Hell's teeth, you guy's rock. :thumb:
You da man Simon, :thumb: Carousel Pickup Extraordinaire.
The whole crew rocked this weekend. :cheers:
I'll do my rather brief synopsis :lmao: another time as it is getting late.
Hell's teeth???
Saturday, one of the racers told me MARRC has the best crew he's seen.
We're not perfect, but we're pretty damn good.
Marrc is the best around for sure.
I want to say great JOB to everyone for a great weekend, you guys rock. Made my job easy. :thumb: :thumb:
I'm not sure if I am the equipment man or waterboy this weekend. :rollseyes:
I am very upset, they told me that elephants can't ride on sidebikes, because it was not enough time. Said that they would have to tow the bike around if I got one. :wah: :preachon:
First impression of this weekend is... as usual... GREAT WEEKEND! It was an extremely long, hot and arduous weekend, but in all things flowed really well. Mad props to the MARRC crew and the CCS crew as well as the racers. Despite several trying incidents and dealing with the heat, etc., it seemed everyone worked together to make things flow unbelievably smoothly!
~ Another thank you needs to go out to the cafe crew this weekend, once again, a wonderful display of nourishment through out the weekend.
~ Also wanted to note that I felt that the racers out there this weekend REALLY respected us and what we were doing. All riders were very respectful of flag conditions, allowing our crew to take action quicker and attend to the incidents.
Over all despite being a very taxing weekend - WHAT A BLAST!!!

Thanks guys for being out there for my friends with the sidecars. Simon, thanks for helping Judy out! Without you guys no one races, so I want to make sure everyone knows that you are appreciated (and it seems like you have fun doing it, by the posts here)
All y'all are whacked. :ahhh: :ahhh: :ahhh:
Welcome Mikey!! The back and forth "thank you, no thank YOU - no thank YOU" could go on for days! We enjoyed having you guys out there (despite this http://www.ccsforum.com/index.php/topic,18103.msg153919.html#msg153919) :ahhh: :ahhh: And the side car rides at lunch were the envy of the ENTIRE pit area!!!

Have you seen the "company you keep" in this thread :biggrin: :lmao:
I started to wonder if maybe we corrupted him. Then I stopped and remembered who I was thinking about. :lmao:
Guzz, post up some pics of us on the sidecars! I know my smile was about as wide as the visor...probably looks like nothing but teeth under the helmet! :biggrin:
I can't wait to see the ones from T7 that Terry took. I was leaning over the right side big time coming through 6. I wasn't brave enough to lean as far to the left as the regular "monkeys".
Hey Mike, maybe you can "entice" Racer #911 to update us on his condition??? BTW - Tyler asked me what bike went down in my turn. I told him 911 - and he promptly responded " SO you had to 911!" he laughed hysterically at himself (although that could have something to do with the amount of SUGAR he gets while he's at the track) :lmao:
I PM'ed Bobby and he said after visiting the DR he indeed had broken his ankle and still pressed on in 3 more races after his get off in T5. DR also said his season was over but Bobby seemed to think differently. He's hoping for a removeable cast.

:lmao: :lmao: Maybe he needs to see the Moto GP doctor... he can fix em up and throw em back better than any!!!!
I was SHOCKED to hear him being called as "last bike" on a siting lap only moments after his wreck!

Riding on a broke ankle I'm wondering if maybe we should suggest he see a different kind of doctor altogether. :ahhh: :lmao:

He's a racer....whatdaya expect, they're nuts.
thanks, guys. maybe i should have read this thread before starting the other one.
it was kinda funny, actually. i was sitting there with a cold pack on my ankle and heard first call for race 9. the conversation went something like:
friend: are you going out?
me: is the bike back together?
friend: it will be in 1 minute.
me: give me my leathers!
then one minute later, my friends are putting me on the bike and i barely make it out in time for the warm-up lap. let's just say that the feeling in my ankle was slightly unpleasant to say the least, especially muscling the bike around 7, 8 and 9. i also had to use my whole leg to shift, because i couldn't flex my ankle. it was interesting.
btw, whenever somebody asks me why my number is 911, i tell them it's so that the cornerworkers know what # to call when i crash.
I wanted to thank all of the corner workers for helping out, Thanks for picking up the pieces after my Saturday crash, turn 4 warm up You have no idea how much of a burden you take of a riders mind when you take over and look after all of the post crash details, and gear...Bob
Bobby you got balls bro.
Bob, thanks for coming out and racing giving us something to do and great to see you posting after a get off. Did you walk away with any injuries at all? Was this the 4 bike pile up? Looked like a motorcycle junkyard when I got there with the crash truck with pieces everywhere if it was.
Mike I ended up with a broken arm, I am waiting to scheduled for surgury to have a rod put in the bone.
Yes I was part of the 4 bike pile up. Mark the rider that was air lifted suffered a broken leg and a broken ankle, please keep him in your prayers for recovery,
Thanks ...Bob
Sorry to hear about your broken arm Bob and hope it heals up quick.
Thoughts and well wishes go out to Mark. Heal up quick bro.
Does he come to this forum at all? Would be great to get updates on how he's doing.
Bob and Bobby... great to see you guys posting! Well wishes to all for quick and speedy recoveries!! :cheers:

hey mike you get the PM i sent you?? and useing simon as the frame no no terry you should just get a sled and have him chris and mike pull you around the track that would be much much funner to watch and easier to pick up when one of the 3 monkeys falls down.
