Good luck working your way to 1:30 land ;)

Just remember to tell Super Dave that you'll take an XXXL shirt when you make another donation  ;D

I'm at Grattan right now.  Hopefully the track doesn't have a river running thru turn 1 >:(  Rained all day today.  Just got here a little while ago, and we're staying at the wonderful Candlewood Inn 8)

 ;D









Your gonna lose some money.. :D

He was in Intermediate and riding a mostly black Ducati with a number plate of 669!  He wasn't out there much though as I only saw him a few times.

Sorry I have no idea who you are, and didn't make any effort of getting to know anyone who I didn't know already since I knew a lot of WERA racers were there and they all dislike me and treat me like black plaque!    ;D   Feel free to come introduce yourself to me next time if you are not afraid that WERA guys will dis-own you due to it.   ;)

Quotethanks. ÊSaw you out there Sunny.

I take it you were in Advanced  ???  I was in intermediate, so I know I didn't see you on the track. I was on a carbon Ducati.

All these months >:(  All that money :o  And the suit still doesn't fit :o

Are you going to have to pay extra for someone local (well... in the US anyway) to do add'l alterations?  Or does it do back to Europe with a picture of you wearing it for them to try again?

Oh yeah, you'll know it's me at Grattan 'cause my trailer now reads "Black Ops Racing" and I'll be the yellow plated #42.

H... this is your first time back in a while right?  Watcha ridin?  Settle on something yet?  If I remember correctly, you were looking at alternatives.  ???

Well you're partly correct.  July 19th will be my first time back on the track since May.  But I haven't been in search of a bike.  You must be thinkin' 'bout some otha brotha ;D

Been looking for a spare front wheel but not a bike.

I have been and will be on a '94 F2 8)

No woof tickets from me as yet.  We'll see what the future holds.  Have you decided about the CCS Gingerman races on 8/1 & 10/10?

I'll respond to whayever your reply is tomorrow.  I gotta travel to WV tomorrow.

I"ll be at the Gingerman rounds, and racing all events in my region with CCS from this point forward.  I did my track day just to dust off my helmet, so I'm ready to ride.  Have a safe trip.

Great body positioning except he's got no speed................    ::) ;D


H, make sure you don't use Dan's line when you come up behind him to avoid nailing him from behind due to speed difference!   ;D
