It was a good round 5 for me, but I never thought I get the bump...

[RocketPunch]

Update: Sorry about the thread, as later suspected the yellow plate graphic was due the registration system update error. Sorry about the confusion.

-----------------------------------

....I always thought when the rule book said 1:26, it meant you need to be under 1:26 to get the bump.

Kind of happy and stressed out at the same time. Been accepting the fact that I will probably never get out of novice, may be my ancient tires have something to do with it or I just never got enough seat time. May be the new tires I got this round (thanks Mike) had a lot to do with it.

Thanks to TTD for getting me into trackdays, thanks to Penguin for the class, thanks Oreo for putting up with my pm harassment even before I got my bike and definitely thanks for all the advice I got from this forum.

Now I feel really bad not able to make it to round 6....

[sprinkler_1]

[Kurlon]

So wait, does your number actually show as black on a yellow background in my.nhms.com?

[carsick]

Hey, good job! Sorry we won't see you in September, must be you're saving the best for last? I think you were set up just over from me along the front straight, next time I'll have to stop by and say Hi, never seems to be enough time!

[tsorfas]

Congrats dude

Yeah.

[Kurlon]

Yeah.

Hrmmm... mine's showing a white background... I didn't request a bump, I don't believe I qualify for a bump...

[OreoGaborio]

Hrmmm... mine's showing a white background... I didn't request a bump, I don't believe I qualify for a bump...

22.7? Hm.... it wouldn't surprise me.

[Kurlon]

22.7? Hm.... it wouldn't surprise me.

In that case, why hasn't Mr Linn gotten bumped?

[OreoGaborio]

don't ask me

[Kurlon]

don't ask me

But I AM asking you. This is the internets, this is serious business! Why are you holding out on me?! WHY?!

[k_cotter]

Eeerm, mine has a white background as well... Defaq?

[Trouble]

It's black on white but still says AM below my number. It's been that way all year.

[Kurlon]

Sweet, we're ALL experts now, save for a few of you who will keep the Novice and Am ranks going as lifeless husks. Goodbye podiums, hello scary T1 meatgrinders in every class!

Edit: Mine doesn't say AM below my number.

same here. I thought everyone's got changed over the winter to just white with black numbers.

ain't no way they'd put me in EX. I can barely manage to hit a 19. and they don't autobump anyone to expert midseason.

[union]

The scary starts are the novice ones...lol.

ya but how fucking awesome is it to see 30 bikes in one wave. The novice class this year is awesome. I wish it were the same when I came through.

Hmm, mine had the AM below last week but with the site update it's not on there any more. I stand corrected.

Now we just need some bodies to turn up and we'll have the makings of a proper murder mystery.

Hold on, can this be right? http://ducatiracerchick.blogspot.com/

Personally I would not be surprised the "yellow" plate shown on mine had nothing to do with bumping, it is very possible that it is just how it is shown after the system update or something. What you show kind of confirmed that.
