    CJ Laroche - MA #20 in Supersport - company is sponsoring the PITT round. We should be thankful that a guy that runs a solid business and runs near the top 10 of SS is putting money in to sponsor the entire round. If you're at the PITT round, stop by and thank him.

    Not the 6, those have always been good. The 10 had issues for a while even the factory couldn't sort out. Tires were a moot point.

    Heading over tonight to camp for the weekend and helping out a buddy doing twins cup.

    Can't wait to see what the turnout is. I've been promoting it to anyone i know who is even remotely interested in motorcycles. Even though we are less than an hour away, I'm amazed how many people don't even one there is a track there. I have seen billboards when you get closer to PittRace.

    I haven't watched the last few rounds, what did they do rules wise for Pettrucci and Herrin?

    That's pretty awesome!!! Thanks for sharing.
    Thank you for explaining that. I'm presuming they dominated?

    Regarding the forklifts we discussed, last week I bought 29 used Tailift by Toyota forklifts out of an auto factory. They are still sitting in Alabama, and need me to arrange transport to California. I can get one or more over to you in Florida if you like, but they are all propane. When I last checked, I had access to new pneumatic forklifts, but the rough terrain are on a boat somewhere and I would need to put down some money to lock them up, if you have some interest?

    They took third actually. The other fast guys were running times right with them.

    I believe that they were on a Pani V2, not the Pani V4, so pretty impressive to be keeping up with in-line 4 1000cc superbikes on a 955cc twin.

    What’s the tenting areas? Last time in ‘20 it was all down by south paddock but I thought I saw something about the water tower hill was allowed. Can I park the truck up on H2O hill or have to leg all my stuff up there? Anyone know?

    It also had a stock tank. So they had to come in for fuel more than the other competitors.

    Had they run a V4 I’d bet it would have been even more fuel stops. My 22 is a thirsty beast.

    Red flag.

    Yates gets into the air fence.

    Rider alright, bike not so much.
