Got through page 16 of this....so by page 21, this might be way overplayed by now, but I will definitely show up to see Dutch perform, ahem, conduct the riders meeting, and explain the "my wife says I can" statement...
After a year and a half off helping the wife raise my twin 3 year olds, ready to get back to the race track...

Although I appreciate the offer Troy, the 1K will be ILLEGAL in F40...they limit to 750's
Definitely gonna run JC on Sunday..maybe you let me take the 1K out then and we play :D
Racing my slow ass Thruxton Saturday at Main in ultralights and lightweight F40 (those pesky SV's eat my lunch on the straights)..but I may make my yearly JC appearance on Sunday...Hasn't been a year I've not done JC since 2005...this seems to be my last chance for 2010
On another note, anyone...
great job Katie
on another note...why the low turnout for nationals? Only 4 or 5 amateurs in 600 and 750 CC classes? CCS had at least 5 to 6 times that number in their amateur classes. Was it due to rain, peeps out of $$?
at any rate, good finishes...
Crap Todd...was lookin for your results and didn't see anything. sorry to hear about your Latin mechanical
Really was missin being out there with you cats this weekend, but 4 kids to support now got me tapped out on funds and a "safety first" mentality takes a front seat
Live update:
My first race experience. F40 started 10th row finished 4th, 1 spot off podium :)
I'm hooked! Learning a bunch. Thanks to Katie, Todd, Big Steve etc for hyping me up and all the pre-race pointers.
Katie started like 35th in GTU (25 min) and came home 8th. Great job!
