Default Got out to summit point again on Friday

It was a packed house with Nesba and everything went extremely smooth all day. Only a couple times did I ever have to pit out to get some clear space and we had 1 or 2 red flags and only 1 was a crash, the other was a mechanical issue. I ended up riding real easy the first couple sessions getting my head into it since last time I crashed hard. I never rode real hard and easily had more to give in most sections. Even with doing that I was going faster then I ever have. Overall it was a real good day. Hot as hell but real good.

They're control riders. They wear shirts/jerseys over their leathers.

.RJ - I was there yesterday watching ccs cause I had some friends racing yesterday and today. Started out bad when a friend got t-boned by a scooter going way too fast around a turn on Friday night right after my friend left tech. Bent both rearsets.... We scrambled to get something together and he had to buy some vortex ones. The guy who hit him was supposed to pay for it, dunno what happened in the end with that. Sat morning second practice 4 guys went down in the chute (for those of you not in the know this is a turn that's done at about 120mph and not much run off...) Of course it was red flagged and someone had to be air lifted out. Finally got started again and we got to see some sidecar action which btw is too ******* cool Finally got to the race and it was 2 of my friend's first time racing and the 3rd has expert plates. Went real well since it was a long 25 minute race. I got to see the bmw team in action who were crazy fast. Very cool bikes Also in the 9th race someone else had to be air lifted out... I dunno how they did today. Hopefully not as much chaos as yesterday

some mirrors are bigger then others.... we talking like sport touring mirrors or what? yeah yeah I know... I'm trying to work out a time to get back out. MAYBE end of October though it'll be interesting at Summit Point if the weather isn't cooperating. And hey, it's better then last time:
