Thanks guys for the congrats... This weekend was an amazing experience to say the least. The guys pitted near me down at T1 were some of the best people I've met in a long time... THANK YOU for all the advice and support.
as far as the racing and lap times... It feels great to have 2 podiums on my 1st weekend, but I know there is alot of work to be done. The good thing is that I know where I can lose alot of time off my laps and I'll be working at that next time up. I got alot of good info from people this weekend and I'm just going thru it in my head now, but I feel great and now that I'm a real club racer there won't be the usual trash talk from me unless you deserve it!
Doc buddy, my best lap time was a 1:26.7 or something in the MWSB race today, but keep in mind dude that this was my very 1st time on a dry track ever. I know where I need to improve and I will over time, cut me a little slack will ya?
I'll do a full race report if anyone is interested, because both races were actually pretty good, especially today's where cbr929 earned the win in the final corner out onto the straight.

If he got you on the last corner that's not stealing the win, that's earning it at the last second.
Glad to hear all went well for everyone involved.
Rock solid start Brian, congrats!!

Close your eyes, look deep in your soul, step outside yourself and let your mind go.
I only had a couple short conversations with him after our last race but he's a good guy and it was fun racing with him.
well in that race I just rode like absolute crap. between the cold, going down the day before, the new tires and the new suspension set up I had a lot to work on.
it took me time to get going Saturday cause I SUUUUUUUUUUUCK balls off the line. if the guy behind me had a horn he would have beeped at me to go.
we figured it must have just been either a small leak out of the cap or I think more likely some fuel came out of the overflow and that's what caught on fire. they threw the red just as I was going into 10 so I saw the flames.
really man you looked good out there for having basically just started riding on a track. you're cutting time quickly.
that last race was FUN.

oh yeah, do a report. did you even know I was there before I came up next to you on the straight? I can't remember if I ever showed you a wheel or not.

Anytime, I'm happy I got a chance to help you out!
Yes she did thanks to that little pink zip tie... You guys saved my ass big this weekend and I'll never forget it!
I thought I heard your exhaust a couple times but I tried not to let it phase me, however that pass taught me a few valuable lessons. I thought I just got tired and didn't push hard enough, but that last lap was our fastest lap. It was a very fun race and I'm looking forward to racing w/you again.
