Going to Thunderhill Raceway Monday (10/11/2010)

I'm going riding at Thunderhill Park Raceway this coming Monday. As usual I will be bringing at least on of my 250s to ride. If Sportisi Matt gets his 250 together he will be there as well. Anyone want to come out and ride with us?

The day is only $150. More info is at: http://www.PacificTrackTime.com/

Last I heard it was morphing back into a street bike. His bikes parts get around more than Ron Jeremy's parts.

Let me see here. Brian has borrowed a rim (for 3 months), clipon, clutch lever, controls, clutch cable, rearset, seat. Kirk a radiator, tis, fork springs, caliper pins, my whole bike. Ryan has a muffler of mine.

You guys suck no wonder why I didn't race this season.



I won't be out there tomorrow since the front rim is coming off the bike and I have to go get a new rim for my car.

The day went great though it was very windy. We had about 150 riders and only 6 crashes all day. The rider/crash ratio was below average. Three of the crashes were in part helped by the wind pushing the riders into the turns faster than expected. On a normal day my bike can't pull redline down the front straight. On this day I was pulling 1500rpm past redline from the wind pushing me down the front straight.

Morning "C Group" lead around:

Craig you had to follow Tommy around? You poor guy. I think Tommy has crashed that bike 5 times since he got it.

I think he fell in the morning too. The sidestand switch got smashed so we bypassed it and got him back out.

It's fading. The florescent neon paint doesn't hold up to sunlight. In the off season I may fork out another $25 to repaint the bike.

Well, it should be about $15 this time 'cause I still have some paint left over.
