I enjoyed meeting you guys. It was a hot weekend but cooled off Saturday for the races thank goodness. Sunday heated back up. My boy b9009b is a monster in the pit. He was helping everyone he possibly could. Great all around dude and quite entertaining. We were talking about how everybody that races or track rides has a bit of a loose screw. But that riders are generally good people and glad to help out. b9009b takes to a whole nother level...lol. It was a good weekend and look forward to hanging out with you guys again.

It was finally nice to meet the dude I was buying all of my parts from (zohsix). We even raced against each other. Icing on the cake!

Take care gents

Will you be coming to Barber? It was a pleasure to hang out and tear up some rubber.
 
Leon, there must be a glitch with your app (mph) I know last year you were reaching high 170's on the back stretch now it is peaking out at 152,.......that's not correct!
 
Hey man, just wanted to say thank you again for all of your help with my lines -- it really made a huge difference and helped me drop from the 1:43's on Friday practice to running 1:38's on Sunday to take home the win in the HWT Sb national race. I think if I spend another couple of days there and iron out all of the little issues with the bike (and grow bigger balls) I can drop into the 36's. I really appreciate everything this past weekend, glad to bring home a bunch of hardware in the HWT class and A Sb.

A big thanks to b9009b and zohsix too -- you guys went above and beyond -- I totally thought my weekend was over on Saturday after the A Sb race. I can't say thank you enough.

Good to meet you tack514 and Phil, nice to put some names and faces together...looking forward to the next race.

No, last year I was seeing --- and now I'm still seeing ---. Go check the A Superbike video, the first lap. I was having trouble with the wind and my left leg. I was hard for me to lift my leg and down shift. I almost pulled in, painful. I had the same issue happen last year at Road ATL. Not sure what the problem is.

Anytime man. It's all about seat time and balls for road ATL. It's a fast track. I figured out my shifting issues. The bolt backed out on the shift arm again. On one of the videos, on the front straight I popped out of gear. Took the bike to Yaman and he noticed it. We will use some red locktite this go round and hopefully that will solve the issue. Good luck with the region and bring that title home.
 
Leon it was good to meet you and the other guys. Great weather and racing. Aside from the arm pump, it was a good weekend.

Really looking forward to Barber. ATL has never been a good track for me. I love it, but have always struggled there (relative to other tracks). I go alot better at Barber, so I'll be glad to get there. :)

It was good to finally met you as well. If you have never met Chris of seen his setup, its top notch. He is cool as well. I found out my fork seal on the right was blown and my shifter is done. So, I hoping everything gets fixed ASAP. I hope we have similar size grids at Barber. It sucs start all the way in the back though.
 
Thanks Leon :)

Barber should be good grids also. That is always a popular track. They might not be quite as big as Cycle Jam because not as many regions are covered, but they will be good.

Since you earned some points, your grid spot should be a lil better. But if not, you can just make up for by riding like an ....... in T1-T3. :D That is what I have to do because I suck so bad at launching. Haha.

Thanks again for your guys' help over the weekend.
