  1. I end up regretting pretty much every post I make that isn't "real life" related. I shouldn't care what you think, and you shouldn't care what I think, but sometimes if I'm already in a bad mood it just spills out into this little "Quick Reply" box right here.
  2. Just the squeaking and squealing type noises through the paddock at low speeds, especially cold. Sometimes I give them a few jabs to try to make them stop, usually unsuccessful. I don't recall the stock pads ever making noise.
  3. My Vesrahs make race pad type noises I wouldn't tolerate on the street. For street riding I personally would use OEM.

    So I have a head on view of an oncoming motorcycle over 500ft away in a 35mph zone and I should assume I DON'T have at least ten seconds to make that turn, because he COULD be in my passenger seat in less than four? When I rode on the street I assumed that car was going to make that turn and was prepared to take evasive action. Responsibility. Accept it.
  5. I want an "I heart Mohammed" t-shirt with this guy on it:
  6. First sticking gas pedals now poisonous gas clouds... the end is near for sure!

    It's not, I'm sick of seeing it. Did I mention I agree with you? It's like parents protecting their kids - no matter how blatantly wrong they may be, they blindly take their side...

    Totally agree. Just never wanted to post it in an RIP thread.

    Nice job. Great success. Maybe that's why he was using the rear brake.
  10. C'mon GoPro - get those Chinese to work on copying this! He compound fractured his lower leg exactly six weeks ago.
  11. Pretty much the same as everything that's been said. Cash for toys. All my powersports toys have been used a couple years old from private sellers. Although brand new $5000 1125Rs and $6500 ZX6Rs were tempting this past year. If something had 1.9% financing like my truck did I'd just leave the money in the bank.
  12. Website says "All riders must be at least 18 years of age and have a valid driver's license."
  13. I know the bar has been set low, but if someone wants to give me FULL PRICE ($275) for this spot, you can have it. Otherwise I'll just go. I'm kinda low on money and motivation and would rather save it for another day. As for what "advanced" means, perhaps "Orange Crush" or somebody who has been there already this year can fill you in on that. When I registered they were talking "Sport" and "Supersport." Need to know before Friday to cancel vacation.
  14. I was nervous about the 1-2 shift also, but it goes through it just fine at the dragstrip. I don't use 1st at the track. Clutchless shifting is really only good for high-RPM WOT, if you're just putzing around use the clutch. On my CBR and probably most 600s, the revlimiter is a good shiftpoint for 1-2 and 2-3 with the RPM drop. After that there may be something to be gained by shifting a little earlier, depends on your power curve.
  15. Nothing changed with the track in the past two months. Only place I notice bumps is the exit of 8 - how many people go down there? You should try Nelson - you'll love it.
  16. I'll be there Saturday. Faded-was-bright-orange #67 CBR.
  17. I thought it was "the two finger tongue in between oral thing."
  18. Who is this Brian and what all does he do?
  19. What sucks is they didn't give the poor guy credit for 8th place. Looks to me like him and the bike both crossed the line, but official results show him a lap down.
  20. Could've used this YESTERDAY. My dental bill today was about 10 track days...

    I'm an impartial party with a dumb phone, but I had to post the rebuttal. Gotta get that NASCAR app... it's got Jimmy Johnson! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UAOtC9QfXac
  22. I'm sure you were. Hell, I usually am. You should've signed up for A and left me an I spot.
  23. If anybody knows anybody selling Tuesday "I" let me know.
  24. Didn't read all five pages, but get your license before you go to court. I have seen this before and the judge dismissed the case. When I had a case "dismissed," there were no costs.
