You did keep it pinned through 1, right?  I remember that being a religious experience.  Really!  I saw GOD! and he told me I was a dumb ass.  By the end of the 8 hour endurance race, I was agreeing with him.
Yeah right.  At 135-140 mph, all I could do was hang on for dear life (naked SV1K).  I rolled off when I transitionned onto the very bumpy flats off the banking and just took one shift down.  Corner 1 is really fast - well over 100 mph!!  The stock sv1000k was very impressive - I expected a lot more suspension issues but it surprised the heck out of me.  I guess changing the seal and fork oil before must have helped.  The biggest surprise was the Michelin Power Roads 2CT - great traction and very little wear over 6 - 20 minute sessions.

Wow.. tough CCS MW schedule.  Topeka and a week later RA?  I don't see too many racers being able to afford time/money to do a back to back major trip.
I'm just recognizing that.  Ouch...

Back to back twin sprints will be very expensive. I will miss the 4th of July RA weekend. I looked forward to that weekend more than any. Not sure what to think about the ASRA Thunderbike with the rider weight thing.

Me too.

Since Road America is May 1-3, 2009.

I don't think the bike/rider thing will impact "average" weight riders much.  Do the math once.

If you look at any U.S. map of regions Topeka is not in the midwest.......
Why cant I ever get a break I live within 30 minutes of two road racing tracks and they are not on the schedule...........figures. :whine:

I'm just glad that FL and SE don't conflict at all for 2009, and MA very little...though I was surprised to see Road America moved from the 4th of July weekend, which is a bummer.

But one question: are the consecutive weeks' rounds at VIR for MA and SE actually one week apart, or is that a typo and are they supposed to be on the same weekend?  As the schedule reads currently, MA is at VIR on 9/19-20 and SE on 9/26-27, which would be a departure from the status quo.

Schedule I printed off shows MA, ASRA, SE on the same weekend. 19-20.

Odd, the one that I have, the 11/9 revision, has the SE as 9/26-27 and ME as 9/19-20 for VIR.

I was hoping for RRR to be on the SE schedule again.
