Title: Paging Super Dave...
Post by: cornercamping on May 30, 2004, 09:42:55 PM
Dave,

Myself and H-Man made donations to your org.  You missed the thread to find out what it was all about.  Just thought you might be wondering what in the world it was.  Long story.  Anyways, please don't send me any stickers or a shirt.  You may be receiving more donations from this issue.  Thanks.

Dan

Dan you should wear the shirt and put the stickers on some just to help promot Dave's effort.  I wore my shirt this weekend with pride.  Unfortunately, it was a little too chilliy to show it off all day.

Made it back...

Your call.  Like Sean said, it's good to have the stuff out for people seeing that you support the hope that we're trying to get for kids with cancer, and the kids that might get it in the future....

Trying to get up to speed.  Got home from work, but I've got to sleep, and work all day tomorrow.

Actually, you were to have sent $150 already and I sent $50 to Super Dave (via the Pay Pal link at his site).

Are you pledging the beer money to SD's cause too? ;)  That'd be way cool in my book.

And oh yeah.  DNF and DNS count as not achieving the 1:28 or better.

I am not a defender of Dan!  I am simply saying that people should stop hating and trying to hunt someone down like they are animals.  Dan may like to talk big, but he hasn't done any real harm to anyone that I know of.  There is nothing wrong with what he's doing.  At least you can call his BS most of the time to know that he's just talking being bored at work, not out there trying to hurt anyone in any way.  Believe me, I've seen worse from those who claimed to be the "great ones".   ::)

You'll see at the races I guess.  Sunny, why in the hell would I sell you a knock off  ???  Being the cheap ass that you are, I"m sure you'll inspect the helmet, and I can't believe you would even think I would do something like that  :o  Common Sunny... you know better than that.  If you want the helmet, you're gonna have to meet with me tomorrow sometime, cause Friday is my bachelor party  ;D

Just to make sure it's all fair, not that nobody trusts anyone or anything, SuperDave, could you please verify you recieved payment from both of us.  As far as beer money is concerned, there won't be any once I break the set time, but if for some reason, which I doubt, if you'd like, I will donate the beer money too if that's what you want. Let's say $400.00 should cover it. And, I agree, DNF  and DNS do not count.  Sorry, I didn't see this post earlier.

Calm down Dan, just messing with you.  I do know you better than that, and the fact I do check everything I buy very closely!   ;D   I wish I had the kind of $$$ that you are spending on bikes/racing.  I will probably have a real chance of making it to the pro rank with that kind of finance...........   ::) ;D

I'm not out to get you in trouble with your new wife over finances ;D  Just noting that our bet dosen't have any "proceeds."

However, you could choose to divert some of those beer bucks (which I surely hope wouldn't amount to anything more than the cost of a keg) to the MACC Fund.

Just be sure to save a six pack for me  ;D  You can bring it witcha to Gingerman on 8/1 ;)

Sunny:  The 1:28 time that Dan is claiming is quicker than some of the STT instructors.  That's why I can just taste those brewskis now :D

Hey H-man!  True, 1:28 is quicker than some STT instructors on 600s.  Dan definitely has the bike to go faster though (Aprilia Mille R Factory).  We'll have to see if he actually clock those time in the race.  I guess I'll have to come racing with you guys at Grattan on 6/12-6/13.

Dan's not rich, and Dan doesn't throw money out the window, so you guys put 2 + 2 together, and have my money ready to send to SuperDave after the races  ;)

*Note:  I am a cheap b@stard, so if you think I would bet on something I would lose on, then you got another thing coming.  Not as cheap as Sunny, but hey, well I don't know anyone cheaper than Sunny.   ;D

The only way I'm gonna lose this bet, is if I crash, and I don't crash that much, and if I do, chances are, I'm taking a ride in the meat wagon with lights flashing.  At that point, i could care less about the bet  ;)

How about we just bet on who's faster?  I'll ride a superstock R6 against you on a Mille R Factory!

I am not cheap, I just don't throw money away for no good reason.  There is nothing wrong with price shopping.  Oh Dan, my little 400 still costs more than any of the bikes you have owned!

