thanks. i wasnt planning on winning at either track my first time out since i just ran vir for my first time ever, on a new bike, and as a season opener, and i was racing with a couple guys who were running 38's 39's according to them. so i was wondering what some other people ran down there for their first time to see if i was a quicker learner than most. i only ran two races down there though. i expect to drop a couple easy seconds off that my next time down. and as far as summit, well im racing there may 2/3 and just wanted a ball park number to shoot for. thanks again.

Didn't you know that everyone on here wins every race they enter? I mean, you don't think a bunch of backmarkers would sit at their computer all day long do you?

Hey did you get a time for yourself at VIR? I know the 3 guys that finished before and after you in GTU, and they couldn't have been doing 38's I don't think, maybe consistent 40's... unless they are a lot faster this year. But then you never know. I end up doing about 38's and lead an entire race...
AM though.

I timed EX's last year at summit and MW races were won with 17-18's. mid pack was around 20. AM's are closer there. I think 19's will win next weekend. I want to do all 19's... we will see... Hope to see ya there

one guy i spoke with said his best ever there was a 36, and he qualified for an ama race. but  said 39's for sure. the other guy i talked to said he was being timed with a stop watch by his girl and he was on the borderline of 38's/39's. who knows. im not too worried about it since it was my first time there, and on a new bike. but i did feel good out there considering that. ill be racing sat. and sun at summit, so look for my bike 629 and say whats up. here is a link to a few pictures down at vir so you know what the bike looks like. http://www.gixxer.com/gallery/view_album.php?set_albumName=offthewall&page=13
