First of all Bernard I'm sorry you had bike problems I know it gave me a chance to catch up in points, but really I'm sorry man.  ;D Can't wait to continue the saga at Gingerman.

Ike, I know you still owe me one man and trust me I know you'll get me back too. LOL Really though we forget peoples names all the time so don't feel bad. Oh and thanks for the shrimp those were GOOD!

Kimmy, sorry that you had to just corner work but it was good seeing you anyway.

It was fun even though I suffered some bike problems during the last half of my races on Saturday.  

I also learned a valueable lesson on gear check before going out for the warm up lap...I forgot to strap my helmet so I pulled to the inside of 3 to get it buttoned up.  This was why I had to start from 20ft behind the last row  :-[ ...I barely made the race.

I guess that's why I'm an Amature...still making rookie mistakes.

Thank you Chris Younger for allowing Mike to finish his Supertwins Race on your bike.  Also thank you Kevin Clark for the offer of your bike...again.  We should have his motor built by Barber in Aug.

Also thank you Lithium for Bringing gloves for me.  You guys are always great.

Sorry I didn't make the Kegel BBQ on Sunday...I had my hands full.

Johnny, I hope your head is ok after your spill in 5.

It was great seeing everyone.  Great turn out.

Cornerworking is FUN!  I'd much rather be doing ANYTHING at the track than sitting at home, looking at my lonely race trailer!  Besides, I spent all of Sunday "socializing" and catching up with everyone.

CCS AM 815... or was that 158?

I agree!  BHF is awesome!  A lot harder track IMO than Gateway.  I had a blast there.

Highlights for me include.

It was nice to put a face to the rear tire... I keep seeing - Chuck ;)

Good to meet Super Dave and buy one of his shirts.  Looks like he faired better than his bike from the crash.  Glad you're OK.

Watching some dude (not sure who) come down the entrance to the track with (apparently no brakes) rear end a guy, then fall over, almost taking the guy next to him out.  LW practice on Saturday I think.

Pitting across from Ptak after a couple years meeting him during LCR school.

Watching the guy tankslap down the front straight  :o, slide thru turn one then get up and walk away.  Don't know who you are, but glad you are OK as well.  One of the scariest moment's I've ever witnessed.

Racing with my brother #711.  He drove all the way from PA to race! :o

That was Mr. tshort saying "hello" to Roger  ;) All was well, and yeah, Tom had no brakes.

Do or do not, there is no "try".

Hey Scott, it was good to see you out of your helmet as well.  When I finally find a YSR I can afford we need to meet up at a Kart track sometime.  You going to Barber?

I'll keep an eye out for a YSR for you.  I would like to get it on a kart track sometime as well.  Gotta get it looking as good as Mike's though!

As of now, I am planning on going to Barber.  Already have the hotel room booked!  You two going?

lbk

Chuck was that you pitted next to us with the tzr?

Chuck

Scott- We are absolutly going to Barber.  I'm already signed up for the track day, and we are renting a an RV to get down there.  See you on the track!

lbk- No TZR in my pit...we have a yellow YSR, and a jank little yellow pocket bike.  Whats a TZR?

That was Sean Ryan. He's perfectly fine except for the brown spots he left in his shorts.

Gee, thanks Alexa for illuminating that.   :-/ BTW, that'd be Mr. Expert Mr. Short to you... ;)  Geez - I guess some things ya just gotta experience before you actually learn them.  So pump up those brakes, y'all, after front wheel changes...Sorry 'bout that, Roger - glad I didn't cause you any collateral damage.  Thanks for helping me stop.

Ok Mr. EXPERT tshort ;D. I think everyone has dumped a bike in the pits at least once. I remember one year Rhiannon had just had a killer race and came down hot pit into the paddock and just fell right over.

I've knocked mine off my stand at least twice.  :-/

Roger's fine. After all, he won on Sunday. Been griinin' since then. ;) :D ;D ;D
