTW the 13's I got into were just a tick off a 12;  as in 1:13.070.  Next time (and there will be a next time) I'll see if I can give that BMW something to chase.  Really enjoyed the weekend and looking forward to coming back!   :cheers:

Thanks! We had a really great time -- nice to put some faces with screen names, too.  Bonus points to the brave folks who offered to loan their bikes when mine wouldn't start. Not many sports today where you'd find that kind of trust. Much appreciated!! 

I think I've found another favorite track  :thumb: Now, if I could just find a bike from this century...

Props to the MW crew! I had a blast...  :thumb: You guys took me in with open arms and I Thank You.  :cheers:
Thanks for the hospitality and all the help. You guys are Great! I will def. come back next year...
Johnny, your a trip.  :lmao: I would have never guessed that Jigs would have been you...  :biggrin:
Rob, Thanks for showing me the lines, I just need to work on my skills to keep up...
Tom has proven that there Are track managers that "Do get it" and made my stay more than pleasant.

Blackhawk is def. a technical track and one that i plan to learn. BTW, the bus stop had my ass all weekend.
I learned a lot from the Pridmore school Thursday and applying it to a new track was tough...
Things did seem to come around though and I swear that I must of had my elbow down to within 2 inches in the carousel,
WOW, what a rush...

Thanks guys, and gals...
