Just wanted to say thanks to the corner workers on sat at tally.. i was knocked out in turn 3, they did a great job and the med act people as well, wera put on a great race weekend, it will be my last race after this mishap...just wanted to say thanks..Brian
Don't worry about getting out of racing. I've had teammates call it quits just by watching someone else's accident. If your heads not in it, your better off not being in it. If you change your mind, it will still be here.(Barring the actions of the EPA or OPEC.) Take care!
did they really "fix" the "bowl" at talli....T2, especially, and T3 were always disasterous, as far as i've known anyhow...haven't been there since feb. 99, and i still have my doubts about the track....is it any tighter then the "90's" at CMP?....repaved, yea....so how's the "banked" T4?
Yes they reapved the whole track. Where in the hell have you been, hiding under a rock? TGPR rocks now and IMO is far better than CMP.
just too damn busy, i gave it my best intent to get to talli for saturday only. wife left for las vegas on sunday outta atlanta, and...well....after i changed my trailer's blown out tire on friday, right past road atl...i figgered i'd better spend quality time at home and the "kitty"...so i did a 180....last year heading to talli in april, lost my transmission....
hit the button too soon...i would like to expand on this....but...it's time to go swimming..... gonna be at the bike show friday? taking the tl to traxxion then over to the show and present to anthonyduc one beautiful 1993 ducati 888
Friday? May God bless your soul. Traffic in ATL on a Friday is a nightmare. Good luck!!! I'm thinking about showing up Saturday.
All of TGPR was repaved, but the main change was to layout was to the 90's. Also, the cirle has been flattened, so the outside is not off-camber. You can see the new layout on their web page http://www.tgprace.com/ One change racers will notice from past years, most of their markers are gone. The track is smooth, so no bumps to judge from, and the track is one color now, so no spots on the surface to use as markers.
thanks, i know i'll need HIS blessing, if i can time this right i think i'll be o.k. or is that wishful thinking.....jeff at traxxion said it'd take me 1 hour to get from there shop to the center...merely 20 miles away
Just wanted to express agreement with TSR. If it's no fun, don't do it. Life's too short and there are plenty of other fun things. Best of luck!!! [This message has been edited by Bad Iguana Racing (edited 02-15-2001).] [This message has been edited by Bad Iguana Racing (edited 02-15-2001).]

Sounds like a bunch of scared wussy crap to me. Just pack the damn bike in the trailer, show up and ride. You just pre-registered for last weekend so they'd announce your name and make us think you were there, didn't you?
I was @ 4 flaggin' and running for 3. When I looked up and saw you flying over the bars. It happened so quik, I can't really tell if you grabbed to much front or the throttle might have stuck (or a little of both). But as I ran and noticed you still, I asked for Medical before I even reached the edge of the track. Jenky was flaggin' and covering our rears, I believe SVgoddes' dad was the first one to you, I picked up your bike and pushed out of the way. I then went back to help. I was the guy telling you over and over again to lay down and lay still. I realize after doin' this quite a few times that after getting your bell rung, the simplest of things are hard. Anyway, Your welcome very much. It's always nice to get a pat on the back every now and then. It always makes my weekend to here you guys getting your trophys at the end of the day and Thank all the Corner Workers. I've met alot of you guys out on the turns. Heck, that's how I met Brian Stokes, Ted Cobb, Roger Lee Hayden, just to name a few. Sorry that you feel like hanging it up. Hope your head is feeling better, I know you woke up w/ a BIG O' headache. Stop by and say Hi, I'm the worker w/ the yellow Mtn. Bike. Take care and will see ya at the races.....
2 pristine f3's 4 sale (haven't been dropped at all this year)..... i'll take one to roebling for show'n sell (mebbe race) and the tlr should be ready to roll
Hey 411 I saw your crash it didn't look all that bad but it's usually the small one's that get ya.They're right you really dodn't need to be out there if your head is not in it.Sorry to hear you quitting also sorry about you crash.You should try some track days and see if you can get back in the swing of things but if you don't thats ok too.Best of luck in what ever you do and may GOD keep you safe always.Oh almost forgot hope you head feels better. P.S. stay on the BBS May GOD keep all of us safe [This message has been edited by AnthonyDuc (edited 02-15-2001).]
