Click and win...

and if you don't win then wait 7 days and I'll have another one. No more excuses get to the track!

when do I bag on STT? I have had 2 bad experiences with STT that I can think of, and I disagree with allowing anyone and their brother to sign up in Advanced group, but I don't believe I've ever (seriously) insulted STT as an organization. I've certainly joked about it, but I have also posted "NESBA sucks" before.

I have never had anything but positive experiences with STT's staff, and i routinely recommend their Novice program for first-time track riders, and talked about the negative experience I had as a first-time rider in NESBA's "B" group.

I understand where you're coming from regarding advanced group. We've made it a point to weed out those that are clearly not advanced riders starting last season. I noticed an improvement already this year based on customer reviews/feedback. This is the first time I've mentioned what we've been doing in the midwest regarding this. There are pros and cons to doing it our way and the way nesba does their A group riders. Our stance on A group is the rider MUST be predictable, able to handle a fast pace (not ride a fast pace but handle being passed close and fast), and be consistent. Obviously, you cant have someone so off pace that they are a danger to themselves or other riders.

Ultimately, it is really a personal preference where you like to spend your money. Honestly as long as it's on the track it doesnt matter where you spend it. If it werent for STT and Nesba (predominantly-not bagging on other orgs nesba and stt just happen to be the largest in midwest) a LOT of guys would be trying to ride on the street like it were a track day. Part of the reason I devised this program is because of an accident involving a bike that I dealt with. Suffice it to say the rider lost...

Hopefully you'll come back out and we'll win your patronage.

OMG how horrid. prayers to family

My little guy has a 50 and a pocketbike. he literally highsided the pocketbike and my wife freaked out. he had on full gear (dirt bike chest protector too) and was fine. But this news makes me really nervous as a parent.

Guys,

We are working out some details for a different date but this event has cancelled. We (stt) will be announcing it via our web site shortly

Sorry for the hassle guys and thank you for your support and understanding

Nick

He has an odd twitch and talks to himself, so normal.

I hear twitching can be exciting when engaged in self love. i suppose combining that with "the stranger" technique would be close to a porn star

Be careful. Nick is a bit of an asshole, he forces people to take ambulance rides

If I'm not leaving for vacation that day, I may just put my track bike back together and make it out. It's still in pieces from my trip to ACC last fall.

that nick guy is such a toolbox

sorry to hear the bike is still in shambles, but you're ok though, right?

That takes care of most of my issues, but I cake on the foundation. I digress...

5'10" 135lbs You should worry about getting food before you worry about holsters!

.

Props for not only being sarcastic and pointing out malnutrition but all on the first response

well done sir, well done

Gunshow, looks like I will get to meet you a few weeks early. I know I will be there, already on your staff list.

awesome!

Road America is a great track. It is a haul though...especially since you have to go through Chicago.

and that part blows i assure you

and another reason all states should have this

good pinch

Damn I can't spam here...WTF!

TTN.com will be changing its name at the end of this season, so it seemed useless to keep the site active.

ok, so 50 posts. makes sense

not sure why but if I respond to a PM it wont let me respond again for 120 minutes. Is it something I did?

how do i resolve that?

I give this thread an A+ for originality and misuse of spousal rights

OR'S,

STT will be at Nelson Ledges June 25/26! Join us for our one and only event this season! You know the rest...

I'll be directing this event. Maybe we could have a little paddock party Sat nite?

thoughts?

two friends hanging out

f#1) dude! guess what?! Im going to thailand on vacation!

f#2) really! that's awesome. Did you know you can have sex with 15 yr old girls there and it's LEGAL!!

F#1) Bro, the fact that it's illegal here isn't what keeps me from doing it.

At this stage of the game and doing what I do for a living this really comes as no surprise

pavement hurts when you fall down walking...so that's really gotta suck

lucky !!!!

would have been better if the guys racing their cars had exploded in flames

I practice dry drills with my kid all the time. My 7 yr old is on the ball and can even name the parts of a firearm. We did drills LONG before we ever went to our range (I have a make shift range on a family farm) and fired a single shot. If you teach them right from the start you won't have issues like that occur.

My step son learned in a simliar fashion but was older. He kept putting his finger on the trigger during dry practice. I solved the problem by stabbing him in the hand with a fork after telling him twice. He's good to go now...he only uses spoons due to the mental trauma, but at least he wont accidentally discharge a gun LOL (I kid about the spoon part)

I know this is thread jacking, so please forgive me, but if you guys want I'll put a deal together for our Nelson Ledges date at the end of June.

If someone wants to be the head honcho and coordinate a Nelson date (a go to guy for OR members) I'll comp him/her the weekend as part of the deal. Coordinating stuff like this is a huge pain so who ever does it should be rewarded IMO.

thoughts?

very cool

I didn't read the whole thread so excuse me if I seem stupid if someone else from STT responded.

I will waive membership fees for Grattan ONLY if 5 or more attend the date you guys want.

Please let me know who will be the coordinator and the final decision so I can let the gals know in the office to ensure it's smooth operationally when you purchase.
