    I envy the feeling of the butterflies you guys are likely experiencing.

    Cool story bro, but I call bullshit on your cereal preference.

    Things are great bud. Hope all is well with you also. You may see me at some dirty events next year if things go as planned, it'd be cool to catch up. </threadjack>

    I never thought it would happen! Congratulations, enjoy the terror. I guess now you're ever so slightly justified in posting opinions in most every race thread...

    He even failed tech. Despite knowing the rulebook by heart.
    Well, failed-ish.

    Seriously though. I had a fucking ball just being there watching these cats Friday and today. Both did it right, big time.

    Sorry about the fugly track day geek in the middle. But you get the point.

    Chip- I think your misspelled informed... I think it is spelled "s" "l" "o" "w" "e" "s" "t".

    I have a tendency to want to know everything about a subject before doing it. I don't know everything, but have gotten past my CDO required knowledge level.

    Failed is such a harsh word .

    When the rules require something that you can't buy or build (at least as far as I can tell, and I don't completely suck at research), then i don't know how to meet the rule.

    After hearing on Friday how I had no chance of of racing, I absolutely have to say thank you to Michael and Adam for helping talk me through this Friday night. I had completely given up and wasn't even sure if I should try.

    I have no plans of ever being fast. I'm riding an old middle weight. I may never get out of novice. It's still effing fun.

    Ok, 173 and 405, I'll look for y'all on the grids. I'm in races 6 and 9, #910. Did both practices this morning, didn't really notice any numbers though....kind of sleepy.

    Swing by 10N and say hey. I'll be the big fella with the magnificent red beard.
