Screw the ferry that was me on the sea doo pulling the bike out to pit out! ;)  

Anyone else miss a race to the piss poor PA system?  Thank god I only lost one spot in the points...it'll take an act of god to get it back though.

We were pitted right next to the registration building and I swear they skipped some calls completely.  We could hear most of them clearly but somehow missed some for practice sessions.   :-/

Also, I thought the gravel road was supposed to be getting paved this year?   ???

 I felt like I was in the middle of a soap opra the whole weekend... I felt like the mediator... Edgar had to pick up my jaw as I saw the whole thing. Then seen him going to Pegrams pit. To me a good ole' generator put me right to sleep. Then after a couple of my buddies got in a tangle on the track, I felt like the dad when both came up and told on each other ;D Good times. Good times. Super Dave, you need to quit that Formula stuff and hang out more. ;)

I personally like MAM. Great track layout. Good surface and grip. Yes, there are some paddock issues, but they are pretty minor compared to the superior track layout, safety and surface quality it provides over...say...HPT.

You're not being fair.  You can't blame the track for the long drive or the hot weather when you were there.  Yeah, I am sure that you have other reasons, but I'm sure that influenced you.  Plus, I remember when you said that you hated Gingerman.  Now, we both think it is a great track. :P

I went to MAM for the first time this weekend.  No electricity sucks.  Poor PA system was a pain.  Track owners that think it is as nice as Road A was kind of silly.    But, I thought the actual track was a blast.  I look forward to going back again.

Hey Stumpy, now that you bring up Super Dave into this... When I first read the thread title, I thought it was going to be about Super Dave and Lil' Thorny doing the "JIHAD - scream and dance" thing while waiting to go out on the track for the MWGP Race! Or maybe when Super Dave was mooning us while off the bike as the one board was coming out! That was some funny shiitz I tell you!!

What is this fascination that Dave has about his own arse?  He mooned Jensen as we were watching him from inside T5-6 yesterday.   ;D

CCS AM 815... or was that 158?

Jeff

Did they fix the surface, or did it cure to a usable condition?  When I was there, it was so soft that they had a steam-roller lay the corners back down between races.  And it ATE tires... like 1 set per 2-3 sprint races...

Maybe I could try it again now...  I did like the layout, and the facilities were decent.  

I still don't understand why we don't have a March/April date there versus friggin July...

I'd heard that the track was bumpier this year but I didn't notice it.  A new track record was set this weekend so I'm assuming I'm not the only one who thought it was all right.  The surface of the paddock however...
