Count Down Untill 2013 Season Kicks Off!

[Jim]

so they should take all 1:15 lap MW/HW riders out of practice group 2 and put them in group 9.
probably could get away with combinging groups 1 and 2 by that logic.
i think 1:16 - 1:23 lap times arent that bad if we were all practicing together.

[timmyho414]

I think they have combined the first two groups of the first of practice. Second practice is as it was.

We practice on Friday together so I don't really have an issue with it. That plus when is cold I blow off first practice anyway.

I always see your crazy ass you go out for first when its too cold. NO THANK YOU!

[Jim]

36 degrees in saturday's practice #1 with preferated leathers

[PainfullySlow]

So much left to do:
Complete frame swap on GSXR
some fairing repair and repaint
plugs, oil, coolant flush, all filters
rejet the SV and get to the dyno
Get my wheels sorted for the SV (some custom fab work needed)
prep the trailer (cleaning, flushing water system)
if possible, build backup superbike motor for SV


and I have exactly 14 days spent back in CT between now and the start of the season to get it all done :/

I would like to see it a little harder to EARN the duobble digits , personally just saying It would mean more to me if it were harder to get like it used to be

i think making it to EX is earning it, especially if youve done a full season as an expert. numbers 2-9 are reserved for previous champs. lets be realistic, theres probably about that many people that race up there that win EX championships. that leaves 89 two digit number available for EX racers. theres probably less then that racing in EX.
its just a number, why treat it like royalty?

The reward for making it to EX is white plates. Double digits is the next tier of reward for winning a championship, singles are reserved for multi-time champs. If were all going to get rewards for participating lets just call it a track day.

I think its actually white/black plates for expert, 2 digits for previous expert points and single digit I think is for past overall champion.

[Mr. Kurtz]

Brett is (partially)correct about how it actually is, but I think Kurlon is stating how he thinks it should be.

[SVRACER01]

.. Double digits is the next tier of reward for winning a championship,...

then there wouldnt be many two digit numbers out there since all the class championships are monopolized by about a dozen riders.

[csmutty]

I think that's the point.

[SVRACER01]

three digits should be required for AM and NV. once you get to EX and complete a season then two digits should be your option

I think you should have to podium in a championship to get a 2 digit.

[Jim]

any other CCS region has 2 digit numbers for NV/AM. only the North East forces NV/AM to use 3 digit numbers.

[csmutty]

Yeah I saw an am in daytona with a 2 digit. I asked him who he blew to be able to do that. Then he proceeded to look at me funny.

[CBR929RE]

there were 1 or 2 at the Classic last year with double digits

[Jim]

i'd rather just have a symbol, instead of any numbers. i'm that cool

[Mr. Kurtz]

I think I should get the #1 plate, because I said so that's why.

Luckily, I don't make the rules.

[Jim]

I'd give Kurtz the middle finger plate, which is kinda like a 1

[SVRACER01]

in that case i want a shocker sticker and ill be #3

[Mr. Kurtz]

Wait, if these are options, I'm taking the minivan.

You mean a symbol like a rainbow flag?

Or the equality symbol?
