Nice Job Ron Hix!

Not a bad first AMA weekend for Ron

- Outqualify in front of a former world champ - Check.
- Finish in front of said former world champ in race 2 - Check
- Not fall down in the shitty Wisconsin Novemb...I mean June weather - Check.

Great job Ron!  It was fun to watch!

Had a blast watching every second of the races.  Big congrats!!!!!

Thanks guys.  It was an "eye-opening" experience for sure, the pace was quite fast.  It is hard to describe what 10 seconds a lap faster looks like when it goes by you and you feel like you are already riding with your hair on fire!  LOL. 

We had a lot of fun and we learned a couple things as well.  Plus, we finished in the money so hopefully we can do another one this year.

Great work Ron!

Since you have a shaved head, I can only guess what that means...

Thanks for the love guys, all the encouragement and support is awesome.



Just finished adding the race writeup to the web site.  We had a good weekend and showed well at our first AMA event.  We finished 20th in the rain in American Superbike race 1 and 18th in the dry for race 2.

Full race writeup from AMA Road America can be found here:

I'll post some pics and vids as they become available.

Thanks for all the love and support!  :)

they are handing out AMA licenses like candy on halloween.
and i guess they did away with there 100 AMA points to get the super bike license.

not picking on Ron I would have tried to get my superbike license too if i had a 1000
ron you did good wish i was there too

I have a pretty good idea what that is like, actually. LOL

Congrats Ron!

Congrats Ron.

I would also like to know how you got a American Superbike license because I'm interested in competing at the VIR round.  Your help with this would be greatly appreciated.
