Moto-Brian Posted April 3, 2012 Report Share Posted April 3, 2012 But on the topic of tires, are there any other place to get 211's at for a good price?The deal is that they are a spec tire and will not nor can they be sold at any lower a price. The upside is that no matter how good or fast you are, you pay the same whether your last name is Hayden or Stone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moto-Brian Posted April 3, 2012 Report Share Posted April 3, 2012 I didn't know Wrobel was a member here!?!?His gayness is not... Plus, he and his sidekick Neyra smoked me by doing low 58s and high 57s... Turds... But, this year, I will have at least a little more seat time there... I don't know what I turned exactly, but for the first time racing there, it didn't turn out too badly... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

owndjoo Posted April 3, 2012 Report Share Posted April 3, 2012 Haha my first race ever was at beaver. 1:06 on the SV put it on the box. The biggest place to make time there is the back section with the two kinks. You can go through them WFO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moto-Brian Posted April 3, 2012 Report Share Posted April 3, 2012 Lol that was a novice race. The experts were in the 1:01-02 range. I got a tad bit quicker after that It must be slower than before as those were expert times now from both WERA and MS... I know it was bumpy as SHIT through the kink... Also could be that they don't race there much anymore.1:01 on a SV would be SICK!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redkow97 Posted April 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2012 The times in this thread makes me want to quit lolDon't sweat it. Race yourself and no one else. I remember pushing my hardest (granted, on my F2) to turn 1:10's at the beave. Now I do 1:07's on my warmup lap... Seat time and keep having fun.

I grew up racing mx and took to the road stuff pretty quickly. No matter how fast you are, there's another guy ahead of you to chase. Just keep working at it and learning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r1crusher Posted April 4, 2012 Report Share Posted April 4, 2012 Drew, you better get a damn bike fast. I think we should have a contest on who's the better teacher. The old man Brian with his pupal Craig and I will take you as my new master, Drew. I'm giving Craig the advantage here so I don't want to hear any whining from either of them when they lose.The goals: For me I want to get into the A group by the end of the year. For Craig he has to podium....let's be nice and say at least 3 times given the competition this season.We can figure out the wager when we all get together.

owndjoo Posted April 4, 2012 Report Share Posted April 4, 2012 Lol, gotta admit, Brian taught me a ton. I have a lot of respect for that guy. But I'm always up for helping another rider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moto-Brian Posted April 4, 2012 Report Share Posted April 4, 2012 Craig's always a winner in everyone's eyes. So, he's got you beat already. Nah, in regards to the wanna quit and knowing they were joking, just as Drew stated - there is ALWAYS someone faster. The key to all of this is learning and the willingness to learn more. The thing cool about Drew when he was around in this at a serious level was that he was a sponge. I cannot say that about some of the young pups. The fact is that if you think you are fast and better than everyone around you, you've already lost. It may not be today or even tomorrow, but there is someone faster and unless you are Casey Stoner, you aren't the best ever.Everyone learns all the time. You guys hear me state that so many times. But, even the all mighty Valentino Rossi learns and I would say there isn't too many people that can say they are at least as good as he is. If he is still learning at this stage, I can too. Seat time, asking questions, learning, riding. Check the ego and have fun, but realize that how serious you take it, it gets harder and harder. If it was easy, everyone would be fast and do great things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue03636 Posted April 4, 2012 Report Share Posted April 4, 2012 I really need to take some time for myself this year.If it all works out jinu and I were looking to do one of the big schools this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r1crusher Posted April 4, 2012 Report Share Posted April 4, 2012 I sincerely hope that you guys understand I'm just messing. But I (and RVT for that matter) are going to be seriously looking to take full advantage of the mentoring program with the hopes that we can join you bastards on some grids in the very near future. I don't expect that I'll be able to run 2-3's at Beaver with my limited seat time but I'd like to get in the 6-8's so I'm not an embarrassment out there. I'm not entirely sure what to expect of Nelsons and I know I have a loooooong way to go at Mid-O.I/We need as much help as we can get and well......I'm going to be up most of your guy's asses and buggin' the shit out of you for tows, leap frogs, whatever we can do. For the record, this mean Brian, Craig, Jinu, Brandon, Andy, Drew (if the pussy gets a bike ), etc.Steve and I want to get into the A group by the end of this season if not sooner and I honestly think that if we can accomplish that then we should be worthy of gridding up with you guys.

blue03636 Posted April 4, 2012 Report Share Posted April 4, 2012 Just don't do like I did for a few years and just go out and ride. Work on something every time out.I'm kicking myself for that cuz Jinu ended up getting faster than me.I haven't seen Steve lately but you are close to A as it is, shouldn't be a big jump for you.

SJC1000rr Posted April 4, 2012 Report Share Posted April 4, 2012 I think its definitely possible for you guys to get into advanced by mid year. All of those guys can help you and work on problems your having. While speed is great, you also need to be consistent and "see" the lines and be predictable. Find your turn/braking marking points on track and slowly work speed into the equation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue03636 Posted April 4, 2012 Report Share Posted April 4, 2012 Just when you get to the corner say to yourself "I got this" and just go balls out into it. Works every time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
