Any interest in a pool with the pot going to the first person to make a confirmed sighting of you know who at RA?
By a confirmed sighting I mean either a time and date stamped photo or by dragging the afore mentioned party to the nearest pool participant to confirm the identity. No prizes for look-a-likes or imposters. Offer not valid in West Virginia or Mississippi. ;D
How about a dated photo of anyone's fist stamping his face.
Hey Garth,
Thanks for the reply on my email last week. Looks now like I won't be getting to RA till Thursday early evening.

NO! Elvis.
Can I get in on a contra bet? ;D
I've a suspicion no one will see ole he who shall not be named.
Matter of fact, it's a good thing I don't rely on getting stuff from him. I'd have never gotten my bike repaired in time for Gingerman last October and I'd be really bummed out now after nearly 6 weeks and no contact about a shift light.
Say Dan (just in case you're still scoping out this thread), do you need any assistance drilling your bike parts for safety wiring? Just e-mail me. 8)

I'll be easy to find. Look for a black Grand Cherokee with a huge black trailer. All Italian Twins in the pit. #35 I'll be the short bald headed guy wearing the "F*** NESBA" t-shirt. ;)

Nah, I'm all set. Sorry for the delay H. Just got back into town, thus I haven't been on the board too much. It's been a rough couple months, but now it's track time so :D

Back to "normalcy" again.... so... if I show up, will someone show me around RA. Never been there, so I don't know if just practice will get me where I need to be at for lap times to race, not that I would be anything more than a back marker anyways, but if I get lapped in a sprint race by 10th place.... :(
Will someone do a couple laps with me that knows the place?

Road America is easy. You won't need much time at all. Go really really fast, brake hard, turn, go really really fast again. Just think of your average street squid ripping down a city street - that's RA.
QuoteÊGo really really fast, brake hard, turn, go really really fast again.
That's the part I have problems with ;D :P
The problem with RA is the length of a lap. You do not get to see a particular corner very often (about half as many laps in practice or a race). The track itself is fairly easy to learn, to be able to go really fast takes some time.
I would help you Dan, but the only combined practice is usually lightweight. ISTR you will not be on a lightweight bike. Too bad, I will be breaking in my 125 Friday morning, you would actually have a chance of keeping up.

You should do the NESBA day if you have not been there before. You get almost no track time at RA. Practice session's are 3 laps so as Brian said you will get to see turn 5 six times and it's time to race. I would recomment GT race's or the Team Challenge as race/practice time if you hate NESBA.

Better yet - stickers that say "I'm a Danostic - there is no Dan!'

I don't hate NESBA. Never done a day with them. Can't comment until I do. I'm just trying to piss off Garth. ;D
You guys are silly :D OOoohhhh we're gonna have some fun. ;D ;D ;D
OMG, you guys are killing me! ;D I just read the whole thread and now I have a cramp in my side from laughing! :P
Also I would be careful if your towing a really large trailer with a Jeep Grand Cherokee if your new to this combination, those things have no wheel base and the trailer will probably be in more control of you than you will be of it. Hey wait a minute, did I just give safety advice to the immortal one? ;) :P

Am I a joke to you? Do you find me amusing? What's so funny about me? Do you think that my purpose here is to entertain you? >:( >:(
Glad I could help ;D
Anyways, I've towed many of times with a Jeep. I had an older Jeep I bought just to tow to the track 2 seasons ago. It was pretty good until I blew the motor on the way home from Gingerman. That was a V6 though. Now I got a Hemi :D
Yeah, funny. Funny like a clown.
Nothing wrong with the Jeep motors. It's the wheelbase that'll kill ya. Literally. The wife and I got out the Jeep after a near death experience while trailering and said "Never again!" Lemme guess-black Cherokee with a gold package, right? You're bringing those tires right?
QuoteAre you guys talking about me ;D

OK, RWB, I'll meet you at Blackhawk with those 218s from Danny Boy. Whattayasay Dan?
Havn't heard or seen anything from Elvis in several days.
Must be busy packing for RA.
Sure hope his wife doesn't run over a doghouse on the freeway again - or anything else that might interfer with his trip. ;)
I have it under good authority Elvis WILL BE at RA this weekend! Mainly on the Motard track though, he's gettin' pretty old.
The suspense is almost unbearable. Be sure to let us know whether he was/is there.
Now granted.....
Day one results did not include the Super Twins results, but day two doesn't have mention of him at all. ::)
Perhaps he crashed out? ;D
QuoteNow granted.....

