I group allows for those three to be secured with RTV as well if you can't safety wire them. I don't think you HAVE to have anything safety wired until you get into Advanced. My slow azz will be running in Novice for my first track day this season. Figure I could use a refresher.

Same here, watching the weather. Planning on going one of the two days. New rubber will be here tomorrow!

The balls... the huge, massive, hulking balls these guys have. Everytime I watch footage from this race it makes me just a tiny bit ill thinking about it. It's like my balls are trying to crawl back inside to cry in a dark corner by my stomach. I don't get that from watching anything else...

This looks like a blast! How much would it cost to get started? Can you join mid-season? Are there any practice days and someone willing to let a supern00b take their bike for a spin (wreck)?

Thanks!

n00b question before I order a set of tires for my 04 R6 that will only be seeing trackdays. Going with a set of Dunlop Q3s; should I bump up to 190/55 for the rear or stick with the stock 180/55? My Speed Triple has 190/55s on it and I would like to repurpose the tires for it once I wear out the sides on the track (if I manage to ride that hard). I know acceleration will obviously be affected a bit, but how will the handling change? Thanks

I'm kind of a lazy asshole. I usually only wave at bikes I like or people I know. Or hot joggers of course. People who wave at me usually just get a couple of fingers lifted off of my left handlebar in redneck salute style.

Niiiice. I'm waiting on a 200DX to arrive to replace my Econotig. Expensive, but I can't wait to see how a high end inverter will compare.

sold

I decided to upgrade so I'm selling my Miller Econotig TIG/Stick welder. It's a great basic TIG or stick welder that can weld just about anything. Aluminum, stainless, titanium, mild steel, anything. Comes with the foot pedal, 150 amp torch, ground cable, stick welding cable, and I can throw in a few tungstens some filler rod. Asking $1100 OBO.

I figure it's a long shot, but I'm looking for a used/refurbished Miller Dynasty 200DX. Anyone have one for sale or can get one at a good price?

I would go with the Spark if you want to get a cheap couch. They have been getting great reviews everywhere and are supposedly a lot of fun. With the price they have on them, these things are going to be everywhere this summer if they can meet demand, which means the aftermarket should be very good. The motor is a slightly modified snowmobile motor they have used for years so it should be reliable (for a Seadoo). Also, while the top speed might not be that extreme, they will be propped low so they should still have pretty good acceleration up to that low top speed.

I bought three '05 RXPs two years ago from the original owner, with various Riva packages, all with around 40 hours on them. If you don't mind rebuilding superchargers, replacing valves, broken timing chains, and troubleshooting leaky intercoolers instead of having fun on the lake, by all means buy the RXP. Also be sure to do some research on changing the oil before doing it the way you have on every other vehicle, it will save you some hassle.

Do not get that RXP. Just don't do it. If you must get a Seadoo couch, get the base model 2 seat Spark and reflash the ECU for an instant 20-30 hp bump up to the higher performance model's level. My advice would be to buy a Superjet or an SXR 800 and really have some fun. Couches are lame unless it's a B1. Going fast in a straight line on the water gets really boring, really quick.

Watched it a few years ago, I think it's a great movie.

Buyone more and you get invited to the free track day in October! Assuming they have it again this year that is. I bought four gift certs back in January when they were $25 off each one. Can't wait for some warm weather!

Speed Triple. It is simply impossible to go back to the R6 on the street after riding the triple for a short while.The track is a different story...

Damn that thing looks fast...

Project engineer for Whirlpool in Marion. BSMET from Cinci. The pay is decent, but it can be a pain in the ass sometimes as I'm pretty much on call 24/7 and occasionally get called in at 3am or so. I'm 16 hours into a shift working on a new machine startup and still have another 4 hours to go before my cover shows up. I'd rather design and fabricate cool shit all day. Probably should have just went straight into a machining/fab trade school right out of highschool and started my own fab shop. I may still open a shop up at some point in time.

No problem; Just hit me up if you need to use it again in the future.

Sorry, I've been very busy at work with a new equipment install. I just had the link sent to your email.

If anyone else wants one just post your email.

I can get you one, what is your email?

The duster; it's like a jacket, only longer, thicker, and far more badass.

There's nobody local to Ohio who does this? I don't really want to have to pay to ship my 1pc and jacket...
