Depends on which bike I end up bringing for me. Will be either 2 or 459, or both...

Correct me if I am wrong.

Numbers allow for easier identification by corner workers. That way if someone is acting like a tail (not likely with this event, thankfully) or has something wrong on the bike (loose part or OIL ) the corner workers can identify the bike quicker and radio ahead. This would also apply if they 'thought' they saw something and want the next station to check it. Thus even at a track day that does not require them it helps those helping us do a better job of helping us

Slowly... I just spent 3 weeks away from home for work and now I am trying to get things caught up. I have a couple of peices rough sanded, but I think/know that I still have a LOT of work ahead of me.

I am still waiting for some spacers too so that has me pacing, but other than that, an oil change and a coolant flush(well watterwetter flush) I;'ll be back out on it. Been breaking in my new boots to and I have to say I like them a LOT more already.

I forgot to mention that I will likely be running "00" on the motard too(my other hockey #)

Makes sense - I'll comply.

Ah yes, one of the few advantages of owning a big air-cooled lump - No more messing with coolant prior to trackdays.

I am VERY jealous of that, I HATE flushing coolant, it is just a pain, no matter how you do it... and I have 2-3 bikes to do yet.

I also wanted 41. Do I at least get dibs for signing up first?

Is this turtle tossing contest PETA approved?

Don't think is PETA approved, correct me if I'm wrong, but I am positive if it hits you it'll be PITA guaranteed.
