Spent Friday helping Miles at Street & Comp. Then had a good Friday night with helping Laureen get ready for her RR. Not a single broken drill bit and she went right through tech.
Saturday: Practice was okay. Then in LWGP I was leading after a hole shot. The eventual winner then flew by me. I was running a second then diced with 107 a lap or two. He got by me in lap 3. While following him I tested the brakes on him in the bowl and T1 and my plan was that I would catch and pass him in the bowl with the brakes on the last lap. Then I watched 107 hand me second sliding out in T12 on lap 7. Went by the white flag and backed off to cruise to a second place.
Sunday: Practice was better. GTU. More holeshot. With a long wheelie. But Stu beat me to T1 and really disappeared fast. Then a couple more passed me and then a red flag. Restart with a good holeshot propelled me into the middle of the GTO. But so was 2 others from my class in front of me. (Stu stalled on the grid.) So a pack of about six bikes were running in front with me sixth. Every lap they outmotored me down the straight. I would not touch the brakes till the 2 board then gain some more back in the bowl then by T12 I would be a bike length back only to get out motored again. Realizing I am never gonna get around these high HP bikes I just backed off and took a third while setting a PB.
Summary: I am rather dissapointed with my racing this year. Early in the year I pulled some bad moves. Started off awesome with a win then all downhill from there. I need to do the 2 day school. I am in a "can't figure out how to get fast" rut.