Alright!  You are on!  We'll do the STT LED at Grattan on July 5th together (yes, after your honeymoon)!  Remember to save some $$$ from your honeymoon trip because you'll be giving me some after the race!!!!!!!!!!   ;D

Ok, true, your bike with BST carbon wheels on it could be more expensive, but then how long did you have the wheels on it before you sold it (for what they costed or some profits as you got good deal for them)!  I am talking about $$$ spent that's not recoverable (keeping the bike)!    ::)


Well, you did switched like at least 3 bikes alone last years (748, 749, mille) according to my count.  You never really own a bike for long.

If you're "not competitive" now, what are you going to teach yourself.

So, laps and laps aren't going to do it.

I teach a whole lot of stuff.  Change in attitude, body position, chassis dynamics...and I try to keep working with my children.

But, as always, riders have to make the decision that they want help...

You are right, laps and laps alone doesn't help that much, at least in Dan's case (fact from last year)........   ::) ;D

I am not a slow novice by any mean, but then I am not a very fast guy compared to the top experts.  I know there is a lot that I could/should learn.  However I am not going to pay $x,000 for the current available school thing........  Let me know what kind of classes you offered and for how much (maybe a webiste that I can go to; I'll search for it), and I'll see if oyou have something I am looking for and could fit my bill!   ;)

Sunny, if you want to get techincal, remember, the 749S had:

BST Carbon's w/magnesium hub
Ohlins R&T Forks
Ohlins Corsa Shock
Ohlins Damper
Termi full system
STM slipper
Magnesium Case Covers
Carbon Front Fender

and if you really must know, last years bikes:

748
749S
Mille R
R6
GSXR600

This year:

749R
GSXR600

Hey Sunny, that one guy passed on the helmet, so if you want it, I'll give it to you for the price you wanted, but only because it's you.  Your gonna have to come pick it up though or meet up with me today, cause I don't have time until I get back from my honeymoon.  I can possibly meet you half way, but I don't have time to come to Dearborn. I'm busy as hell. Want it? If not, Ryan (not shader) is gonna get it.  I"m giving you first dibs, so s@it or get off the pot  :D

No, I don't usually break them up, I sell the whole bike.  I just know where to get the parts at a good price, where I can sell a bike after riding it for a while, and then make money on it when it's sold.  I had my Mille for most of the season last year, so that even blows the 400 out of the water.  

Full Akrapovic race system
53 mm Throttle bodies
Carbon Aribox
OZ Magnesium's

B.S.   I don't want to hear you at all this year complaining how much LESS power your 400 has.  That is no excuse at all this year.  Don't even go there this year.  You've had all winter to sell that turd and get something else, and I don't wanna hear the condo excuse.  You could've bought my R6 for $4500.00 back in January.  That bike had 130 miles on it, and was perfect.  Brand new 04 R6 that I took to Jennings with Keith.  Only thing I did was have Edwards sign the tank. Didn't crash, and not a scratch on it.

Not complaining about the power because I am still enough rider to beat you on Mille or whatever you rode at both Grattan and Gingerman last year!!!!!!!   :o ;D

Yes, you told me about the 749S after you sold it, but the Mille before you sold it.  I don't want to spend $xxK on another bike!  You definitely didn't inform me of the 04 R6 at all.  Now, about the Gixxer, there is something we can work out!

Nope.  This one is brand new out of the crate.  Mine is race prepped.  I told you guys I get good deals on brand new bikes, and when they come across, I buy them, and resell them to street squids.  i've have 5 different GSXR's this year so far, and all are brand new.  1 I kept, 3 I've sold, and I have 1 sitting here almost sold.  I told ya I know people.  I get them legit from a dealer.  Kinda like a freind calls me when they are overstocked  ;D

Dave's certainly right about it being more cost effective to have a group to bring him to a track day over here.  When I went to his class at BHF it cost me $195 just in gas :o (F-150 towing an enclosed trailer).  Then you have toll, etc.

Let me know if this is something you'll want to do.  It need not be this season as far as I'm concerned.  Between the 2-day Code Class and Super D, my education, seminar and travel budget  ::) is practically tapped out.

LOL, that's why I bought my Diesel E350 bus... 8)

Neither Grattan nor Gingerman are my best tracks, but that's not the point.  The point comes down to execution, etc.

Monte and Bonnie put on nice stuff there with STT.  So, we have something kind of worked out.

I prefer to work with guys in one group as it makes life a whole lot easier for everyone.  Weather is always a gamble...

Now here's a word from the horse's mouth...

