    BBQ grease and the track

    The NASCAR folks decided to drop all their left over BBQ grease on the track between turn 3 through 8.

    thanks guys.

    If anyone got a picture of turn 6 today post it up.....pretty shitty.

    That's right, back to a 2 cylinder, 3 cylinder, and a 4 cylinder.

    Yes, your bike is safe. It does okay on bacon grease.

    BTW - you know that quote in your sig line where I said "felt comfortable on your bike everywhere except the corners?"

    Well I figured out the problem.......I was running 50 front and 55 rear for tire pressure. I don't know how the fuck I completed a race with those tires. I'm a racing retard. No wonder I felt so uncomfortable. I lowered the tire pressure this morning and it was like a new bike.

    I guess that is another lesson - when working quickly to put on new tires and get out for a race don't forget to check the little things like tire pressure!


    BTW - someone buy hammerdown's bike. It is great if you run 31/29 psi hot for tire pressure. It has to be a great bike if you can do 1:30 on over inflated tires.

    maybe a sig update..."50/55 is not an appropriate tire pressure for racing."

    does that mean I can sue NASCAR next race weekend if I crash?

    No shit, oil/grease spots/runs everywhere on track. SMBD should sue NASCAR and share the money with me

    Happens every year. Makes for an interesting track surface.

    EVERY year!

    They let the RVs park on the t5-t9 hill and when they leave the rigs leak shitter juice on the racing surface.

    FUCK-YUCK!
