Title: Attention CCS: VIR Schedule
Post by: bfkidd on August 26, 2004, 10:29:56 AM
The following two races are back to back and will have virtually all of the same riders involved:

11. $1000.00 Speedscreen Unlimited GP (Ex)
12. Heavyweight SuperBike (Ex & Am)

Can please look at putting something in between? Maybe LWSB?

Thanks.

There's a difference between one guy having two bikes and having back to backs and a whole field running in both classes on the same bikes back to back.

Essentially Unlimited GP is Heavyweight GP....

So it's like running MWGP and MWSB back to back. It would never happen.

The schedule the way it is now has never happened before either.

BFKidd, As I understand it, you have two races back to back and will be running two differnet bikes for the classes.  If that is so, you are concerned about your rider getting to the pit, getting the other bike and getting out in time.  Problem solved- Let your race director know that you will be running two different bikes and may need an extra 20 seconds (others may be doing the same thing). Now, have the other bike running and ready to go right at the track entrance when the rider comes in, give them a splash of water, hop on and go.  Hopefully the conscientious race director will see you are doing everything in your power to keep a hectic schedule running on pace and maybe he will do his best to see that third call to race is delayed about 20 seconds.  These races are run back to back because many riders ride the same machine and tires (slicks vs. DOT) and can be ready to go. With so many classes (and I think maybe too many) CCS has to scrape up time where ever they can.  You can help and if you do may be helped by the staff.  I know it may be hot (quit your whining and race in Phoenix some time ;D) and the rider may need a break, but every other rider has the same conditions to race in and if they are not doing back to back- it may be because they can't or don't want too.  Hope this helps out.  We have this situation all the tim ehere in SW and Pacific regions and have had relativlely few troubles-just make sure you explain your intentions to the race director (early in the day)- not another member of staff as they usually cannot make that decision.

I REALLY liked the part about the whining and "try racing in Phoenix sometime!"  You're right! :D

No one (other than a So-Cal) racer or maybe a FLA guy can understand the +100 F racing in Phoenix!

You need not let VIR get the best of you...You are better than that... just block it out and concentrate on your marks and throw out the grapling hook and try to stick with someone that is just slightly faster than you ...Remember, If they can do it SO CAN YOU... ;D  You don't have to stay on their azz, just keep them within reach...Just be confident in your equipment... ;)That is not a track that you need to have fear about...It is Waaaaaaay toooo Much fun for that... ;D ;D ;D

Barber is way more technical and you did fine there... ;D
