Roll Call: Vintage friday at RRR

Who's going????

 

I'll be there, taking notes. Don't start without me.

 

Hey mark, I'm hearing numerous CB350 guys going.....surprise, I know.

There may be a brand new V1 bike that is looking impressive in pics.....

 

In, V5 and V6LW

 

I am trying to get there. Will anybody happen to have roller starters if I can't get the bikes started?

 

I'll be there.

With rollers, which you are welcome to use.

Cheers,

Dave

 

Unless winter scuttles the plan, getting near a foot of snow today, we be there. Is there race fuel available at the track? If not out of a pump, from a VP dealer, I like to run C12. Smells good.

 

Bucky too Rich?

 

I'll be there.

 

Bucky, even if I dont make it, will be there.

 

Pumps are still the same ones from before. Cash only and the operator is available at specific times to run them. No C12, but there is a 112 leaded.

 

I believe there is a thread in the General section with another option.

 

I hope you make it Rich.....I'm starting to think you are Bucky messing with everyone....like an alter-ego or something....I'm questioning your actual existence sir!

Sounds like I will be going, but not racing. I'm loaning Bennett a V1 motor that I picked up with a parts lot....we'll see how it goes.

Its also been suggested a few of us make a run down to Daytona for the 200 on Saturday.

 

Being that close, Daytona is tempting. Hate to bring this up but, it looks like rain in Savannah thursday thru sunday. Hard to drive 12 hours to race in the rain. What are the local forecasters saying?

I take it Mr Bennet will be running in V-2 also. Might have to show up to give him someone to race.

Bucky is alot more gung-ho than me these days. He is getting use to me bailing out at the last minute.

 

Thank you! Very much appreciated! :up:

 

Dam, if the weather suks I may waffle......I could see it affecting you guys.

I hadn't even looked. RR is 5 hrs from us, but our forecast for the weekend in ATL is spectacular, that's why I didn't even look.

Is Jim, and maybe your young lady friend coming down?.....Jim is always pretty quick, and she seemed to be getting the hang of things well.

Yeah, if this unknown but fresh motor runs and doesn't leak or anything, Bennett will be running V2.

 

Charlie, we could always make a run to Pittsburgh. Just sayin.

 

It will not rain.

You guys kill me. We've been waiting 4 months for a racing opportunity. At our request, or at least in response to our pleas, Mongo adds a Vintage day to an already somewhat sparse schedule. A week out, with the advent of warm weather finally upon us, you're postulating about not racing due to the possibility of some rain.

I loathe racing in the rain. For me, it is a bit of an oxymoron. But, I'll still go and will make the best of it. I need the opportunity because looking forward in the season, I'll miss other WERA Vintage events. If you have the luxury of being able to pick and choose and make all the events you want, then I understand possibly passing on a possible rain event. I don't have that luxury.

So, I say sneer in Mother Nature's face and come on down and wobble 'round with us, rain or shine. The more the merrier, regardless of the percentage of humidity.

Cheers,

Dave

 

I hear you Dave, actually it helps me make up my mind on which bike to bring. Wanted to bring the faster bike for RRR but, the stocker with chrome pipes and fenders is the better wet weather bike. It also has a freshened up top end and didnt think RRR was the place to run it in since one is wfo most of the way around Roebling. Possible rain changes that a little. Okay, now I am stoked like I was a month ago, F'it, I am there.

BTW, the forecast for savannah is now rain from tuesday till sunday next week with thunder storms on friday. So that means it will be sunny and warm by the time we get there.
