School was in session at Blackhawk Farms this weekend! Learned a ton and finished on the box in every race. So very close to my first Expert win in the last race of the day as the leader and I drag raced from T7 to the finish line...Read more here...

We had a great weekend at Putnam Park with NESBA. This was the first of NESBA's new Skills Enhancement Days (S.E.D.) and I was honored to be able to do some of the instructing. Overall, we had a great turnout and really enjoyed both days! Here's some pics of the event.

Two races today, Unlimited Supersport and Unlimited GP. Finished 4th in Unlimited Supersport behind Rob Jensen, Matt Hall and Brian Hall. This is a huge victory! I also finished 4th in the last race of the weekend.

I requested a bump from Amateur to Expert this morning and was given the go ahead to run the white plates immediately. I am now a little guppy swimming with the hungry sharks. In my first expert race, I was able to finish 3rd on the podium and unfortunantly was taken out in the last corner on lap 8 of a 7 lap sprint. I came back to finish the last race of the day with a solid 4th place finish.

First race weekend of the season at Heartland Park Topeka. I won both my amateur races (GTO and Unlimited Superbike) today. I won by a very large margin and actually finished 3rd among the Expert field. I decided that, for me, it was the right thing to go ahead and request the bump to Expert.

Had a good day at LVC today. Really good turn out with lots of friends coming out in support. Big props to LVC for putting on such a cool event and I really enjoyed the chance to crank out some tunes. Big thanks to those who came out!

Well since we were not able to get much testing done at Barber back in March and then last weekend at Blackhawk was snowed out and freezing, I went ahead and added the Wednesday (April 23) Blackhawk Farms track day and the Thuds (April 24) Heartland Park track day. We are hoping for some nice weather during these dates. This will put us testing on Wednesday and driving all night from the Rockford area to Topeka on Wednesday night, testing on Thursday and then racing 7 races on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Driving back Sunday night and going to work on Monday morning! Should be fun!!

The NESBA weekend at Blackhawk Farms last weekend (Apr 12/13) was bitterly

COLD and raining / snowing. Saturday was canceled due to the weather, so big props to NESBA for refunding everyone's money. We split the costs of an inside garage and got some work done on the bikes while trying to keep warm. We pretty much froze sleeping in the garage Friday night, so Burrito and I took a trip to Wallymart and got us some of the 0 degree sleeping bags and nice blow up beds...slept like a baby Saturday night! The snow and rain stopped for us on Sunday, the track temps never really got above the mid 30's so keeping heat in the tires was a real struggle. We got in a couple of laps in the morning on the "A Bike" before electrical gremlins bit us again. No biggie though, we just switch gears and went to work on the "B Bike". We were able to get a lot done on it. Overall, it felt real good to get in some laps, even though the race tires were a little sketchy offering only minimal grip. Thanks to my team for all their hard work in prepping the bikes for the weekend and in enduring the miserable conditions.

From all the positive feedback we have received, I think it is safe to say that our first ever Advanced Riding Techniques Seminar was a success. Even with the weather in the low 30's and snow on the ground, we had a standing room only crowd at LVC Motorsports. A big thanks to all of you that came out! See you folks at the track in a couple weeks where we can all work on actually putting some of this stuff into practice.

I am proud to announce we have partnered with GP Tech for the 2008 race season. GP Tech has an amazing range of really cool stuff aimed at the professional roadracer as well as some pretty pimping stunter bits as well. Hard to find stuff like thumbrakes, adjustable fairing stays, subframe kits, specially designed quick change systems for endurance racing, quick turn throttles, active brake levers, superbike tail seats...and the list goes on and on! Check out their web site, very cool stuff!

Wierd, I don't remember praying for patience?!?! As a kid, I remember my Mom telling me, "Son, don't ever pray for patience... cause God will send you lots of trials to teach you patience!" Maybe I needed to learn some patience cause this past weekend at Barber Motorsports Park was certainly full of trials!

Normally, I bring a back up "B Bike", but with it being so early in the season that was not possible this weekend. This left me spending both days trying to resolve an oil leak and some fuel injection issues on my "A Bike" while the weather was just absolutely beautiful, clear and 86 degress. The bike was prepped OK before the trip, but sometimes these things just happen.

In addition, during the couple of laps I turned late in the day on Saturday I managed to get some sort of debris in my left eye. By Sunday morning, my eye was really inflamed and I could barely see out of it. Big thanks to Dave Frick for helping me get some piece of metal out from under my left eyelid.

And as several friends reminded me, the good news is that I did not put the bike on the ground and it wasn't a race weekend with points going out the window. Big thanks to all those who helped me this weekend - especially Bill from Nice Raxx who fixed the oil leak and missed several of his own riding sessions helping me wrench for hours on end. I am not sure how much patience I learned this weekend, but I was sure reminded of just how valuable friends are that step up when you need help. A big 'ol THANK YOU to all my friends who helped me this weekend!
