I believe they are pretty legit on tech. I know STT let Andys friend tech at like 845, missed the first session to run his warmers, but I know it used to be you had to be there by the riders meeting.... As in signed in, then can tech after.

I wanted to suck that KTM off rotten. It sounded so amazing, and after the Sunday race he revved the shit out of it in the Esses and we were right on the fence, deathning. Also saw the wad up in T1 on the 2nd 600 race and it was ugly, but glad I was there on the start to see it.
-
Yeah thunder valley wheelies after the 2nd race was awesome! We were back there with Apch8r, Blue###?, and myself. Free leathers? Nice score, I don't even wanna know who you blew to get those. Wait, I don't give a shit, who was it so I can jump on next season? Saw about everyone I had planned on today, and really got pumped up to ride Tuesday weather permitting. Stopped on the way home, got my trailer all loaded(minus bike, and gear), and ready to load tomorrow after working a double. Heading back up Tuesday 6am to take the green at 9am sharp! LOL GREAT superbike race too, damn that finish was nuts.

Just in from the AMA races today, wow, AWESOME! Track and facilities definitely looked great and I am thinking the new owner's are about to pump some cash into them. Anyways, Dub and I talked today should be signing up tomorrow for Tuesday, but may wait to see weather too, all of a sudden they are saying PM storms? WTF.

Actually keeping OD off of an ATX is better for the tranny, shifts less and keeps in the same RPM range, so the tranny works easier. Yes it will run hotter, but as a whole, it is better on the car, oil etc. Especially if around hills, grades, etc. Engine compression braking even on a small car is easier on towing than using brakes. With larger trucks, 2500, F250's etc. clicking the "Tow Haul" button is simply taking OD off and inducing more of the engine compression braking. In my case I use an F250 6.0 with custom tow tunes as well, but as a whole, definitely pay attention to how much your car is shifting on any grades etc. If it is shifting often, turn OD off to keep it in a gear, your car will thank you. But I would definitely recommend changing the oil before leaving and when you get back. UP is so amazing, my favorite part was Fort Mackinaw for sure, but I loved the bridge too. My cousin went to college there just before the bridge at like Superior or something, said in the winters 8 foot snow drifts all over campus.

Make sure you get a Dixie Chopper 0 turn, obviouslly. Nice place man, very jealous of the land. I need to get out of the burbs into the country asap and get my pull barn built because I have way too many toys and the amount I spend in storage a year would pay for the barn in about 2 years.,

I pull on a regular baisis, 24ft 28ft, 12ft, brakes no brakes, whatever it is. Popups are made to be towed by smaller vehicles, hence the shorter frame, wheel base, lighter etc. You don't need to upgrade anything for sure. If your car is an ATX which I think you said it is, you actually have one already, maybe not a huge one, but it ll have at least a small one. Brakes, the thing will barely even be noticeable unless coming down some crazy hill or braking to not rearend someone, but still, won't be an issue. The biggest thing is actually making the tailer sit level. This is the biggest thing with campers that people seem to not take into account. Keeping it level will make the tongue weight vs axle weight what it should be and make your car not hate you. You are fine, and the UP is amazing! I would love to take my TT up there and camp actually. Sounds like a next summer idea.

Good karma bud. Great looking dog too. If I didnt have my little killer, I'd be all in for this.

Dude I totally agree, you need to ram that chick. Actually from what I heard she has porn offers on the table already. I'd give it 30 days or less until there's a sex video from the day of release, if she isn't getting done in jail already on camera that is. Actually, wait, did the jury have some males in it? Or wait, females... maybe the tape is already made hence to verdict.
-
Used to be you couldn't wear shorts in the hot pits, before and after. I believe during Cart weekend it may still be like that. But that was a long time ago when I was a little guy, 15+ years ago when those rules were in effect. Believe they have changed for everything, but like I said, maybe not Cart in the HOT pits.
-
Wow, I need to change my jeans.

So lost LOL

Not at all. And for the record Nancy Grace can suck it, actually they all can.
-
My point exactly, the SYSTEM worked exactly as it should. Like with OJ, Ray Lewis, etc. Do I care, not really, but I thought it was a good post and would get great reactions. So far so good! Call me Ringo JR on this one Maybe I just think everyone who "may" be guilty should be put to death, call it controlling the population, or thinking green. Heck I'd be fine with killing a lot of people who are in prison just to reduce the population and save me some tax dollars for something that might actually help the world, like I dunno, college educations, new jobs, roads, etc. And yes, I am a sick person, I know.

Reacon, Gpa was a vet, 3 purple hearts, and buried with full military honors, maybe that was why it meant so much to me because people were paying their respects, even if not trying.
-
Ya I priced tickets for Justin Moore, Darius, etc. and I was like I just can't do it with the drive etc. Plus Im out of town every weekend this month, and Superbike weekend at Mid O. Justin, you are going to LOVE Justin Moore, he is awesome and his new CD is even better than the last one!
-

Another epic fail on our justice system... When do we get to get Old Sparky back out for some fun? http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/U/US_CASEY_ANTHONY_TRIAL?SITE=WBNSTV&SECTION=HOME&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT I mean for real, what is the worst part of this? That she just partied balls for 31 days before even reporting her own child missing? That her dad has now basically been called out for molesting his daughter so she is nuts(But not nuts per the lawyers)? The fact that she most likely will serve NO time after she gets her time served awarded? I mean someone needs to put a bullet in her head, wait that is too easy. Feed her to alligators? Sharks? Maybe just a trip to a real prison for a few days? The US is just totally fucked these days.

Not to beat an old thread up more, but for reference; I got to New York Saturday about 3pm, didn't drive because I was too tired from almost getting killed by a drunk diver Friday night(Saturday morning) on our way back from the races at 1am on 23 N under Pickaway line, everyone is okay, but another race hauler got f"d up real bad, and 1 guy has 2 broken vertebrae... Anyways, I grabbed my moms ride, Ford Edge, and rolled to the gym. I haven't drove in NY for over 2 years mind you, so I was kinda like well let's just see how this goes. Mind you 4th of July weekend.... FINE, no traffic issues, nothing. All weekend same shit. I drove all over town, etc. no issues, no assholes, nothing. I get to PA today after leaving NY and am driving on I90 and hit construction, 5 miles in 2 hrs, not due to assholes, but because it was 1 lane(good idea PA) let's not wait until after the 5th of July. Anyways again, I get back to OH and CLE sucks right away, people up there are close to as bad of drivers as down here, but then I got back to CMH and wanted to instantly kill everyone on the road. It was after rush hour, and yet, people drove like there was an atom bomb going off behind them. I cruise at 80 normally, so I keep up etc. but then some Choch in a Volvo comes flying up in the left lane, slams his brakes, cuts to far right, cuts back, then back, etc. then gets off at 33 towards Bexley.... I wanted to get him out and literally run him over. The end.

Dude thank you for that. I am about to lay down and get ready to go back to work after a 4 day weekend, and I won't be as miserable anymore. Thank you.

No dude, nude pics. WTF is that, just a creeper status pic. One thing I will say, if I come upon a 2 lane road, 1 lane each direction, and there is a funeral coming at me, I pull over and stop. I know a lot of people will flame on here, but when my gpa died, it meant a lot to my family, and I know it meant a lot to me. I personally think this is how it used to be and how it still should be, but whatever floats everyones boat. If it is a multi lane 1 direction lane, highway, middle lane, etc. then yes, I slow, and will pass, but I do acknowledge them mentally and always make mental note. So did you hit it?
