Yeah, I heard.  I guess better the water than the wall, right?  I figured out basically what had happened to me, I think.  I was getting that corner wrong all day and apexing it too soon.  When I picked up the throttle, I must have been leand way too far over for ANY throttle and that caused it to step out.  During the MW GP, I think I finally got it right.  Oh well...we'll find out in July if I can pick the pace back up.  I think I can run in the mid 1:45-1:46 range there once I stop babying it through there...lol.

I happened to be sitting at pit out mid afternoon on Monday after getting most of the cafe cleaned up.  A rider came in with his visor up and he said "I can't see!!".  Reason being was that the visor was about 80% covered with mud.  Ugh...what a mess.

There was a hole in 4 riders left that one of the cornerworkers was talking about.  I believe it was passed on to track maintenance so they could patch it.  Was that the same one you guys were hitting?

It was off of turn 10 and 11 (long right hander).  There was basically a 2 foot deep lake on the outside at the exit of the corner.  If you go off track there, you are done.

forget about air fence I suggest we use small pools of water before a fence.  Its already been tested by Brain.  I got a great view of it and it looked like the scenes in the Matrix and Speed when the cars hit the hydro barrier.  Brain you did good I hope my advice helped.

I had pretty much planned on laying back on my wife's suggestion as well.  I basically did exactly what you said, except I waited 1 lap too many to push in LW GP, but that's totally okay with me.  By MW GP, I finally was getting through that right hander fairly well, and it was fun having a bike with more straightaway speed than me to race with.  I just wish I hadn't lost my brakes, I was having a blast racing with Jim McKillip on his R6!  At least I have a long break between rounds to get everything fixed.  My boots lost their soles and I ripped a glove, so I need new gear too. :(  By the way, the water is pretty friendly to the rider for the most part...pretty nasty tumble turned into a bruised shoulder and stiff neck.   My boots, gloves, helmet, and leathers didn't fair quite as well though. :o ;D

Great job this weekend Mills, another 3 wins to add on to your already impressive season!  Congrats!!! :D

 It was pretty awesome i saw him jump up so i knew he was ok and i couldnt help but laugh because i was joking earlier about DUCS in the pond.i almost missed the chicane at the end of the straight because of it. Thanks for the pointers Mills helped out alot. I think im going to look into the motor stuff now you and bryan just walk away down the straights. If the race was over by the 1st turn i wouldve won them all. LOL