More than likely just didnt show. ;D
Maybe he was buried in the 8' of lake effect snow they got where he's at in Michigan? Maybe he was there at RA and so stealth that no one figured out who he was? Maybe he had turtle syndrome from the cold? ;) ;D
Just got home from RA and I didn't see Dan. Come to find out he wasn't even registered to race at RA.
I am adopting a new policy toward him. My only response to anything he posts will be,
"Show up or SHUT up!"
Elvis did make an appearance though! Not one Elvis, but 2 Elvi! On Motorcycles too! ;D
The cold was tolerable and it was good to see a lot of familiar faces!
Yup.... It's confirmed, Cornercamping Dan didn't show up.... Again! As it was said.... "SHOW UP OR SHUT UP!" Personally I think its a 14 year old kid on his dads computer talking crap!
By the way... I really had fun this weekend despite the weather! Mark!
So, again no Dan. I'm doubting the existance of Dan. There was a big Black truck pulling a big black trailer, in fact there was more than one rig like that. (go figure!). None were a spanky new hemi with a canopy of "Italian" bikes next to it, unless you count the guy riding the pits on a Vino. (Ok, it's an italian name). Dan, come on! Make it out to Blackhawk! Only 2 weeks to get that golden ride of yours all prepped. Someone will even loan you the tools to safety wire. Don't say who you are though, use an alias, because we wouldn't want to mess up your no show record. ::) :P
Not only did I see one Elvis, I saw two Elvis's--or is that Elvi? I don't know.
Dan was busy getting his BMW M6 fitted with a trailer hitch and 4WD. Really.

Quote"Show up or SHUT up!"
"Shut up Dan!" is all he should get. Dan doesn't exsist. Why do we keep wasting key strokes talking about about him? ??? He dosn't race, doesn't have alot of money, doesn't have a great job and the only thing he's good at is being a BS artisit in chat rooms. I would bet that he reads alot of magazines to give himself some insight into bikes. Any bike that he's ever been on (especially on a track) probably isn't his. A brothers or uncles bike would be my guess. I'd say freind but come on! Harding than finding Dan would be finding someone that actually claims to be his friend! :D The Dan topic is fun for a while but enough is enough of this liar! >:( Banned means banned. ;)
QuoteThere was a big Black truck pulling a big black trailer...
I bet that was my truck & trailer you saw, I was just finishing talking with Xian when you guys pulled up and parked across from where I was (just shy of the building where they sell the shirts). Xian went over to talk to you and I left to go get lunch.
Ya know, I have a big black truck, and a big black trailer, and I did talk with someone about some wheels & tires......OMG, I THINK I'M DAN!!!!!!!! :o All this time I thought Fight Club was just a movie, but now I realize that the alternate personality may be feasible, 1 minute I'm Mike, the next I must be Dan! Someone please tell me it isn't true! :o

It's okay to be frustrated over Dan, but learn to accept it and roll with the punches. Dan might be a perfectly nice guy, but we don't know that, because he's just an internet phantom to us. Who knows who Dan really is, what his life is like, and whether he's ever going to show up? Makes for good stress relief.
BTW, no one gets banned here unless Shawn can do it, and he hasn't been around in a while. Maybe Shawn is Dan? :o ;)

Dan is a putz! He will NEVER show. Why...? Because he is no racer. No brains, no guts, no nerve, no skill.
Come on Dan... come out and play with us real racers and then maybe, just maybe, all these people will take you a little more seriously and give you a little slack. But untill then, NO WAY....! "SHOW UP OR SHUT UP!"
