This is the lower part of the track. There was a little jump that kicked you over the edge of the pit so the fast guys were landing half-way down the slope. To extend the track to GP distance, the track switched back and forth in the pit before climbing out like you see here. Then instead of coming straight back it went up and down the side of the pit a couple of more times. They put in a long whooped straight on the right-hand side that after a hairpin you came back flat on the street before re-entering the Raceway.

This is the motocross section at the higher-level that they keep pretty much the same.

Maybe Bret, Brit and I can race as Team Useless.... :D Seriously, It'll be nice to meet and hang out some, but I am only looking for someone who is going to hang in there and finish and never mind the pace.

Moto a Go Go and Coup de Grace - hardcore! I'll be cheering you on from the fence, I'm afraid. I dream of doing the Ironman, but my body and vintage bike are no way ready for 2008. Four weeks into major do-over on the health and fitness front, maybe 2009's a possibility....

...I'll find you and say hi on the day. All the best.

Dude,C'mon. I'm a Hillclimber, they got a class for everyone. It's a no pressure situation, unless you get into a drinking contest with Watson and Troy Lee.

I called 10 fricken people to role with me in the Superscrewer and none of the pussies could go, for what ever reason. :evil: I heard every excuse immaginable. :roll: My Pops even told me he had to babysit, WTF :?: Thanks for the hospitality, wish I could have made it. Totally my loss. :(
I'm just gonna run it solo next time, like Speedway. :lol:
