    White plates and new bike colors for sure.
    Nice job this year. You should be a contender next year with white plates.

    Congrats! In one way I wish you were still running the Hawk so we could play. On the other hand I'm really glad you're not because I'm worried I couldn't keep up with you any more.

    I dont think there are enough of those to make a difference. Havent seen much of that actually, maybe here or there but over I think it would create much closer racing. Most guys doing 19's most of the time cant throw down many 16's.

    If you do constant 16s in one class and 19s on the other ones

    1) you are a total idiot
    2) you are a total idiot who races for the wrong reasons.
    3) easy to track and get an average per class instead of all year.

    Tell that to Jesus. Make sure you tell him in Spanish, or he'll pull the language barrier and pack up his MW bike with the 750 motor and take YOUR tools before getting kicked out of NHMS for a 3rd or 4th season.

    Re: No more auto bump AM - EX

    As Graham noted, there is a plan in the works that will address the riders who need to bump to expert. It will be lap time based, and there will be a concrete measure of consistency in there as well. We don't want to bump those who are not ready to bump (which is why we threw out the points-based advancement). In fact, some riders may never get to Expert, and that's OK. MX has worked well under this system for many years. However, for example, if you show over "x" number of races in one season that you can do the times you will be bumped....at minimum at the start of the next season.

    should've seen him in action this year. pulled 17's in one race, then 22's the next race on the same bike. Or he'd pit in once he realized he wasnt get contingency. why? no hablar english senor.

    Well if you really want to talk times, Cody did faster times than I did and I definitely think he should take advantage of staying amateur for one more year

    I can fix the language barrier with Jesus if we need to lol

    Infield is paved now, biotch! Get off my lawn!

    Honestly, I'm admittedly selfish. It only bothers me when it directly affects me, like in this case, when he parked where Butler had been camping, and hosting the Center garage BBQ, all season long. As luck(?) would have it, it rained in October so we had the party in the garages, but...

    i parked along the fence that separates the garage parking from the infield. out of the way and not in garage user spots.
    doesnt matter since i dont race anymore, but if i ever do again im just gonna park in the RSP garage. Noel will have quit by then so there will be an open spot

    OH, the douche that took the spot that Adam's been inhabiting for two years is someone that no one likes because he's a pretentious, prissy douche? Awesome. Why didn't we pee on his camper in the night then?
