Atta boy pete, I have to find a grill that is Oreo Proof for this year...ha ha Brian , ya just kind of collecting parts right now. Im def jones'in to get working on it, im excited to see what smutty can come up with for a race bike. Thinking about gettign eric to take penguin and try and sell your gear for you. also brandy thought it would be cool to take penguin, hmmmm......Do I smell a EX500

Don't go selling all my gear. Gloves and boots aren't going anywhere. Im gong to need those in the not too distant future.

I am ready to go all I need to do is have some nuts on the subframe welded back on. They just spin and you can't get the bold out.

Change oil, lube chain, gas her up, ride.

I don't know about racing I still have no job and haven't had a single interview or call back in 2 months and about 30 resumes going out. Good news is I just got word that if I need it after my 26 weeks are up I can apply for another 20 weeks. I don't want to but it's nice to know if I need it it's there and I won't have to live at the salvation army.

Finally sent in my license renewal today.

87, 82 or 187? What'll it be???? Guess we'll find out when I get it in the mail.

[KB]

Thanks for reminding me. I don't think 889 is in big demand!

[OreoGaborio]

Ya never know. I went to 187 when I lost 182 cuz someone else took it a few years back. I'd get it in today if ya can.

Who's ready? Who's not? Goals? http://www.timeanddate.com/counters/...in=&sec=&p0=68

You should add 8 hours to your counter because 1st practice starts at 8 am not midnight.

I am ready also.

My wish is to stand like this all morning and afternoon, every weekend and not have to pick up any of you nutbags or your bikes .

91 days... exactly what I need for a start to a proper race bike is on the WERA forum for $400 in NY and I can't have it...

I hate you all.

Oh God, are you guys really gonna do this to yourselves? Setting a goal of winning the rookie race is like asking all your internet friends to come see you crash in T3.

I could beat Jorge Lorenzo in the rookie race...

honestly I don't care if I "win" it. I certainly know I won't cry if I do or don't win. but BrianC will have to do better than 23s (although I bet I'll need the first few corners to catch up cause I know I won't get off the line with any kind of speed)
my real goals are to have fun and bump to AM as quick as I can and hopefully get under 1:20 by the end of the year.

I can do 23's in the rain w/slicks, no tire warmers...
I'm gonna cry, then quit riding motorcycles all together if I don't win!

Seriously though... I left out that keeping myself and bike in one piece is my ultimate goal. But I would like to get out of the Novice class asap also. Winning the rookie race is a decent goal for a beginner I think, but after posting on this forum a couple of times and seeing the responses, I'm wondering if that goal will be considered pure arrogance, and totally unrealistic, because, let's face it... people who are new to roadracing can't even make it around the track.

Remember also that you could be up against people who have been doing track days for years (there was one a few years ago who was doing 18s in the rookie race) or someone who used to race but took a few years off and now has to start over (increasingly likely if the economy turns around and people have money again). And the reality is, the rookie race shouldn't be looked at as a race at all; the point is to get through 3 laps without screwing up procedure or crashing so you get your license.
