Glad your OK dude.
Just for FYI!!
Ok everyone,
I know all of you were giving me a hard time about not even coming close to Ducman's best lap time. Well I turned a best 1:16.65 at Friday's practice (BHF)! New tires and a couple adjustments helped me there! See the pic of the Mycron. Lap timers don't lie. It's a real time and yes it's my bike w/ me riding it.
I got my pace up, now all I have to do is learn how to keep it rubber side down shinny side up...:confused I'm sure you heard I wodded my bike Sunday during my first race. Was in 3rd place just got around the 4th and 5th place guys that I was having a hard time passing! Was putting my head down to catch Jim (omniglh and Andy #19) I would of caught up to them but I doubt that I could of passed them for the the first place. BUT I eat shit in turn 4. So to answer your question, No you can't go wide open from the bus stop into turn 4 :laughing Jack got some killer pics of my crash and race day!

Jim ended up finishing that race in 2nd place! Jim had a great weekend.
I just ended up thrashing my bike but I'm gonna put it back together for RA race. See if I can make it thru the weekend w/ out crashing:laughing

Sounds liek you have a great attitude. Sell your truck, buy a racebike and hit the AMA circuit. You got a lot of catching up to do, but you might do pretty good with some practice.dano5150 said:
If I was a rich ass basterd I might sponsor you just for fun. But if I was a rich ass basterd I'd be too good to talk to you anyway.
So crashing is kool?KBOlsen said:
Damn Dan, those are awesome times and, uh.. awesome pics! Props to Jack for catching all that. Also, it looked like you tumbled a bit, right? No injuries at all?

No, DanO didn't sustain any injuries (well, aside from a little rash from his crash in the pits :evil )
Bike painting took place all last week...and what a loooooong week. We were up until sunrise, Sunday night/monday morning painting... up again until 4am Weds night wet sanding and buffing... and again until 3am installing plastics and stickers.
Cherry- that's actually both DanO and my goal. Plan is to get bumped to expert by the end of this year. Depending on how things go - we'll *attempt* to qualify for RA and probably Brainerd in '03. Regardless of how well I do in '03, I hope to improve enough to hold my ProAMA license by 2004.
Is there anybody here that is significantly wealthy, that would like to sponsor a couple punks as they attempt to realize their dreams? :laughing
