    To race at all. Funds not looking good at this point.

    Sucks because the am LW class will look a lot different this season.

    ...things could improve

    1) Full LRRS season, I want 21s again on the FZR so I know I'm back up to speed.
    2) Two stroke, oil spewing, rage inducing MOTAHHHHHHHHHHHHHD!
    3) Travel outside of NHMS for a race, current plan is Guyana in Nov.

    1) Dont crash
    2) Finish every race
    3) dip into 17's maybe 16's (Went from 22.4 pb to 18.2 pb last season, so who knows?)

    some people choose to only compete in the CCS Northeast region. I chose a different region & (to me) it's more fun to travel to other tracks. that's what racing is to me.
    imagine if MotoAmerica, WSB, or MotoGP were always at the same track....it sucks

    1. Do a full LRRS season
    2. Target 3 races a weekend
    3. Meet some cool people (easy)
    4. Crash less / don't get fucked up / control Royrage
    5. Don't fuck up the bike
    6. 5 seconds faster
    (some of these goals may be lofty)

    I improved 7 seconds across my distinguished 7 round LRRS racing career. If you set the bar low enough, improvements look epic.

    Do 27s at Loudon (I know it seems slow to you guys, but try it on a old motorcycle with drum brakes!)
    Travel to Mosport because the Canadians are so much damn fun and that track is awesome!
