what

Race 1:

Hell yeah!

Stock. You don't want to be trying to sort out any electrical issues you'll encounter from jonny the armchair electrician putting lights and shit all over a 300.

bunch of dickheads, should just mind their own damn business. what is this country coming to?!

Have him go try them on at IP then buy a 2 year old version of what he likes online at a discount. For the record, I really like my Bell Stars. Both the old model and the new.

Sadly I will be out of town for the next 2 weekends.

@Helmutt I didn't buy it from an OMRL racer, but it is an OMRL bike. Apparently it won a championship at some point. It won't be winning a championship with me on it, lol... at least not until I lose 200lbs. Fortunately the crash that shook me up was less to do with track conditions and more to do with my own stupidity. The track is grippy, especially in the afternoon when it warms up. Turn 10 (CCW) is a little iffy off the race line though because of the dirt track runoff. I would avoid running wide, and walking the corner before going out just to see how it is on whatever day you're there.

So at this point I've lost about 15lbs since December and gained probably close to 20lbs of muscle. Stupid gym. I'd be happy with the progress except that the XR100 doesn't care how much of my weight is muscle vs. fat, it's just sad I weigh what I do.

The crash on Lap 1 Saturday shook me up a bit, took me all of Saturday and most of Sunday to start trusting the tires/track surface. Should be good to go next time I'm out. I want to aim for a 1:00 lap time. That's shaving 5 seconds. Pretty sure I can do that by just maintaining corner speeds a bit better, I've still got lean angle, looking at your photos. Thanks for coming down man, hope you take the leap. Casts after the wedding ceremony are acceptable, you'll even have a built-in carer beholden to your health and wellbeing to nurse you back to health (not that any time spent healing won't be held over your head in the direst terms later down the road)

More peeps come on out next time! @jacobhawkins and I won't be at the race on 5/5, but I think we will both be at the race on 5/19-20 at CRP. You can watch me lose again.

This is public land, not sure how they can restrict access to 99.9% of it, legally speaking. All said and done, you recovered really quickly, Tim. Glad you're still riding with us.

this is why you get beat up.

Welcome.

I hope the winner bans you.

raced the shit out of it.

Dunlop, overall, is less expensive than all the other (good) tire brands. Weirdly.

You make it sound like a 3 day break from this site is a bad thing.

Twilight is for I and A groups only. I have yet to go to one but I've heard that they get a little...heated. AFAIK engine ice is fine. If you see bikes in I group with lights still on, it's probably because it was the day they moved up from novice and didn't prep the bike for intermediate. The included lunch is for people with wristbands only, but you can buy lunch for anyone without a wristband.

A king size dildo, because being a size queen was so 5 inches ago? (this is what happens when you ask us to guess a new item, with absolutely no context as to what it could possibly be)

Interesting, I didn't think she was on a 400. I'm really interested in what will happen at VIR after adjustments are made to restrictions on the bigger displacement Jr Cup bikes.

I'll be there mid-day Tuesday probably. I plan to leave Columbus pretty early and try to get to Townsend by noon. Not sure when Tracy and Kevin will get there but they should be down at some point Tuesday as well.

goat skin leather... rossi is the goat... rossi wears dianese... um... aren't they taking things a bit too far here?

Not today, yesterday. Oil change in Jacob, Jacob's dad and my XR. Fork oil change in all 3 XR. New front and rear tire put on my XR. Rear innertube replaced due to puncture. Broken spoke replaced on my XR. Catch-can half assembled out of PVC pipe. New numbers put on my XR. Pretty much ready to race this weekend. Big thanks to @jacobhawkins for turning his garage into an XR race shop.

So are they full metal or are they leather? Which is it!? or do they mean metal like, heavy metal. Ozzy Italian Batskin Metal Leather Gloves.

Welcome. Pretty Trumpet you got there.
