Well it's only 2 weeks till the CCS/FUSA event at Road America so I figured it was time for the roll call, what classes everyones running (Sat/Sun or both), and what days they will be there?
I am planning on driving up to RA early Friday morning and staying thru Sunday early evening. I am planning on just practicing on Friday then watching the races that afternoon. I am pre-entered in the HWSS, HWSB, ULSS, & ULGP classes for both days and should be riding my '02 GSXR 750.
I'm putting together a fund to purchase some good weather for that event, so if you would like good weather also just send me as much money as you can afford and I will see what I can do! ;D ;)
Good luck to everyone and I hope it's a safe event! :)
Aye!
Will be there sometime, don't know when... ;D
Ohh I think I might be there, really not sure :P
Who am I kidding...
I will be there Friday racing GTU, GTO and the Team Challange!
Then I am go to take to celibrating and spectating for the remainder of the weekend!
(still up in the air about running Unlimited GP, want points but thing the TC will make me jello)

...
Be glad to lend a hand if you need, just pit close to the Tourdot Racing pits. I do plan on having a Hangerover on Sat, the level of hanger over will depend on how well we do in the TC
As far as the kill switch goes... I make no promises ;) These things happen... to no fault of your own! :o
Going up Friday for practice,camping at the marsh,pre registered for ULGP Sat,ULSS on Sun.I was looking forward to racing against you in ULGP Xian(the whole rival thing)whats up ???
QuoteGoing up Friday for practice,camping at the marsh,pre registered for ULGP Sat,ULSS on Sun.I was looking forward to racing against you in ULGP Xian(the whole rival thing)whats up ???
Like I said, I am up in the air about ULGP...
Main reason is, I don't know if the TC is going to kick my butt or not (planning 3 hours of racing on Friday).
Other reasons are, RA is not a Skills track, its a Dragstrip with a few turns... My 5 y/o 600 will be really out classed out there, even in the MW classes.
If I can make my personal goal of a 2:22 on the new layout.. you better believe I will be racing Sat and Sun ULGP ;D
If nothing else... I am sure to see you in the paddock.
QuoteMy 5 y/o 600 will be really out classed out there.
Wanna try my 11 yr old 600? ;D
I'll be there. LWGP, LWF40 and Thunderbike. I will not be running LWSS ever again. ;D
I'll be there at the latest Friday Night
Racing LWSS, LWGP and LWSB,
Hey KC_124, Why no LWSS ever again? ???
QuoteOhh I think I might be there, really not sure :P

Ok Xian, you have absolutely NO excuse not to be there, aren't you like one of the closest persons living to RA? Man, you could push your bike to the track! ;D LOL

My air cleaner has a big ole hole in the top of it. ;D :'(
And don't forget...
I will have "Super Dave's Race Against Childhood Cancer" T-shirts at Road America.
As part of my racing program for 2004, and beyond, I am raising funds for pediatric cancer research. The funds that I raise go to Midwest Athletes Against Childhood Cancer.
And it seems as there has been a question about this...no, they are not supporting my program, but they are the recipient of the funds that I am trying to generate.
Your support is appreciated! 8)
Team Stumpy will be at RA in full force. We will be making some sticker deliveries so if you need anything, now is the time to let Stumpy know!
Fair warning--there's going to be LOTS of Stumpy fans from da U.P. down der. Enough to justify a pasty dinner!
I'm in on the weather fund. I'll need to sell some stock first, though ;D.
Heather
I'll be there thurs. night @ siebkins

Quote Thursday practice huh Brian, well you need it. :P
Indeed Indeed. Actually I was planning on not doing it but I guess Wuytak convinced Carr to sign up for the trackday and since we're all heading up together... figured I should sign up too. Besides, I'm fat and rusty.. I need the thursday practice. You going to be ready?
Quote I'll see ya in the LWGP ;) Rev? Me also!
MJ.. look me up so I can give you the wheel/dolly thingie for the trailer.

Mike, you need to lay off on the debating or your going to be blind by the time RA rolls around! ;D ;) ROTFLMAO!
Not sure if I'll make it to R.A. Waiting for the brown truck to drop off my friggin' track fairings >:( Anyways, if I should happen to be able to go, anyone have gearing recommendations for an 04' GSXR600 ??? Never been there on a I-4 :P

Stock gearing works well at RA, and is definately a good starting point. Some people go up or down 1 or 2 teeth in the back at RA, depending on bike and riding style.
I will be there sometime Thursday. Planning on FUSA Thunderbike
CCS LWF40, Supertwins, Thunderbike
And quite expensive if I might add!! OUCH!!!
I'll be there. It will be my inaugural expert weekend. I think I have teradactiles in my gut. I went and signed up for GTU/GTO and FUSA Sportbike/Superbike. I like RA so, my goal is to first qualify, then shoot for a top 10 finish or better to get my money back and score some AMA Expert License qualifying points. Since this track is on the AMA schedule, I suspect a lot of those boys to come out and play. Let's do it. Hey I'm a racer, so I'm going to race. Look at the quote under my avitar.
In any case, I am excited and look forward to the challenge. Wish me luck.
Thanks for everyone that has given me advice and chose to sponsor my teammates and I. In particular, I would like to thank:

MC Racing will be there with bells on!
Safety wiring's not done, 520 conversion converted to a chain pile, Michelins aren't in yet, and neither are the fairing brackets.(Had to order two?) Goodridge steel braker lines are a mystery. How much time we got to procrastinate?
QuoteHow much time we got to procrastinate?
Well, as long as you get tech done, you can procrastinate right up to your first race...

Pre registration is thursday night at siebkins. They will give you a wrist band to get into the track thursday night to set up. Make sure you get to siebkins before 8 or 9 pm. Not sure about the time.
I think you can register @ sbkins between 6 and 9pm -don't hold me to that.
Thanks fellas. 8)
Wont be there for Road A . Just got a job and finally making money so Road A is a no go but ill be money'd up for the rest of the year!! yahoo something finally went right only took 6!/2 months
Planning to be there Thursday evening to park the trailer but have to be at real job Friday. Will return Friday evening for the weekend.

Can I get a piece of this action? Formula Fatass! I'm soooooooo qualified!
Left turn out the main gate of the track. Drive 3 or 4 minutes to get to Elkart Lake. The road curves right and comes to a 4-way stop. Turn left. Drive through town. (a few short blocks.) when the street turns a 45 degree uphill right past an old barnlike building on your right, turn left instead. Seibkins is a block down on the left, a big old wooden white building. Parking lot across the street to your right. Enter bar. Register. Drink. Tell lies.
Guess I'll be there sometime tomorrow evening. Thanks for the directions. I can handle the drinking and lies part. 8)

This is my story and I'm sticking to it.
I'll be there from Thursday afternoon through Sunday. Not bringing the bike, trailer, van or John. Will be cornerworking Fri., Sat. and Sunday.
See you at the track and/or Siebkins!
I'll be there tonight, freezing in the back of my pickup truck until dawn so I can get in for the NESBA day. If anyone would care to bring along an extra hottie to keep me warm tonight, (Team Stumpy? You have plenty to spare!) I would be most appreciative! ;D

Eeeesh, the reinforcements won't be arriving until Friday/Saturday. I can bring my wiener dog--he loves to cuddle!
We'll be crashing at the gate tonight, too--probably pull in between 8:00 and 9:00 tonight. I'd offer you some floorspace, but I think we're already full!
Are we there yet? No.
