epic event! rained almost the whole damn time, except for saturday night when it cleared.
tt and a.d. drove down as did aaron and j not that d (seperately).
joe c, c. marsh, and i made up the caferacer.net types. the entire nyc wrecking crew showed, with the new rickman G50 matchless, but jordan didn't run it cause of the weather. jaimes summerfeld manx needs gearbox help so that stayed at home.
i had a massive battle in form500/v1/350gp with russ beltz on his rd400. i took the win in my class, but could'nt hold the last lap pass for overall win.
v3/v5 was my best race. it stopped raining for a bit, the track sorta dried and we could go. v5 is 1000cc bikes and v3 is upto 750cc bikes. i had a three way scrap with rus on his rd400 and kenny cummings on the 750 norton. i was able to hold them both off to win that race also.
v2/500gp was a giant cluster f for most involved. c. marsh had already retired for the day. joe clancy registered for only 350gp, so aaron jumped on his bike for 500gp, tim and a.d. went out in 500, i was in v2. race starts, i'm chasing a sr500 and by lap two i try an outside pass in the carosel and lowside on the sealer. a.d., retires his machine a lap later with a mechanical in the same corner. lap 6 sees a three man group for the v2 lead with tt foolowing inches for the 500gp second place. tt tries a bold outside move in the carosel on the sealer and.....lowsides in the same damn place i did. three cafetypes all rode back to the pits together, and our bikes were hauled by the crash truck. i'm sure someone will post the pics of our bikes in the tech shed.
it was a great weekend. lotsa wood taken home and real good times!
