so i was hoping to get some practice in on frirday but that didnt happen so much.. as for saturday.. i went out to first practice in d.o.t.'s it wasnt to bad but the rear was walking around on me in the wet..so i was lucky enough to have dan get me a set of rains for the rest of the weekend.. i missed 2nd practice but whatever.. the first time ever using rain tires and racing in the rain came was in race 9 lwss.. i got a great launch and was 1st into the corner.. i was batteling with another sv for a 5 laps and i got infront of him and ended up crashing in 3 out of the lead.. i wasnt to happy but i ran a 1.32 in the poring rain.. which i was very excited about!
with that confidence i took it into the races on sunday.. race 1 i did the gtl.. i was in the far back in 4d.. i got a great launch and once again got into turn 1 in 1st.. took the lead and never looked back.. this was my 1st 1st place finish.. my day wasnt done there though.. ran thunderbikes and got a great launch.. beat out some ducatis and such to get 2nd into the corner.. a 749 got me outta 2 and kept me off for the rest of the race ( that bike is very fast compared to my sv) but once again held my own and finished 3rd in the race. last race of the day was lwgp.. same situation as my other 2 races.. was in the back row.. but launched great.. got out front and kept everyone off the whole race to get my 2nd 1st place finish of the day!.. i ended that race running a low 1.29.. it was a great success weekend for the kid of zip tie alley!
im looking forward to next season to see what i can do now in the dry!!

One of the dudes that you were racing's dads came over looking for you and I talked to him for a few.
He was saying that you were one of the best rain racers that he's seen in a long time. That's really saying something!
Great job!
Nice man. I was the one chasing you for a bit in the LWGP race. That was fun![]()
Jesus man, between you and Pang, you're making this racing stuff look easy. Nice job.
