It's official...

...V7's split - separate races for HW and MW. Great move, thanks Mongo!

Now this (of course) comes out after sending in my pre-entry a few hours ago

One negative for me - the V7MW race is right after the Senior Superbike race. How does this work? How do you get gridded for the next race, especially if you have to go to post tech? I enjoy the hell out of both races, and don't want to give either of them up. Any ideas or experiences?

Edit: One more thing - the yearly schedule says race direction at Tally on 2/5 is cc, but the race schedule says clockwise.

Man, I'm full of something today. I just need to race

 

Man, I hear ya. Usually, I don't mind the off season so the wallet can heal. But this year I am so ready to get back out there. What is it now, 3.5 weeks to TGPR?

 

Actually only 18 days :up:

 

If you tell Chuck you have back to back,he will usually give you a little extra time,but thats a heavy fuel load we'll have to carry,which sucks and I wanted to run 6Hw on the 400.Oh well,You can't always get what you want--------repeat.

You could always bring your gas can and a bike stand to pit road, and do a quick splash of gas on the 5 minute board of the 2nd race. :up:

 

Yeah, what he said. You could just sit out 7mw.

 

Go straight to the guy wih the clip board and yell "Next race".Then tell him your number.I had to do that all season long in '04.Don't leave his side until he writes down your number.Then head for the track...........

 

But Stick,without following me how would you know where to go??I better not,I dont want you going the wrong direction on the track.Its a safety thing.

 

Good enough...I'll do it. When Fuzzy posted '18 more days' it hit me - I ain't ready! Oil change, brakes, this and that.

Better get busy

 

'91 GSXR 750 for Sale ... or trade for a F2/F3 ... if I've got to run against Melch and Stick, then I might as well get beat twice.

 

That's a good point. Tally would be real hard for me.


"but it's the way I went last time here, why can't I go that way now?"

 

Because its in the rulebook,V7MW Stickboy must follow Melch no exceptions regardless of age.Its in the new revised braille issue.

 

That can't be right. I'm the 05 spinach 7 champeen. We already found that out. Are you supposed to bail out at the last minute or something?

 

That's great we're splitting V7MW and HW.

But do we really have to go back to back with Senior Superbike? I would think a large majority of V7 (and V6) guys are also Senior guys.

I know it's difficult to accomodate everyone, but please Mongo try to split those for us.

I would really love to run all three races, Senior, MW, HW, but I just don't like running back to back races, and in fact, I won't. Not a threat, just a fact. I've done it before and it's not fun.

My first suggestion would be to just switch Senior SB to the first race, then A-SS second, then the V7 race. Looking at the schedule and classes, I would think A-SS has the least amount of Senior guys.

Thanks.
