Oreo's race report

[OreoGaborio]

Alex Dunstan picked me up two hours ago at 6am... An hour into the trip I got a call from Darrell... verrified w/ HBerry.... turned around... got Dunkin Donuts... I got a Boston Creme and Chocolate Milk.... Girl behind the counter cut herself....... "On Purpose?"... no answer... came home... goin back to bed. The End.



Dunstan's good peeps.

What does that mean? No racing today?

[bentbryan]

Yeah, what's up?! You could at least fill the rest of us in, ya-know!

I bet most of the track is under-water by now...

[OreoGaborio]

yup, no racing today... I guess they're kickin everyone out cuz the track's flooded again. Almost as bad as last time. I was told that water's shootin up outta the ground by the Penguin garage again.

I'm sure the guys that are up there will have more to say about it when they get back.

[bentbryan]

Someone must have jet ski's?!!!

Yeah, I was concerned on my way up from manchester when I saw so many people on their way back. Went in and was told that everyonne's evacuating......GREAT! Glad I was pitted in 1a instead of the garages like last time. The place is damn flooded. Tunnels and all, we had to go around the track to the turn 10 gate to get in. Not the best of circumstances, but meeting svracer and finding out who hardcore, hberry and some others (sorry I forgot names)are was cool. THANKS FOR THE HELP! See ya next time!

This explains alot I think. Took this on the way out.

It's pretty sad that this place keeps flooding like that...especially on a event weekend. This makes what, 3 times of a major flood of the infield?
It happened once during a nascrap weekend as well when there were heavy rains and the same dam broke as the one last fall... makes you think twice about camping in the infield

[SVRACER01]

yeah.. i woke up at 6 am to "mumble mumble evacuate mumble infeild mumble water mumble" over the PA. about 6 times so i got up to see what was going on and we were surrounded by a lake. water in the tunnel had risen about a foot since last night and picinic tables and trash cans were slowly disappearing. a nice 3 foot plume of water was shooting out of the ground in front of the penguin garage and Kates said water was ankle deep in his garage. lots of overflowed rivers on the way home. i even saw a front end loader up to the windows in water in some guys yard.

next race weekend will be a big one if they plan on making up these races then

It was shitty indeed. The real killer is that I saw some blue sky poking through and thought today might be my day, but alas, no.

The thing I like best about this club is that everyone pitched in to help clear out today. My truck wouldn't start, so I appreciate everyone that gave room for the wrecker to pull me and my trailer out today (just added insult to injury). Before that, though, the teamwork in everyone getting everyone else loaded up was AWESOME.

I am so pissed that the Classic will be my last weekend with you guys. Much props again to the guys pitted around me in the trackside end (small numbers) of the Center garage (Broad Squad, Deb, Pete, Lorenzo, Kelly, Al, Alex, John, Bob, Dickie, Zack, Adam, Kim, Ralph, Garrett, etc.) You guys are the best.

I will miss you all, rookie though I may be, when I move down to the VIR area. BUT, running at VIR does offer some consolation...

[Montee73]

Yea, It sucked!!!!

I finished the school and my required raced and got the H&ll out of dodge...

The track was a wash.. The camp area had about 2in and mush..

It was fun though!!

[Dave B]

You did the rookie race? I was out at Turn 3 cheering for you. Great job! Crappy weather but you guys rocked.

[Montee73]

Thanks!!!

I think I set that record for the slowest rookie race lap time!!! I was not going to have to do that race again!!!

During a practice when the rain moved in I went down in turn 11, wow it happened quick!!!!!!!!!!!!! Bike was fine, just my pride!!

I guess I expected to much out of DOT'z !!

The Track bike will be ready for the next weekend!!!

[a13x]

Heh. Yes, Pete and I had a nice little Sunday drive...


I called Pete at 11pm on Saturday night and he's like "What are you still doing up?" and I think to myself "Shit.. he still plans on racing.. fook!!!" so I say "Oh nothing... see ya at 5:45am..."

[OreoGaborio]

That's cuz I hadn't seen the latest forecast & thought you were still plannin on riding I felt bad when u told me u weren't. Yer a trooper, though dude, thanks again. Had the races not been canceled I woulda tried my best for a top 3 finish just for you to make up for it

[a13x]

hah. No worries.

I ride a Honda Hawk, not a Honda Duck, no rain for this bird.
