Default 2nd at Willow

Well, I'm at work but here's the quicky:

No Practice this whole weekend. I Was pretty busy with the tires.

Started 8th. Wheelied twice off the line which cost me lot riders in turn 1. Got back to 6th by 1st lap. Picked 'em off from there.


Worthy Notes:
Dropped 2 seconds.

Dyno'd the 'ol girl and she isn't feelin' good. 100hp. When I got her she was at 140 hp. Basically she is a very overweight 600 right now. Maxed out in 3rd gear down the straight, boucin' off the limiter except it's at 8500 rpm isn't the greatest thing for going against other 1000's. She's gonna get a good going though, because I'm takin' 1st in my last novice race!

Michelin Contingency is a great thing.

Had a Blast :thumbup
