I think I have a couple of Pro Honda Oils stickers I didn't put on my bike. we can slap them on your 50 and pretend you're a factory rider.

Me, ha, you should have spoken up sooner. I don't even hit 160 with gear.

Depo DNS'd. Some crazy claim about not being able to start it but chose not to bring it to a place where people who do lots of mods and repairs on motorcycles would be abundant. Yep, weak.

He ended up riding BWhip's Ruckus while DoubleDan and I slugged it out on 49cc knockoff pocketbikes with evl_twn pulling 1:30somethings on a 200cc cheater, JetB hauling RedRider's doppelganger and JH41 pulling paparazzi video duty on his scoot.

The videos and pics tell the full story so I won't make this a spoiler. There's just no way to capture it in words.

Here's a glimpse from the pregame warmup:

I think it needs a "Ride of the Valkyries" soundtrack.

That was hilarious how he just stumbled right up onto his feet.

haha that would be great. I'll see if my lack of video editing skills can make that happen.

Wow the safety crew was pretty daring standing right next to the pavement

That is because he was taking pictures with his camera phone......

Yes... I was laughing the whole time... including the crash...

seamus · 07-06-2008, 04:12 PM

It took me about 10 seconds to get to that point and he was laughing so hard he forgot to wave the yellow until I was almost there.

some still frames: No action shots but still pretty funny!
