Grab a hotel at that exit of 71, Days Inn is there and cheap. I know there are some others too, the Holiday Inn has a huge indoor pool/water park, not like Great Wolf Lodge etc, but better than just a pool, if anyone is coming. Good eats close to the track, bars, etc. Heck, if I go home Saturday night vs. drive up my parents aren't home you'd be more than welcome to just crash at their place. They wanted me to stop by if I ran the event anyways.

I still have my Sidi B2's just not much support/protection for Int. I wear 9.5US, little girly feet lol. THanks though buddy. Astar told me 1.5 weeks max so that would be end of this week or early next.
-
Damnit, cuz Sunday was the day I was thinking of. Moms in AK for the 2 weeks surrounding Momma's day. But yeah, don't skip out on that one, or you'll be in the doggy house lol. I think I'm going to run Sunday though, just need to get my boot back from Astar.

You going old man? I didn't know my parents were going out of town, and I have some stuff with the fiance's family Saturday, but not Sunday..... EDIT: I did however forget I don't have my outer shell for my SuperTechR's back from Astar yet, think my old ass Sidi B2's will be safe for a Sunday event? I definitely like the SuperTechR's support etc. over the old stuff. And bikes going back together tonight. Turned out I had a radiator hose split a little at Putnam, and the bodywork is repaired structurally but nothing cosmetic until end of the season, or I start running my good bodywork.

I bought 2 from Ebay, they are factory seconds and you can't tell the difference. TonnoPro brand, and paid like nothing for shipping and got it 2 days later. I can't see any difference at all from it and the others, and its a trifold, with closure snaps. I've had it on my truck 24/7/365 for 3 years now. Love it. Also my truck is an F250 LB so it was more than normal size trucks too. I got me and dad one and they discounted them by taking off the SH for both to 2 different address's.

Sucks dude, only time I've ever seen my father cry, even with losing both of his parents pretty young, was when we had to put our last dog down. Everytime I see a post like this and read it and look at my 7yr old pound mutt, I tear up. He lays by my side anytime I'm home and I can't shake him, he's attached. Dad love's when we bring Basco home but he's only there for a few days at a time, and when he leaves dad always is pretty tore up. Best wishes man, it will be lonely, but glad he lived a good life and you were able to enjoy him.

Motoseries PIRC (beaverun) trackday weekend
madcat6183 replied to blue03636's topic in Track is Crack
Yeah there is no racing that weekend at Beaver, I'm out, waiting for Nelson the following weekend. -
I can grab some via text, but I mean, they are tires with some track days and 1 race. I think they had 6 track days or 7 max and then 1 20 min race.

Pics look great boss, definitely good stuff. Brandon, yeah that has been the general thing I worked on that weekend, actually was doing better too, but naturally still go back to old ways too at times. I did make progress in that aspect. Other thing Craig has me working on is getting on the throttle earlier in the turn, as soon as I can see the finish of the turn, trying to get the drive out. I improved on that a lot on Sunday too, especially out of the last turn really getting it upright quicker and getting the power to the ground. I picked up a few things from watching Gray race too, and tried to put that into play. But yes, definitely need to make it more of a natural action for me to get the head lower. And yes, that dues Fray was totally annoying, not really sure why that was allowed especially in the races and shit, but whatever.

Thanks guys, I didn't get to post was reading from the celly this weekend, but I didn't get it and sounds like glad I didnt. Thanks all, Brian we'll chat, and anyone else with these little toys, I'll be in touch.

Dude offers? These things have a shit ton of street life, ask Craig or MyKill, or anyone that was at Indy last weekend. 50 picked up?

Experience w/ Midwest Cafe Racing Association
madcat6183 replied to ohdaho's topic in Track is Crack
I think I was looking for a place to pull off and pray that I make it through the weekend alive. I did, barely. -
Loved the write up on AFJ, I cant post there from work, but read it like 10 times just to try to get the feeling you had out there man. It's beyond a dream for me to even race competively in MS so I figure I can live it through reading aobut it. Congrats!

Okay, Im cheap, and just spent $$ on fixing the bike, only to find another issue I need to hammer our real fast. Then I realized I most likely am the only dude at track days and racing without one of the nice little GoPro's, so is this any good? http://www.woot.com/ Swann FreeStyle 1080p Action Cam $139.99 + $5 shipping CONDITION: New PRODUCT: 1 Swann SWVID-SPORTL Freestyle 1080p HD Action Cam w/ Waterproof Case, Detachable LCD Screen & Remote

Wait, isn't this supposed to be about Brandon and his first AMA race, not all this other bull shit? I mean honestly, I love this thread, but now it's like that dudes thread about falling over at 10mph, it just goes on and on about pointless shit in regards to the AMA race. When it all comes down to it, that is what this thread was for. He came in, started a professional thread, and many of us backed him, putting everything behind us for a time. It would be nice if everyone could act civilized for one thread, not even a period of time, just until this thread goes away. I find it hard to believe someone has that much hate for someone on an internet forum, that this isn't possible. And no, I'm not sucking Brandon's balls, I'm also proud of Neyra, Wrobel, Kerr, etc anyone at all who can go out and do these kind of things that are local, are exciting and we should do anything we can to support them. Like Pegram's shop, hell yes I want to support his shop, at the same time, could I save some $ by going elsewhere, probably, but I won't, I'll go with a local person who needs our support.

This is what Craig and I ran with all weekend, I will be running it on my tail too until it gets repainted over winter.

Damn I go to 1 concert for a few hours, tear into my bike when I get home, and miss all the fucking fun. Brian, you better be watching your cornhole next MS round cuz I will be there, and it's game on buddy. jk, you know I Love man butter, especially canolla oil. But for real, damn if my bike didn't have a hole in the radiator hose today when I got home and had been dropping WW in my lower. All my bodywork is off to be repaired Sunday and tomorrow Im hitting auto store to get new hose and refill/burp the coolant. Damn WW has gone through twice now on this bike so it better be running coooool. Like me.

Would've loved this event, but oh well. I just requested to leave early Friday's for the Nelson events I can make, so should be running all 3 days those weekends. Hoping some others can make it Friday too. Have fun up there, weather is looking better by the minute. We have a late model race tomorrow night at Attica too so hoping it doesn't rain out. 2K to win.

Moto Series Nelson Ledges 4/27-4/29 CANCELLED
madcat6183 replied to ama146's topic in Track is Crack
Heck wish I was closer, I could use some tips. Well actually nah, I read the how to's online and it's easy as pie, just gotta wear gloves, oh an a respirator, aka open the garage door and have fan blowing fumes out. -
Mike did you get any pics from Dubs house? Those IPA's were great!
