Ode to the Pistons
On the potential eve of the Piston's final game of the season (realistically, I think it will be), a friend of mine, Damian pointed me to an ESPN article by Scoop Jackson (http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=jackson/060530&lpos=spotlight&lid=tab5pos2 ), talking about the Piston's sudden drop from championship-favorite to virtually playoff pretender. I've been stunned myself how the Pistons have fallen so far down so quickly. As an avid Piston ...

Traction Control Solved
While working today, I just figured out traction control. Simply add this to your motorcycle's ECU and you'll be all set:while ( rearwheel_speed > frontwheel_speed) { set engine_rpm = 8000; set fuelinjector_fuel_amt = 0;}Settings may vary between machines. I wonder if Yoshimura Suzuki is hiring ...

Routine Maintenance
That's what I thought James and my dad would be doing to the bike after the first three rounds of the season were over. As you can see from the picture sent from my dad's cell phone, that isn't the case. :)

Monday (on Tuesday) Morning Grind
Traction control and getting your butt kicked. Read about both here, courtesy of 6-time AMA Superbike Champion Mat Mladin:http://www.superbikeplanet.com/2006/May/060530-66.htmOne quote worthy of mentioning:"When I was six or seven years old I used to race motocross with the eleven and twelve year olds at my local club. Being in the fight was much more fun than putting a trophy on the mantle for winning an easy ...

Quote of the Day
Another quote from Valentino Rossi's book, What If I Had Never Tried It:"Back in 2000 we had in fact committed a huge mistake. We did not believe in our chances at the start of the season. We thought the title was going to be out of reach. It was my first season in 500cc and it was the ...

Team Update
James has the R6 in the shop and is doing some work to it - mostly maintenance type stuff. We've been trying to pressure him to have the bike ready as soon as possible, primarily for the Grattan testing date coming up on Sunday, June 4th. My dad and I might swing by this weekend in an effort to help lend a hand.It's still fairly ...

Miller Motorsports Park
Miller Motorsports Park will perhaps be the nicest race facility in the U.S. before long. Just nearing completion, this new Utah-based track just outside of Salt Lake City, has been built with the mindset of money being no object. A scant $80 million has been committed to this new facility which features 4 different track configurations; the longest being a 4+ mile ...

Gingerman in 07?
Yes I think so finally. In talking to a credible source this past weekend, WERA has plans to get at least one Gingerman date for the 2007 racing season from what I've been told. WERA tried to get a date this year, but Gingerman wasn't able to find any openings. Gingerman officials called WERA last week and had something open up, but it was too ...
