Midwest Cafe Racing Association (MCRA) allows removal of the air box this year. So does the CMRA (Texas based organization). Not sure about WERA. As was said, some outfits allow it, some don't. ...

Thanks for the responses, everyone. I think the weight difference may not be worth it. If it were a couple of pounds, maybe, but less than a pound, probably not worth the effort. Had to ask. Now...

Rear suspension link

Question about the rear suspension link--that link that connects the dog bones to the shock to the frame. I have a 2008 which has a plate steel link. Later models are cast out of aluminum. Does...

Nice video. Nice riding. Looks like you had everyone easily covered. I may end up moving to Texas and hope to compete in E Superstock. Sounds and looks like you guys have a great series going.

Hmmm. I had heard a lot of insurance companies cover your bike if you crash it on a track but not in a timed event, their logic being that they'd prefer you crashed there rather than on the street...

I start with 26 cold front and rear on Super Corsa fronts and Rosso IIs on the rear. Post session pressures are 28 to 29 and the wear pattern looks good.

Putnam Park

Putnam Park is a great track. Turn one particularly fun on a 250. Its just west of Indianapolis. One of the best kept secrets of the midwest.
