AMA Mid-Ohio, Racing in Front of a Crowd
What a blast this past weekend was. There's so much to talk about, but I'll just give a quick recap that we finished 6th in the AMA Sports 600 Shootout, which I'm pretty happy with. We finally got back down to the times I qualified at last Friday, which was at least a step in the right direction. I really wanted to be going two seconds faster, but seeing ...

AMA Mid-Ohio Weekend Schedule
Here's the AMA schedule for this weekend at Mid-Ohio. It looks like we get one 40-minute practice on Friday, and a 30-minute practice on Saturday. Sunday consists of a 20-minute practice/warm up before the race, which is just before lunch.Weather predictions still look a bit shaky. Rain appears to be a reappearing possibility, with slightly colder temperatures throughout the three days. It should be a ...

Mid-Ohio Wet Setup Dialed In?
If it rains this weekend, I think we've got a good wet setup. I never looked at Saturday morning's wet practice times until today, but we were right there at the top. Second fastest and the fastest overall in each group respectively.We made a gamble and didn't run that setup in the wet race later in the day, but we'll be prepared this time ...

Mid-Ohio, We Made It
We did it. We made the top 20 in the AMA Sports 600 Shootout, which means we get to go back to Mid-Ohio this weekend for the AMA Superbike finale, which I'm really excited about.Overall we finished 11th, after qualifying a lowly 19th (see Friday post for details). I *finally* had a decent start and moved forward throughout the race. I'm a bit disappointed that ...

Mid-Ohio, More Rain
Quick recap - wet morning. Two practice sessions. I highsided in the second session (not a big deal, but it was one of those weird crashes). So James and my dad busted their butts to get the bike ready to go for 750 qualifying, which was less than an hour away (rearsets and exhausts were the main parts needing replacing). We had the bike re-tech'd by ...

Mid-O, Autumn is Here
Cool weather and sketchy rain conditions presented themselves both today and yesterday. I started off practice Thursday morning in the 1:40 range (second time to the track, first on the new pavement) and ended up getting into a high 1:34. James, my dad and I were pretty happy with the progress.Today went well except for the sketchy rain conditions. I dropped into a low 1:34 range early ...

Departing for Mid-O
We're planning on leaving for Mid-Ohio around 5:00 later today - maybe even earlier if we finish loading up sooner than planned. The AMA put out a recent newsletter with some added info leading up to the big weekend. It lists our team entered in the Team Challenge, along with other stuff on the festivities planned. It should be a great time - even with somewhat sketchy weather predictions.If ...

Monday Morning Grind
And what a grind it is today. I could barely get up this morning and I think today's going to be a long day. After listening to a bunch of music over the weekend and copying some of it over to my Zen, I can't help but tie the two together this morning with the lyrics of Oasis echoing in my head; "Need ...

Nelson Safety Fund Update
The response has been great so far - we've raised over $3000, tripling the initial goal set out from the beginning. The new goal is $4000 and donations will be accepted through Monday, September 25th. Sportbike Track Gear has volunteered to give away a pair of race gloves ($220 value) to one of the donators, who will be picked once this is over. Thanks again ...
