I'll be watching from home. 

What a perfect time get together with the Virginia and North Carolina and who ever else FJ-09, Tracer 900 guys. Come on people. I want to meet you  guys. I love  my bike and have only had it for  not even  a year. I'm excited for the racing but meeting up with at least somet of you guys would even better.

Getting to far away tracks is something I'll do in retirement. Meanwhile, I'll have to watch on TV.

I was at VIR yesterday and there was free parking for motorcycles. I found a 2021 or 22 Tracer to park mine beside.

Very nice. It's the first in-person look that I've gotten.

Hopefully we'll finally get to see Petrux & Gagne duke it out.

I also saw that Petrux showed up to VIR and did a trackday like a normal person. 

Petrucci finished 4th just off of an all Yamaha  podium for Saturday's race 1.

The Yami package is clearly superior in MA. 

Did you happen to see what happend to Petrux after the finish? Poor guy...

No. I'm going to look on YouTube and check to see if the full race is on there yet.

The R/M1 aint too shabby in WSK either!  It's just that Toprik & Gerkoff keep screwing up!

P-man just got blocked after the finish line and took himself out rather than hit the stupid dick who slowed way down; and the marshals and corner workers didn't lift a finger to help him!!!  What the f-ck is that about!  Cuz he speaks Amurikun funny and is on a pizza bike?

 

Can you tell I'm PO'd?  Petrux is such a nice guy and really a normal type who was given few breaks and made the most of it.  Plus he's human sized, like 6 feet+ and not an alien jockey.

Whose going to Elkhart Lake (Road America)?

I may go but have to cage up there, because I'm still recovering from my latest surgery, if anyone needs a ride or wants to carpool...

Man I'd love to go. I might. I've got to look at the details more. I'll let you know soon

Yup that really peeved me too. I won't be surprised if he doesn't come back after he recovers.
