    New Amateur

    After some talk w/peers and the guys on my team... and the fact that my pb lap time was .3 sec. from the nov. to am. threshold set forth in the rulebook... I decided to shoot Don an email and ask to bump. Got the OK today, so looks like I'll be rockin' the yellow plates for the upcoming weekend Should be fun taking it to the next level!

    I am not a racer but I would imagine running in a faster class would help you go faster. Maybe you'll see your times improve just from making the bump?

    well I would assume Mike Langlitz and Mike Arbo probably should be bumped as well. I'd have to check if there are any others. Roger Ealy too, I think he was right around those times.
