Good  idea....nothing worse than losing brakes.My lines were too tight and with fork extesion the banjo bolt finally loosened up,lost the front brakes at ACC at the end of the back straight...needless to say I crashed.

It must be nice having reasons for why you crash :wah:

jigs

Oh,I have reasons for my last 3 other crashes....let me see,loss or lack of focus,abrupt hands,rushing corner entrance,repeating a mistake......riding over my head,you know..the usual.My girlfriend says the reason why we crash is because we're on a racetrack going really,really fast,with a bucnch of other nut cases going really,really fast.Now I know why she's going back for her masters. :thumb:

You almost had another in turn 2 @ BHF.  I almost John Gu'd your ass (Sorry Gu)  I ran off in the grass and came back on.

jigs

Boy,I'd sure hate to get Gu'd.

Hey, Jigs.  Any pics you can share.  Not of your crash, but of your fame.  Well crash pics are cool too.  :D

Yes, I'll be on the same bike again this year.  Racing most of the GP region and some select CMRA events.  Going to be tough keeping up with some of the EX F40 ranks at HPT on my 600, but I'm going to giv'em hell.  Maybe we'll see each other on the grid.

I don't know,seems to me last year you finished pretty far up in the over-all satandings with a two wave start,and your lap times there were right up there.I may see you at R.A. this year again,which will be very tough in F-40 expert for sure.Frankly,a Championship would be really tough this year,so i may cherry pick a bit relating to weather.May 1-3 rd at R.A. could be 40 and rainy,which may reduce me to a spectator,or go to Putnam for a track day if the weather down there is nicer.If the weather is dry,I'll prolly do 7 races at Road America,but post reg,we'll see,either way,we'll keep an eye out for ya and good luck.
