    Nice just installed a new exhaust on the KTM and was thinking about heading up to Robs, this will save me the drive since TT is only 15 minutes up the road

    Awwww come on Gino. It won't be the same without you. Amanda still wants a Hawk real bad. Maybe you could sneak out for a quick trip down. I can get the slow race schedule for you.

    I saw her about a month ago and talked Hawk. I was looking for a Scorpion Commander yellow in Large. No dice. I did pick up the Cigarette lighter light. That thing is powerful!!!

    I think you should bring her down and win the slow race 2-up!

    (says the guy that can't make it either...next year!)

    I don't know what a Darkside tire is but I am curious. If you win then absolutely - no you cannot use it. Otherwise sure go right ahead.

    darkside means you use a car tire on the rear wheel of your bike.

    If I can make the brutal ride... almost 0.6 miles from my house to twisted throttle... I will try to make it!

    Sounds like fun and I have been waiting for a chance to meet some of that gang.

    Don't put yourself out man. With the price of gas today it might not be a responsible ride to make.
