Jordan,

Pretty sure I will be there but not planning to race either weekend. Finally a race that is close to home...only 90 minutes to Danville.

Maybe you can show me a "whip" during your race. :D :D I plan to bring the camera...I might even have a new HD video camera by then.

BTW, I rode at NCMP about a month ago. Ran into a dad named Stanley and his son Stanton(?). Anyhow, he said he knew you. He races on a 300ex.

awsome jon! I will be there friday for this weekend and thursday for next weekend, hope to meet up with you there! Yea stanton is a good rider, he is one of my good friends. They are a great family and will be there again this weekend and next. He has been at both AL and KY and has done fairly well, usually top 8, and its his first full year racing.

Cool, I will track you down. Yea, Stanton is really good and especially for being on a 300ex. He chased this old man down after 4 laps at NCMP and I had to let him go around or die of a heart attack staying ahead of him. :eek2: I told his dad he needs to teach him to respect his elders better. :p I let him ride my 450r a bunch of laps. He was doing really well on it. I am sure Stanley will be building him a 450r next year.

My wife is working all three days this weekend and I was going to head to Breezewood but I really need to find someone who wants to split the costs some...even if it was only $50 towards fuel. I am now at $266 round trip just to get there and back so I am at the point of only going there for 4 day weekends.

Why do you go to the track on Friday...just to practice? I really want to start racing but I still don't like people riding too close to me...yea, that is a problem. :D I thought perhaps if I started just practicing around other racers I could get more comfortable with it. Truth is, I don't trust myself not to go down from getting too excited and overjumping a jump...then having someone else run me over.

elementryder: sweet! nah no practice, its a race. Its a d13 race and im hoping there will be a good turnout! Great weather!

jon: yea stanton and his dad are very cool, and stanton is good on the 450, i can't wait till he moves up. He rode my 450 at south fork a while back and he looked good on it. I go to the track on fridays(district races) so we dont have to get up early on saturday and head down there, main reason why we got a toy hauler, but for the nationals, im leaving thursday and get down there thursday night cuz there is practice all friday, so im deffinately down for that, plus i just love being at the races and hanging out with friends, lol

yep, he will be there this weekend too on it. He went to KY on a stock can-am and i think got like 9th overall in prod b, but it will be interesting when he gets all of his stuff on it.

gloop: are you going to be there this weekend? or is that for the national weekend?

Jordan,

You should see me on the track tomorrow. I am definitely going to run the practices and do everything I can to get myself to the line in the 40+ class. I will probably just wear a pair of Depends just in case. :D I am nervous just thinking about it. :eek2:

If you don't have a reservation, you had better bring the rig... There's a car race somewhere close that same weekend, and everything was booked......

Perhaps it is Virginia International Raceway. I drove by there on my way home from Birch Creek yesterday.

I will see you there on Sunday Pappy. Connie and I plan to head head up for the day.

Warning to everyone...there were plenty of cops patrolling around the smaller towns in NC and VA yesterday. I am sure they will be out next weekend hoping to increase sales. :D I highly recommend traveling at the posted speeds when you are nearing the towns. I didn't see any cops using radar out in the rural areas between the towns.

If you can bring it back I will get it in somehow, even if I have to put it in the motorhome ( the wife will love that), I need to get a frame ready because the way Zak's riding I expect to go through a couple frames this year. I'm sure you'll be busy during the day but make sure you make it over for dinner & drinks.
