I was hoping that I'd learned how to ride the damn thing from those wet races last race weekend when I dropped my best wet lap to a 1:30.9.. so this was the test.
Friday practice best: 1:28.3 new personal best (previous best was 1:29.0)
Saturday race 11: 1st/2(lol), but more importantly for me, best: 1:25.8, and consistent 1:26.xx laps the entire race. New personal best.
Sunday race 1: 4th/17. times were a bit less consistent because I suck in traffic, but I managed another pair of 26s. Crashes ended the race early. I'd like to see what I could have done with the full distance. 35 bikes on grid between all classes.
Sunday race 6: 2nd/15. 43 bikes on the grid between HWSB and LWGP! again, not super consistent, but I'm workin on it. to my very pleasant surprise, a pair of 1:24.6s with a 1:25.1 thrown in. New personal best.
All this improvement, and not a single solitary self-induced pucker moment. I am still smiling. I havent figured out my index yet, but I do have 6 completed races, and 6 trophies! I am just loving this stuff.![]()

Oxx, I didnt actually see you any time aside from when you cooked past me at the green flag. I must have just learned a bit from following you in the wet last weekend. I just looked at the total time, you were about 18 seconds ahead... ahh well! I will say that racing in THAT much traffic is, umm, interesting. Damn off season. bleh.

Thanks man! Its mostly the bike. It has been easy to ride, as long as I keep it in the power. Its like I'm not pushing it, I'm holding it back. The less I hold it back, the faster it goes, like magic. hehe
