Endurance Ride ?

My name is Ben Walters I am looking for an endurance team to ride for in the 06' season. I have 2 yrs. endurance racing experience for Army Of Darkness (never crashed any of there endurance bikes) I am looking for a team that is running middle weight super bike or heavy weight superbike. You can email me @ [email protected] or just reply here. Thanks

 

What, you didn't get enough of running over the fat novices at Barber?

 

Ben,
Would you consider running MWSS? Lone Wolf Cycles has upped their program for 2006. We will be running 05 CBR600RRs instead of the 03 ZX6RR. Fred Bittner may be coming back.
Looking to do 10 events next season. I can send you an itemized breakdown of costs.

Ben is waaay too fast to pay - he should get paid to ride on end. team . Somebody better give him a ride or BRP is gonna snatch him and make him ride a LW bike whether he likes it or not !

 

Is AOD racing next year, or have they called it quits?

 

Hmm, word was that AOD riders paid to ride. It is kind of hard to have riders just show up and ride for free unless you are Vesrah (hell they get paid), Team Extreme and maybe 1 other. I know Ben is FAST, just there only so many slots for free rides, if someone wants to sponsor him and have their company logos on everything I own, no problem.

 

Well, you know...don't believe everything you hear. The AOD rider program was structurally, monetarily, and metaphysically...um...complex. Many of the rider-borne costs were not financial in nature; in fact, there are riders from many years ago who are still paying for the fact that they ever swung a leg over a 99 bike. However, many of the benefits also extended well beyond the usual trophies, accolades, groupies, bags of small unmarked bills, and various foodstuffs, and would most likely require years of serious study and meditation to fully appreciate. So certainly, while some AOD riders did indeed pay to ride, the full cost/benefit analysis for seat time on an AOD machine vastly transcends the usual metrics by which these things are measured.

That being said, Ben would definitely be a smart investment for any team that's seriously interested in winning some WERA endurance races next year.

 

Again, you being new to endurance, you will find that a guy like Ben is called a ringer of sorts. YOU pay him to help you win a championship. Only got to run the last half of the season, but from what I saw of him - he's definately a solid rider who will certainly benefit the team if you can get the right "other" riders teamed up with him. Him and Jensen helped AOD win races. Don't insult guys like that by offering them to help pay a 1/3 or whatever for an entry level team. AOD use to have a pay structure when it was Jim, Scott, and Sam, etc.

Look, there are more riders out there other than the Vesrah guys. Don't get me wrong, they're great guys, but there are a few guys that were out there you'd DARE not offer a non paid ride to. Here's a quick (small) list to avoid embarrassment later...

Jensen, Walters, Frankenfield, Crozier, Jacobi, Batey, Ivey, and any racer consistantly in the top 5 of any National Expert A, B, and C event...

Yes, expenses can be tough, but realize this - you need to pay to win sometimes and having a bunch of good novices or buddies help pay equally isn't the recipe.

 

Ben is being modest.

He didn't even mention the T-T-T-T-T-Turbo!:wow:

 

Ben who???

Everyone can just stop right now with all of this cause Ben will be riding on my 04 KTM 450 motard in the LWSB class! So Gary and Martin better have their stuff together or yall will be "TOAST" !!!

P.S. Whassup Mr. Walters? You know where you should go and do not make me beg !!

Dave apologizes for a number of inadvertent keyboarding errors.

Please substitute the following sentence:

"Ben, please advise what color M&M's you require between stints."

I would love to go back to Vegas.
I wonder if Scott is hiring?

 

bumpy for my man Walters

 

I knew you would be along any time now.







Not that there's anything wrong with being gay!

 

What kind of "foodstuffs". We tried PB&J. It worked for Keith.

Melissa, everybody knows that if you want to keep a secret you take their tongues NOT their thumbs.

Ben, have you found a ride yet?
