Hi all,
    I am looking for the future MW potatohead.  If someone you know involved in CCS (MW region) racing does something dumb (on or off the track) and you would like to expose that person's follies PM me with the details.  I will file that info away for review at the end of the year and use it to pick the next taetahead.

Does choosing to work at a job that is more dangerous than roadracing get me in the running?

Still paying for going to work last November 28th.

Guy,

I spend too way much money and risk my life racing motorcycles, a sport in which I am only marginally competent.  Does this count as stupid?

Just wondering...

Serously, I missed seeing all of you at BHF last weekend.  I am still sorting through some issues on the Ducati and just couldn't justify making the trip for just the Thunderbike race on the F2.  However, I will be at the next BHF round with everything working and ready to race!

Guy - you seem in an awful rush to crown the next Mr or Mrs Potatohead.  I guess had I gone out on the wet track with those front rotors the way they were Sunday I could have been in the running.  But seriously, thank you very much for your help with that on Sunday.  I also had a lot of help from Mark and his brother Dan a day before.

No I am not really in a rush, but I do want to make an informed choice.  I have heard of a few unreported offences. 

One year a person who will remain nameless had a bike that stopped running.  The individual immediately began dismantling the engine.  I think he got the valve cover off and was preparing to remove the cylinder heads when the original owner got wind of what was going on, and asked did you check to see if you had gas in the tank?

No problem, I like helping others as long as there is time to do it right.

Oh, I wonder who that might've been?  LOL
Never interrupt your opponent while he's making a mistake.

OK, how stupid is this? I missed the first race at blackhawk in many, many years this year............ to stay home and do yard work. Now that should get me to the head of the list real quick!!

:err:
The frame was snapped, the #3 rod was dangling from a hole in the cases, and what was left had been consumed by fire.  I said, "Hey, we've got all night!"
