This weekend in a nutshell. Well, i was late both days so i didnt practice or qualify so i had to go straight to racing . so i was in the back of the grid. Saturday race one i sucked because i didnt have any track time to knock off the rust and i was all over the place and i had new tires that wasnt scrubbed in. Got 15th. Race 2 saturday was better! i battled it out with 3 guys for 10th and got 12th. Sunday was much better and i stepped my game up and hauled some ass. Had a fun battle for 6th with 3 other guys. Took 6th! Race 2, i had fun battle for 6th again with the same guys and made some awesome passes and even rubbed elbows but made a big mistake on the last lap and i got 8th.
the grids were huge! 20+ on the expert and 20+ on am. so about 50 on the grid! Thanks Pirelli, run gp, and everyone that helped me out this weekend!

i definitely need to work on the bike some suspension wise to drop a few more seconds. i got down to the .56s. that and i need a good tune and put on my quickshifter. i cant wait till the next round!

We really wanted to go out there and watch at least the first round, but it interfered with the first Inde weekend of the year. Hopefully we'll be out to see the races at least once this year.

I was racing a borrowed SV-650 all weekend.. i had a lot of fun out there for sure.. ended up with 1:59.6 as my fastest lap of the weekend. Not bad for a bike I'd never ridden before that weekend. I also didn't practice on it.
