    Pretty cool. I found it fascinating that your speeds between 4 and 5 were almost the same as they were down the front straight. :wow:

    There's only one thing wrong, though.
    Neither of the cameras showed the uber cool Hix Racing logo on your suit! :D

    Should have gotten one of those cams facing my butt showing the logo, right?!?! Maybe I could even dig in my crack like Rossi, if it would make me faster I'd be all over it!

    Great job again on that logo, everyone has commented on how sweet it looks on the team's leathers. :beer:

    Thank you, you wear it well. ;)

    What data acquisition program are you using and who hooked the cams? It's a pretty sweet set up you're using.

    Jeff Little is the traqmate GPS stuff and the wide angle GoPro cams. He sets it all up and does it for me. He is the tracks all the time and he will do it for anyone, pretty cool. http://www.traqmaterental.com/Video_Session.....html

    I noticed that last week too, at the races and again at Road America last Thursday at the track day, that Ron does have nice leathers. (not that I am into looking at other guys in their leathers). They look very sharp, very professional. Good job Alexa!

  14. Sweet! I like the black/white changes - the logo is cool - any significance? How was the fit - you are a stout guy so how did Alexa do? I'm not as built as you, but still fit but find the "stock" suits don't fit my 49 yr old bod too hot. I'm thinkin' I need to go see her.

    The suit is custom from Spartan, so it fit pretty good when I got it. Alexa did a great job of modifying the neck area to give me a little more room there which was needed. Alexa did all the artwork on the suit as well as the logo's. :)

    Black and white leathers rock. Especially how Ron's are laid out.

    Thanks, I'm really surprised more people don't try the Spartans. I told Dave to raise the price and I'll bet more people buy.

    The video also shows Crozier's clutch giving out after turn 3. Good avoidance by the riders behind him.

    Right on Tim, good racing with you out there. Nope, can't make Laguna, gotta stick closer to home this year. I'll be at HPT though, come up and introduce yourself! :up:
