    Wish we had the live timing screen like you did a couple times this season. That was sweet!

    That takes a couple things like me being at the track and good web access.... But yeah it was fun :D
     
  7. Bemisderfer won the expert heavy weight solo, folowed by Winslow, Sam Gaige in third, and Blake Kelley in fourth. Bennet was also running with the lead pack, but had to retire from the race.

    'spose I could head over there with my Palm Treo and my laptop but then I would have to gain 200lbs. and buy a box of donuts so I could post updates. :Poke: :D

    The weekend went really well. Avoided the bad weather and Jim and company did a great job running the show. Massive oil spill on Saturday that could have ruined the day, but WERA and the BeaveRun crew cleaned up everything, making sure we had a great track to ride on Sunday.

    Blake, Sammy, Brent and Billy were the front runners of the day in the 600 classes. They were all moving real well. Definitely some great racing. And lots of bikes across the board. Great event overall.

    Definatley a great weekend of racing. I don't know how the experts keep getting faster as the track gets bumpier!!

    In the novice classes Greg Miller pretty much smashed everyone. First time at the track he's running minute flats. I think he won every race he entered!!

    Props to Kyle Wyman, John Palmer and Drew Harbuck as well.

    Beaver update: I suck!

    Other than that, it was a great weekend. Jim, the Wera officials, and the corner workers did a great job! Thank you to all of them.

    Also a giant thank you to my pit neighbors that saved my canopy from ending up in the land of Oz during that storm saturday evening. Wicked winds and funnel clouds came in while we were out to dinner, yikes.

    P.S. Did anyone notice the very high abundance of very sexy girls at the track? Not that I noticed, someone pointed it out to me.

    Well, two funnel clouds formed on Saturday night, my ezups tried to escape into a low altitude orbit. I set a new personal best lap time. I also learned a valuable lesson. Don't forget to preregister. Starting in last place of the 2nd wave for every race blows!

    Can anyone find the results on mylaps.com? I can't even find the event listed.

    Mylaps won't be up for several days. The officials have to forward stuff to HQ before it gets posted.

    Fun weekend over all.
    Boo hoo for Bill Stranahan for crashing our of the lead in B superstock one corner from the finish line.

    Like you said great weekend. G Miller, K Wyman, J Palmer, and D Harbuck are Pure Beast!!!! I look at them then lower my head and ask "What am I doing wrong?"
    haaa haaa.....

    I was disapointed with my finishes but in the end I shaved off 6 seconds from the last time i was at Da Beave in 06. My Bike "The Pig" dont like Beaver much, lol.

    Oh ps: I got my all time lowest gas millage towing the Fun Finder behind my fronty. 8.6mpg "WTF"!



    Man durring the storms, so many folks ran out to dinner we didn't have enuff people around to catch all the Canopys blowing away...


    The Hot Chick quota was wayyyyyyyyy up this weekend...I mean Wayyyy up!!!!
    :) :) :) :) :) :)

    Saturday nite was funny.
    Some "Nameless" guys went around pulling mega pranks...
    I heard a certain Rolli Manolli had all his cloths snatched while at the shower and had to run out with just a wash cloth on. then someone scotter was taken up to the second floor of the building while he showered. Some got lock in the porta johns, tents zip tied...lol
    all kinds of pranks.

    This weekend was like Highschool summer camp and racing all rolled into one.

    Great work all around. And good move switching to 8 lap races too.
    And yes, almost every male in the paddock noticed the incredible amount of beautiful and helpful young ladies in the pit area.

    And did I mention that Joe Kraft is wicked fast? Yes, I just did.
