  1. Wait until 11-Midnight? I may be sleeping in my truck at the gate.
  2. So I probably won't get to the track until late. How late does the gate stay open?
  3. The GP Suspension 25mm cartridges increased my front fork length by 12mm.
  4. everyone needs to do the 750. I have the most fun in that race for some reason.
  5. Glad you got them sorted. What else was wrong with your bike at Beave? I saw you pack up pretty early on Saturday.
  6. Damn that is a pricey SV. Did you get that R6 sold?
  7. Thanks Marty. I was going to say something to him this weekend about it. I think the 600cc expert racing would be closer if the classes were spread out. I know Tom runs away from everyone after the first few corners. He is a machine but it would be nice for a few others to have a chance of keeping him in sight. I am getting more and more comfortable with the close quarters of the first few corners of mayhem. I know Todd will have a hard time justifying it with the few 1000cc bikes out there. I know he split them at Putnam last year with success, but Putnam had 3-4 times the 1000cc bikes on grid.
  8. I am pretty sure you can mix and match. It doesn't have to be the same style.
  9. I hear ya guys on battling in the 600 Expert class. I wish it was closer. I would really like to see the 1000cc bikes in a different race. I know I get hung up trying to pass them since I don't like the really close passes that the faster 600cc racers feel comfortable making. I guess that is on me though.
  10. I should be there, but I may be traveling alone for the third time this year. Both days for me. Racing the usual classes
  11. I did 1:01s on a dry track in the first race of the day, 750GT. Rained at lunch did the first 600 race on a soaking wet track. The second 600 race was on a drying track, but the race line was fully dry. No one dropped below a minute at least the 600cc guys didn't. There were some 1:00s.
  12. Loved the Beave as this was my first trip there. Next time I will only go if I have a someone to ride share with. Wish Saturday was dry all day to get a bit more practice in. Sunday was fun except for riding in the first 600 race on a fully wet track on DOTs. I refuse to buy rains but I figured I would help dry out the track. I did get into the 1:01s a few times during the first race. Turn 5 I think from the 750GT Turn 10 from 600 race 2
  13. That is why I haven't signed up for racing or the track day. Don't want to make a 7 hr drive just to sit.
  14. I hope I can get there before they close. I don't think I will be able to leave work early on Friday, so it will be about 7 hours+ to get there. Which means I wouldn't get there until 10:30 or so.
  15. I SHOULD be there. I am travelling alone again, so I may wait to sign up. I will be doing Saturday and racing the 750 and both 600s. Don't run over the Beave virgin. Can you get in PIRC on Friday night? Also any amenities at the track? Electric or garages or etc....
  16. I found that with mine during the first round. Almost the exact that you are saying. I lowered the front 5mm and upped the rear 1mm. Felt better but I think I still need to change it a bit more. The GP carts are crazy stiff. I took a few turns of preload out of mine and it fixed most of my issues. I know your bike is an 07 and mine an 09 and they are very different but try 5mm front since the GP carts increase front ride height by 12mm.
  17. Yeah...it had me doing the same thing as well. I will point it up more next time.
  18. Nice on the PB. You are in the vids for more laps than I would have liked. I thought you were riding great and it felt like you were going faster than before. Definitely made it hard on my to get around you. I didn't get to see the lap times but I was told by Cox I may have got back into the 11s.
