  1. It's like $2200 for the Vegas CSS. That's 14.5 track days at Mid-O if you buy certs.
  2. If it wasn't 15 track day's worth of $$ I'd consider it Apparently we got our answer for where our supporter money is going though. HAVE FUN BEN.
  3. If it's cold or wet I would be wary at Mid-O. If it's warm and sunny, have fun!
  4. I think it's an innate dislike more than a fear. The future you's hate for slabbing becomes so strong it affects all you's throughout all time. I'm assuming this happens to everyone, except people riding Harleys. They have never made it as far as the freeway so they don't know how bad it is. Ignorance is bliss.
  5. @jacobhawkins and I are now organizing a monthly Kart meet up during winter-sad-season. The Plan: Meet at GPK Columbus at 2:30pm on Sunday, 3/11 I will be purchasing the 3-race package ($60), everyone else is free to do what they want We should be done with karts by around 5PM. At this time we will head to the Columbus Brewing Company Restaurant for food and drinks - I will make reservations once we have a solid number of people planning to attend (the cost of all food/drink/kart tickets are each individual's responsibility) Website: http://www.gpkcolumbus.com/ Post up if you'd like to attend. Friends and family are welcome... they have mini-karts for little kids (toddler age).
  6. Yeah I'm at about $46/mo ($23 for each bike) for full coverage on both the Street Triple and the CBR1k - through USAA/Progressive (USAA farms their motorcycle insurance out to Progressive). As long as it isn't a squid bike I think rates stay pretty low.
  7. oh that's right. i would imagine stock springs would work for you in the gsxr forks, assuming they're still in there...
  8. I did 1.0kg sonic springs and 20wt oil when I had my forks redone on the SV. You would probably want 0.90/0.95 with 15wt oil or something around there if you go the Sonic route. The front end felt really good after just swapping springs and oil btw. I did not get the emulators.
  9. 06-07 ZX10R shock is a direct bolt-on, as is the ZX14 shock. Cheap on Ebay. Easy swap.
  10. Tank slapper in a straight line on the interstate? Whoolies were too dank I'm guessing.
  11. That's what 50 degree late winter weekends are for. Time to get out the wrenches.
  12. Triumphs are mechanically sound, the electric system is what seems to cause the most issues. Except for certain Daytona clutch components
  13. Yeah that's fine. We'll schedule a Sunday next time, though at this point weather is starting to get better so will probably be motorcycle time soon.
  14. So there's over a 2 hour wait for karts. Since Jacob and I are the only ones here we may just bug out and try again another day. Probably a Sunday next time.
  15. Me! I'll be there a little early to make sure everyone gets into the same heat groups.
  16. 15% less pace for 100% more comfort. Not a bad trade.
  17. tell them to pay you what he would have made tomorrow on top of your pay.
  18. The second amendment is meant to be a check for the standing army, which is under the control of the government. If someone got into a leadership position and started going against the will of the citizens of the country, the citizens should have the power and ability to unseat the standing government and install one that represents their interests. Most of the 1st world population today sees how things are as the only way they are, they don't realize that the people don't belong to the government, the government belongs to the people. These are the people who are happy to give away their rights as a person so that life doesn't seem as hard for them. I'm not a city dweller by nature. I grew up in the middle of the woods in Vermont. Everybody had lots of guns. Gun violence? Didn't really exist. Now I live and work in Columbus. People around me, for the most part, are terrified by guns. They think that freedom of speech is an outdated right that needs to be reigned in, because people shouldn't have their feelings hurt. They use the argument that the founders of the country meant muskets and not hand guns and AR15s. They don't understand the bigger picture. I'm not sure who's fault this is. Is it the education system failing them? Did their parents not explain things well enough, or at all? Is it their own fault for not being able or willing to think about the consequences of what they want done despite information being widely available today? It will be interesting to see where this all leads. With all that said, I am not against stricter requirements for owning firearms. Safety and training classes should be pretty close to mandatory. Background checks should actually be functional and not just for show, etc. At some point though, people need to realize that there will never be a true solution to the mass murder problem. Some people want to do damage and that's that.
  19. Conspiracies are fun, like watching a movie is fun.
  20. Bill Cooper thinks that lizard people from the center of the earth are fighting the illuminati for dominance over earth.
  21. There ya go, a well-researched 2 hour look at Bill Cooper.
  22. Welcome to winter OR, the worst place on the internet.