I don't know if I would have "bought" someone when I was starting out.  First, that kind of stuff wasn't available.  Second, as road racers, often, we're too "big" to thing that we just can't figure it out on our own.

Then I started working with someone...and my life changed...that was thirteen years ago.  

Anyway, just food for thought.

     Well since were way off topic already I'll add my 2 cents.

Quote"Nope, I'm not married... and probably never will be.


     That's probably going to be me, I pretty much have lost faith in marriages after seeing how disposable they have become. I hear the arguement that people know this couple or that couple that have been together for xx amount of years, but those are marriages from previous generations of marriages, not the current one. Statistically the absolute majority of all current day marriages fail, with sections of this country approaching a 75% failure rate! If you had a statistical 75% failure rate on an investment which would result in not only the loss of your investment but also 1/2 of everything you have worked your entire life for, would you still do it?

     I believe at this point the only way I personally would get married is with a pre-neptual agreement attached. I find it strange that people find these offensive when all it does is protects both individuals in the event of a divorce so as to allow each of them to return to a financial state similar to that as before entering the marriage. Unless someone was looking to profit off of the other persons personal situation I can't see why anyone would be offended by a pre-nep? (after all, isn't marriage about 2 people being in love with each other, and not about the money?) :-/

Mike:

I need help understanding your point.

Quotethat couple that have been together for xx amount of years, but those are marriages from previous generations of marriages, not the current one.

What qualifies as a previous generation marriage?

QuoteStatistically the absolute majority of all current day marriages fail, with sections of this country approaching a 75% failure rate! If you had a statistical 75% failure rate on an investment which would result in not only the loss of your investment but also 1/2 of everything you have worked your entire life for, would you still do it?

One thing that I think that is missing here is that a marriage is an investment in each other.  It cannot be one sided.  Plus, with both the husband and wife working nowdays, both lose when a divorce happens.  Sometimes that is point is lost when talking with one of the 'injured' parties.


Quotepre-neptual agreement

I have no problem with those and actually have actually encouraged a friend of ours to get one if he considered marriage.  Do Paul and I have one?  Nope, when your young and start out with nothing, there is nothing to divide.

I look at it this way.  We live one day at a time, regardless if we want to or not.  We live to make mistakes, and learn from them.  If you spend all day worrying about what happened yesterday, or what's going to happen tomorrow, you are just wasting time.  Do what you can, to make your life enjoyable and meaningful for yourself and your loved ones.  Screw everyone else. Your life is exactly what you make it.  There are people that live to live, and there are people that live simply to die.  Do whatever makes you happy, and don't worry about the rest.  The future has already been written, and plays out based on which doors you decide to open. Marriage is a wonderful thing, if you find someone to share your life with, and loves you as much as you love them.  As a 94 year old man told me in Las Vegas....

"Why tip toe thru life to arrive safely at the gates of death?"

This was while he was playing $30K hands of black jack.  :o  I thought he was crazy, but was he?

     There was a time in my life that I use to think somewhat like that, but then I saw a multitude of very different sides of things that changed my attitude over time. Though the following is taking my example to an extreme I believe it gets the point across. Based on what you just said the 9/11 tragedy was unavoidable and we couldn't have stopped it because "the future has already been written", yet we had intelligence (that wasn't acted upon) during Clintons era that an attack on the WTC would happen again and who would do it (if the 1st bombing of the WTC in the early 90's wasn't warning enough, I don't know what was?). Prior to 9/11 there was a government official from California that was spear-heading a push for the abolishment of the CIA stating that we no longer lived in an era which required that agency. I look at 'thinking ahead toward future possibilities' kind of like the role the CIA is supposed to have in protecting our best interests thru aquiring valuable information which ultimately could dramatically effect our lives. Divorce (along with it's often times dramatic effects on children, relatives and freinds) is used so often now days that it's sadly just considered commonplace when it could have possible been avoided all together had those involved not been 'living just for the moment' but instead looking ahead toward the future.

     I personally know the effects that divorce has on a family, having gone thru it when I was in 1st grade as my parents divorced. That happened at a very influential time in my life, as does with many other kids, and gave me a real distrust in commitment of any kind. This was further amplified when I began working full time and found out the hard way that almost everyone was doing as cornercamping said and was trying to "screw everyone else" which very effectivly makes my life as difficult as possible. This is where I disagree with the statement "The future has already been written, and plays out based on which doors you decide to open". No matter how hard I have applied myself at work there has always been someone there to take me down who was in a position of power to do so such as management afraid of me advancing or a wanna-be a** kisser.

