  1. Anywhere with STT, Midohio, or FastTrax/Motoseries - all have very structured novice programs. If you're confident NESBA will turn you loose on a green track and keep an eye on you, will provide 1-on-1 if you ask for it or look like you really need it. No. My fitness sucks and financially I'd rather do a day every two weeks than a weekend every month. Of course I already know the tracks and don't travel far. Mostly track rental pricing and a little less to do with the organization itself. Relax, rehydrate, eat something, BS with friends and pit-neighbors. If you are in a structured novice group you'll spend half the time in a classroom. Generally two weeks to avoid late fees and possible sellout. With the economy and whatnot mid-to-late season last year it seemed most of the dates still had openings day of. Don't be afraid to ask anyone around you any questions you may have, pretty much everyone there likes to talk about this stuff, and will help you out with anything as long as there not about to get on a bike and head out.
  2. 2 years ago first day at MO (~April 25) was 75 and sunny. This past year was cooler but not cold (60s?) and I got two sessions in before the rains came. I usually take the gamble because I'm anxious to go and don't want to be left out if the weather turns out OK. I also love the Saturday 2pm start and a track cleaned by karts. Cold MO is okay by me, wet MO is a no go. Even if the weather's nice be careful first thing in the morning. I start off slow and never have had a problem once the tires are warmed up. I know what's coming first lap out of the keyhole for the first few sessions though.
  3. So funny but so true...
  4. Extended cab is a big plus for this reason. I have a bike, ramps and gas in the bed when I travel. Everything else fits in the cab.
  5. Any pickup will work. Need to leave the tailgate down on my Tundra, no big deal.
  6. Might not *need* it for the pipe. The way to go is to have an assortment and play around. I usually keep enlarging the main jet until it starts to choke near max RPM WOT.
  7. It didn't hold my attention for more than a few minutes, and for some reason I recall liking "Mean Girls." One of those things with the same name, whole new cast.
  8. I turned on the TV while I was eating, saw about 5 minutes and flipped to something else. I think I watched a few minutes of "Mean Girls 2" and then "Tosh.0." In the few minutes I watched, I likened it to baseball. How long would that speech have lasted if there wasn't meaningless applause every ten words? Kinda like if the pitcher would quit screwing around and just throw the damn ball a baseball game would be over in about 20 minutes.
  9. Word. I'm unemployed at the moment and will play man-friend for food/lodging/travel compensation.
  10. So the plate for my bike has been expired over three years - if I go to "renew" it there is going to be a $20 surcharge? Can I just pretend it was never registered and get a new plate?

    Ice ready

    This took hours. It better work.
  12. Or maybe he wants to go drag racing, like he said in the first post. Bad day?
  13. When I first saw these I was pumped on them for the price that was quoted, turns out that price included every possible government incentive they could find and was actually only legitimate some random place in CO. As for a neat track day gimmick, I was curious if they could potentially run a 20 minutes per hour duty cycle, and that answer is no - recharge times are pretty ridiculous.
  14. You screwed that up. We would have taken "slily" or "slliy".
  15. Have a couple shocks lying around and figured I'd see if anyone local has a use for them before I throw them on eBay. From a 2001 Honda CR250R Honda P/N 52400-KZ3-L11 Fresh oil and nitrogen 9/7/10, hasn't been on a bike since $60 From a 2007 Honda CBR600RR Honda P/N 52400-MFJ-A01 Hasn't been serviced but good working order Preload adjuster has been disassembled and cleaned out so it actually moves $30 Shipping $20 if you insist on making me go through that hassle.
  16. Like you hit Tilted Kilt last week? Sorry, I guess I shouldn't give you shit since I don't know you - look forward to meeting you sometime.
  17. How are they going to talk on the phone and type on their computer if they have to shift gears at the same time?
  18. I did that once. That's why the door of my truck is messed up if you've ever seen it. Got caught on something when I was jumping back in to stop it.
  19. Holly phuck. I thought this was going to be something blown out of proportion as usual but that's insane.
  20. That's a bunch of crap. Perhaps a better resource for CCW is http://www.ohioccwforums.org/
  21. Just ordered $40 worth of Kold Kutter screws for the XR50. Will try to be ready to ride with you guys next time. Hasn't run in well over 3 years - hope it fires right up. I wonder if I should do the CR125 instead?
