ATTENTION IN THE HADDOCK! - Endurance Race!

[csmutty]

Mine are the ones that stick. They're Motion Pro.

Yep...I think I have yours.

Do we actually have pits setup on cold pit, NASCAR-style? i.e. would an EZ-UP be useful...or do we just have to go back to the garages to swap riders, get gas, etc?

Yes. Bring an EZ-up or 2. The pit is set up on cold pit.

When the USCRA asks you to wire the throttle cable, what they want is a couple loops around the cable behind the ferrule where it goes into the throttle, then wire it to a spot on the bars/throttle/etc so it pulls the cable into the housing. The idea is to provide something to help prevent the cable from backing out and causing a stuck throttle situation. If you have a cable with an inline adjuster, loop a couple times around one end of the adjuster, twist, then loop a couple times around the other end with the same goal, keeping the cable snug in the adjuster.

will you be shaking your head for 3 hours from the tower or will you be getting some sun with us?

From the tower. Johnny B and maybe Cindy herding cats on pit lane. Figure a lot of head shaking and swearing in the tower. 3hrs. of deviant filed fun await us! This,,,,should be a rather interesting event. For some reason, picturing quite a few drinks as a necessity at the end of the day.

The only restriction is if the handlebars touch the ground. I like that. Gino, we need a batch of really long frame sliders ASAP. Bill, you'll probably be all set. It doesn't seem to apply if your bike catches on fire.

If you did look like her, the being a dude part might not matter that much...

It's a family event, she/he just has to look pretty and won't be allowed to do anything that would spoil the illusion.

I need to meet you this weekend sir; you always have such a knack for making people see the light.

Easy. Since we'll be using the Center Garage area only, (No North Garages.) Tech will be located in the closest garage to the pit lane, where you normally find Pirelli.
Garages are first come, first served. The contract is for the first building, but we always seem to get to use the second building, too. Garages are free. Camping without hookup is free, too, compliments of The Great Coy.

Sounds like Vintage racing is cheaper!!

For the sprints and the beginning of the endurance race, I will be running pre grid and hot grid, so you'll see me at Start/Finish. During the endurance race, I will be running the Isle of Man style stop box right about where you're used to seeing me during LRRS, in front of the Scales Garage.
You will come to a stop, put your foot down and then I'll wave you on to your pit. You must stay in first gear from the stop box until the spot I mark down on pit lane. Depending on how much room is taken on pit lane. I will place some cones after the last team's pit area or just past the Starter's bunker, whichever is furthest down. After you clear these cones you can upshift from 1st and wick it up as fast as you like.
Don't for get the pot luck supper after Saturday's racing, get to know the people in my alternate racing world.

USCRA Pre-Race Tech Inspection Form
_Catch pan construction
and mounting
(min. depth of 1”;
absorbent pad in place)

No exceptions. Tin one use basting pans from Wally World will get you laughed out of Tech by Zeke, who maintained the Penguin School EXs before Dana.

Proposal 5: Please allow me to run a turbo kit on my sidecar, but only me – Marcus #98
Resolution: This proposal was not passed. No rule change will be instituted.

Nice try, Marcus!