     Do I believe that marriage statistics will improve? No, I don't, because people have become very much of the mindset of "screw everyone else" and they don't really care what effects there personal decisions have on others, kind of like smoking in a restaurant or driving drunk. I hate to sound like a pessimist here but when I look at the 'big picture' of many peoples marriages I all too often see 2 smaller pictures instead. 'Marriages of convenience' are very popular nowdays as a way to achieve this status or that status, like living in this neighborhood in this house and driving this vehicle with these kids that attend this school and do these things. But as is statistically proven that most often fails and leaves those involved in a mess. :-/

QuoteMike:

     By how long you said you have been married that puts you being married in the late 80's when the divorce rate was in the 20% range with spotted highs near about 1/3. Since that time the divorce rate has apx. tripled in numerous areas of the country. I hate to bring religion into this, but ultimately marriage is a religious union and true religious faith currently appears to be at a real low. Without religion in a religious union I would expect a very high falure rate. I don't want to put you on the spot here Dawn but if I remember correctly you have expressed religious belief here on this site in the past (which I commend you on) which as I just stated  would improve your chances of a successful marriage based on the values taught by most religions (if followed). :)

Dan, with all these time to play on internet, you still failed to reply to my email nor call me about the bikes after 2 days..........  Am I or anyone else supposed to believe you are not xx ...........   ::)  I won't try to put a word there yet..........   ;D  I'll let you decide what should go there................   ::)  I was giving you the benefit of the doubt because you are busy getting married, but you definitely had plenty of time to spare............   ;D

Hey Dan - thanks for posting your eBay userid the other day.  eBay really appreciated being able to find yet another one of your fraudulent eBay accounts; they promptly shut it down.

Time to switch to another one!

Is it true?  Can we really live in peace for a few weeks while Dan is off getting married, or becoming an astronaut or a deep sea diver or a diamond merchant or the postmaster general or whatever wild claims he is making today?  My BS meter has been pegged for so long, I'm not sure I'll be able to deal with not having to question the voracity of everything I read on here.  If there really is a God, Dan will not have a laptop with him and will not spend his honeymoon posting on here instead of consummating his marriage.  Scary to even think about.

What a thread.  We're into seven pages thanks to "he whose name we do not mention".
I was going to comment on Ebay and religion and marriage, but I'm going to pass.  I'll definitely pass. :-X

He'll probably send regular posts on consummating his marriage, including video clips shot with his latest high-tech watch.  ;D

Perhaps there is a meteor hurtling towards earth as we speak and we will all be spared from sharing.

Quote    By how long you said you have been married that puts you being married in the late 80's when the divorce rate was in the 20%

I get to reply since this has my name at the top...LOL!

I didn't think it was that low then.  

I don't think my getting married has to do with everyone's statistical numbers.  

Certainly, I remember when a friend of mine was talking about getting married in a few years, yet he didn't have a girl friend at the time.  I didn't have any plans on getting married.  I did though.  Meeting the right person completely changed my mind.  

I didn't get married based on a work contrack or agreement...it is a commitmemt.  Life isn't so easy sometimes, but, almost all of the time, it is better because I am married to my wife.

With people getting married for seemingly the wrong reasons and the examples that others set...I would expect there to be some divorces, I guess.

I was married in 1995.

My parents were born before WWII.  

I think when my parents were born probably plays a bit of a bigger role on how I look at things.  I know what my friends were able to get away with with their more "liberal" younger parents that became adults during the 60's...quite a difference.

 Hey SD, what's the name of your marriage couseling center?? "The Finish Line"   ;) Seriously, do you need any assistance setting up for Saturday. I could get there around 8 if you need some help. Lemme know.

LOL...my marriage counciling...LOL!

Saturday?  You mean the Super Dave Tire and Suspension Clinic at http://www.corsesuperbikes.com ?

I should be good.  I'll probably go on for hours and hours.  Tires are pretty easy...suspension is where it gets complicated.  

I think they have bikes there.  I'm not going to be taking anything apart on a fork or anything....I leave that up to the guys that know how to do it right...costs too much when you don't do it right yourself and your bike handles like dung...

10AM is the start, according to the Corse newsletter.  I should be there earlier.  Thanks for the offer for help!
