If I read that map correctly, I’m figuring on not lifting until the first slalom. That concrete section ought to be a neck-strainer as well. I’m looking forward to it.
If anybody else wants to cruise out from Rochester, a few of us will be meeting up at Dunkin Donuts on East Ave (between culver and winton) around (edit) 6:15 AM – leaving by 6:30.
Booo… this event and the next one are practice for Divisionals as far as I’m concerned. If I end up needing new tires for Divs, then I’ll get them. Right now, it doesn’t look like I’ll need them, but we’ll see after next weekend.
well I didn’t have a very good day, but it was still fun. The long course is worth the drive out there (from roch at least). Nice to meet you, Jim . . .
Damn damn DAMN!!! The video from my last run didn’t turn out, it cut to just audio partway through the run, it was outside the car and would have given a great view of my huge spin off into the weeds. Instead I have a vid from inside of my fastest (not clean) run. 69.2+1.
I forgot my cam altogether. That’s ok, because no one wanted to see my crappy runs anyway. I am still trying to figure out the new tires, and my steering rack has got to go. 4 turns lock-to-lock?!!! Time for an Si rack.
Marnie - the pleasure was all mine. Find me next week and I’ll take you for a spin (literally) in the beast.
I sucked pretty good. My first 2 runs were ok, but had cones, my 3rd run I had to slow down to go clean, and my 4th run I got suckered into giving the 300lb food guy a ride… no way that helped .
I hope my tires aren’t totally past prime, each run was slower then the one before it, but that could also be becuase I was trying to get a clean run in, and then gorilla man :-). DO NOT EVER GIVE THE FOOD GUY AT SEAD A RIDE. He is huge, and even worse, he yells and talks to you while you are driving, and is really freaking distracting.
