Good riding with you.

Thanks hammer, I am sure that will be greatly appreciated when mom sees that.

Nice vid. I'll just have to make sure that he doesn't watch it in Fast forward and laps us all next year.

That is/was my first successful video. Well, one I finished without cursing at the screen and throwing shit and yelling at the computer telling it how stupid it is.

Decker · 07-04-2008, 09:25 PM

Well... Near as I can figure it looks like about a 2 minute and 30 second lap.... Damn... I wish someone had told me that there were more than 3 gears........ Thanx again.......

Jetbdude · 07-04-2008, 09:45 PM

LOL about the 3rd gear. It is s start, the more you go around the more comfortable you get with the track.

Decker · 07-04-2008, 10:06 PM

I still think I could have beaten that time with the Blue Machine......

bwhip · 07-04-2008, 11:02 PM

nhfirefighter13 and TAZ took some incredible photos, as always. Thanks so much, guys!

I wish I had my proper leathers and helmet, which are more photogenic - next time!

Here are some of my favorites:

ND4SPD · 07-05-2008, 01:41 AM

Thanks, my friends.

No, that was just the RV mileage. I don't even want to tally the fuel receipts

. Now I have about 3,264,112 bugs to clean off the front of that thing.

Still smiling from all the fun we had, so it doesn't matter.

Jetbdude · 07-05-2008, 10:07 AM

GREAT pictures Firefly! Keep them comming!

Wow, glad you're home safe Bwhip! what a ride!

I can't believe you were back last night
