lol, yea i only have to scrub a half second or better off to do 19s with you! i dont think our timing with iphones and gloves worked too good there a few times. stupid transponder.... i think things went pretty good overall. well beside the crashes, that weren't my fault btw. i was doing my taxes in turn 3 when i fell, i was doing laundry when i fell in T 1 and skidded out into the mud , I KNOW RIGHT?!! I had fresh laundry in my hands?? LAME?!, i think i was checking my netflix cue in turn 4 when i went down, and i think the last one i went to go get a latte in the middle of going down the strait, and just stepped off. brb derbi! victor just shook his head..... ha! we did get some valuable seat time during our little test, we will get it a little closer for next time, the motors gonna get a tear down and inspection, Victor is gonna adjust the variator nobule thingy, turn the sphincter valve out a half turn out, take the brakes off and prep the tires in a bath of Vaseline. I hate my diet... now that i know we got a powerful motor i am gonna go eat 8 cupcakes!!! but yea that was fun! pretty windy and cold in the morning but the late morning and after noon was great! would of been funner if i didnt get the speeding ticket on the way up. :{ oxox

Good times yesterday lads! Those supermotards mean business down there. So I ended up making the last minute decision to go to PGP’s final Winter Series race yesterday. Two half hour practices with at least 10 laps each, plus three race sessions, each having two back-to-back 5 lap races. I figure over 50 laps and over 35 miles of riding! I need to get sponsored by Advil. The Derbi is back and Drat was makin’ that thing scream yesterday. I think there is a glitch with the flux capacitor because he kept trying to race it on it’s side. In the pits we were designing all the body sliders he’s gonna need. My bikes were great. So nice to have disc breaks and suspension. The 220 has a couple of ergonomic things to sort out on the bars. Definitely need different grips (that don’t spin) and a different break leaver. It goes pretty good but getting shitty spark from the HP4. I think I need to put a spacer under the pick up again. Here is some vid of race 2 lap 1. The scooters were gridded at the back for obvious reasons. I kept up for a while but most of the day was running in a one man pack. Good practice but looking forward to having more scoots to keep me company. At least I never got lapped. Make sure to change the resolution to at least 720HD at the bottom of the player screen… www.youtube.com/watch?v=S9Pz4buEeEU

Angus the mangos. Dude I don't know if it's the new bike mods or you or both. But you looked a lot more sorted and seemed to be going really well. Nice job!
