    Anyone interested in coming out to watch some great races, as well as support a fellow F-Chatter as he feels his way through 50+ bike fields?

    If so, please stop by my pit and say hello. I'm bike #902. I should be easy to find with 2 very very very very annoying little girls running around. (Easy to tell that they are pestering me right now, eh?).

    Humphrey the leghumping (mechanical) dog will be in plain view, humping the post of the EZ Up.

    I highly recommend y'all checking out the superbike races at MSR. Best racing you will see in person. The sights, smells and sounds are excellent.

    There will be many races with all kinds of bikes, from vintage and smaller stuff, to lots of modern, professionally (and unprofessionally) prepared machines. Much more passing than with four-wheelers, and you carnage lovers will thrill to the sight of leather-clad humans sliding and bouncing across the asphalt.

    Saturday and Sunday, or just Sunday?

    My brother is a rider, and is in town this weekend. I'd love to bring him out..

    Sorry guys, I should have clarified.....MSR Cresson. Old habit to just say MSR.

    Saturday is endurance races, Sunday is for Sprints. Obviously, most of the action comes during Sprint Races, as everyone has 8 laps to do what they are gonna do.

    Names to watch for:

    Ty Howard
    Tyler McDonald
    John Haner

    Two are longtime AMA racers and one is a 16 year old kid who is quickly becoming the big-dog around here.

    However, I expect you to be rooting for me, since I own a Ferrari :D:D

    Great day of racing.........VERY VERY VERY HOT!

    Ty Howard broke the old track record (for motorcycles) with a 1:14.05


    Some 10 seconds faster than my best lap :D

    Makes me wonder if it was the race that was red flagged before lunch.. The winner left the field like they were standing still..

    We left moments after the 4-bike pileup around 2pm..

    Not even close. That was a race I was in. As a matter of fact, I was the bike that cleared the 4 clowns who went tumbling, coming out of the rattlesnake.

    The bike you speak of, was Danny Kelsey. He's a novice, in a developmental program.

    You should have sought me out! We had plenty of shade and drinks and such.
