Last weekend (March 20-21) was the first race weekend of the year for the AFM. I took two of my 250s down and raced the 250 Production and 250 Superbike races. I really don't like the Buttonwillow track but had a great time anyway. We had 13 bikes show up for the Production race and 8 for the Superbike grid. Double the turn out we had last year.

Nice turnout & great pics, Craig! BW is a fun track, but the surface is really shagged these days. Who's this Kirk guy and where did he come from???!!!!

I actually just had to go online to look it up. I really don't like that track and just went out to play so I didn't pay much attention other than bringing it home without crashing.

250 Production: I placed 8th of 13.
250 Superbike: I placed 7th of 10.
