Love the schedule Mongo! Unfortunately have carpal tunnel surgery in Jan. Be back by April. Total rebuild on the EX upcoming...
No biggie. I know these are hard calls to make just another view point that is probably in the minority. I don't know how many other mid-central only folks there actually were. I just liked it because short of Nashville all the races were easy to get to and spaced out. You could just dump NOLA, the Saturday events, and the Jan Tally and call it the Dixie region or something....
I understand why it happened and realize changes needed to be made to make sure WERA is around for the long haul. I never did the entire SE as it's just too much driving, with 3 RRR, 1 Jennings and 1 NOLA that's 5 events that are 10 1/2 to 12 hour one-way trips so between drive time and fuel costs just puts it out my reach. There's no way to make a perfect schedule for everyone but from the standpoint of living in Kentucky a schedule that consisted of Road Atlanta, Tally, Barber and add in a round at Grattan (like the DH weekend) would still keep the driving times reasonable.
We were going to do the Summit and VIR endurances also. Now, we're going to make the two rounds at Road Atlanta.
Motard on kart track at VIR twice a month with friends looking better and better .............. But i got some trash talk to take care of first ............ I was once told on here by a championship winning expert " Ive never been passed by a SV 650 Must less a novice SV 650 . Well it happened and the rest of the year shut em up so i will take care of a few and carry on
How did this turn into a LWT shit talking thread? lol I will be really interested to see how things go down now that all of the fast Novices are Experts. I'm guessing a lot less shit talking... Especially since VIR is out and Summit isnt an national/endurance round now...
Why not just replace Nashville with NOLA? It's certainly more Mid than East. Morris I'll be at Tally in Jan so I'll bring your stuff if you don't make it here by then. Yep sucks. Believe me I know all about it. It's the same distances from New Orleans to most of the SE tracks. Hence why I will never see Roebling. BUT at least Nashville was replaced with NOLA which is brand new rather than dodging pot holes. I actually liked Nashville and hate to see it close. Don't they all!?!?! lol
im going to miss Nashville. The potholes are a non issue if you are consistent with your line . I never once felt like I was in danger with them.
I never had any issues at Nashville, not even with the transitions. It was a hard track to dialed in, but a lot of fun once you did.
One race weekend per month for North Central... Fits my budget for sure. Look forward to race the old farts again LOL :P
