I am so looking forward to Sunday.

I think teenagers(and almost teeenagers) better bring the whole A-game.

I fully plan to leave BG green on all their side panels !!!!!!!!!!!


Of course I suppose that could happen from them lapping me instead--- but
back to the plan.

BG green for everyone!

So are we going to run 13.5???


Sunday--- "lets Rock"

Later,
Darrald

The outdoor layout at The Track is "usually" bigger than the indoor layout for the AA.

Pitting is still "inside" in the A/C....
No tables, cords, tents needed....
In past years has 3 classes been doable? I haven't been to an AA race since 09'.

Default Spec Tires - Solaris or others

If anyone throws away their spec tires after a couple of runs, please toss them my way. I have some off road guys that are trying onroad this year. I want to get them to race two classes but they are kind of intimidated by the costs. tia.

I have a couple of sets of SWEEP tires you can have. Fairly newer, can still make out the mold seam in one set. Look me up tomorrow, see avatar <----

Same sort of thing.
Well maybe it is really the --- I want to pull off the pass Hagberg put on Volker at the last ETS.

Cornering and bump in the rear--- pushed him just wide and inside I go!!!!
It was really volkers lack of corner speed but it was a butt bump none the less.

As far as these teenagers go it is just the MMA elbow to the chops--- and then take a 5 min. break because I am out of breath!

Besides they know who I am talking about and I have about as much chance of beating them as I do of pulling off that Hagberg bump pass.

Just keeping the smack level up!!!

Later today,
Darrald

We will be starting at 11 a.m. tomorrow instead of Noon. The forecast looks good with a chance of MAYBE a T/R word in the afternoon.

With an earlier start,depending on circumstances (radar), we may drop to 2 quals and mains to get the show in and not have to run inside in the AC,(and wipe our feet on carpet :-),sorry had to:-))
