Am signed up for Bargy May 2nd though.

VERY COOL! I will be there and hope to refresh myself and maybe gain insight into Barber at the same time.

Even better. Be sure he does the safety prep that Bargy requires

Minimal that YOU should already have. Did you not have to do it before? Just Oil cap, drain plug and filter. You can get kits otherwise it is a few hours tops effort.

Not like he is demanding full WERA spec (though I am considering starting the RC just in case I ever get fast enough to take last :-)

Fabulous day only one red flag and I only saw one off track in Intermediate

Warmer than predicted though the wind picked up a bit in the afternoon and was interesting coming down the back straight into the teeth of it.

Did not meet my goal but was close. 1:50.6 in the morning followed by a session of 1.52 average with a 1:51.07. My goal is 40's. Though I am tired and still not breathing at 100% so....

Tomorrow is supposed to be colder though.

Oh and the AMA is there next weekend so there was a couple of guys running "A" that are getting ready for next week. Also the house of Frenchie is up (pictures when I get home)

Well Sunday was a colder day with gusting winds that made the back straight interesting at times. Also the Novice group was doing continual moon shots out of turn #5 Lots of highsides there and onto the straight. Strangely the Intermediate group had one red all weekend and on highside (the red). I only saw 3 people off the track and one was bike trouble (same guy twice). Overall the group was pretty controlled and predictable with only one weaver

I didn't get to my 40's running lots of 1:51-3 on Sunday until I cooked off the BT002ST (last session it start to slide a bit more). Of course I did some 1:51's in that session also so that might have been part of it.

Now for some pics. Morning shots before people invaded sheep corner. With some of "the house Frenchie built"

Some of the track maintenence and Novice's first lap.

More of House of Frenchie, track surroundings, and pro stuff invading Baa-rber. As an aside Team Jordan was at Dunlop today, not sure how much it will help as it was cold.

You do know you could have bought a cinder block cheaper than that Honda generator to just hold down the ez up right?

Another interesting tidbit. The head of NESBA south was in attendance as a welcome guest/rider. I thought I recognized him at the riders meeting but just shrugged it off. Then during the meeting Mark Sheldon welcomed him. Kind of cool actually. Maybe they can learn from each other and improve. Plus I am sure he got some track time he seldom gets at a NESBA event

Just so long as STT doesn't buy them, too, I'm good.
