I was hoping on getting my "A" bump this year. Now I get to ride with a bunch of "self-rated" A riders in STT and Motovid.
Someone in mgmt definitely dropped the ball on this.
I don't suppose anyone has the story about what happened in the B group in the Kettle Bottoms in the afternoon on Sunday? I heard about a bike-to-bike collision, and it looks like Blacklisted12 was involved, but do we know if the other guy is ok? The track was red flagged for a looong time.

I was able to very slightly loosen...
Hells yeah man, it's been awhile! I'm not actually riding this weekend, just driving down so I can get the tires bought/mounted and ready for my first trackday at RA in May.

Overall I had a great day... probably...
Great discussion - thanks Marshall and everyone else for their feedback.
I'm probably going to go with the slicks out of the gate this year, if it's overkill so be it, I can always step down to D211s or D209s later.
I know they're not going to make me a better rider - but if it can give me...
Hey everyone, it's been awhile!
So the track season is fast approaching and I'm hoping you fast peeps can help a brotha out with a tire question.
