But crashed out of the third one pretty good......hey? where am I? What corner is that?.....later...still sitting there thinking to myself...."I wonder how I got here?....."....Nichole is not going to be happy about this".....hahahahah so much fun...bike landed upside down with wheels spinning<img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/wink.gif ALT=";)"> Not too much damage though...it was my buddy who dropped the bike off the trailer that messed up my rear set and brake lines! All in all though pretty damn good times....I was doing pretty good...got third place in the "school" race out of 8, saw my first checkered flag (whew!), and then did a fun 30 foot endo off the track.....there's a nasty seam in turn 5 that catches you on certain lines...anyways, lost the rear, tried to catch it, into a minor tank slapper...straightened it out enough, but I was at the edge of the track still going 30-40mph....hmmmm says I...BAIL!! Jumped off, the bike endoed...I flew 30' and landed on my noggin....it was the last race so just went home then....but I was doing pretty good...I wasn't losing times to the riders in front of me (just a novice GTU race), and was in fact making up some time on them when I wrecked. I'm getting the edge of my tires pretty good, just need a lot of work on body positioning.... oh yeah, and first time with the GP shift pattern...that's a little bit of a learning curve...2nd to 3rd NOT 1st I SAID!!! slows down the hairs pins quite a bit!! hahahahaaa Anyways, I had a blast<img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/wink.gif ALT=";)"> Next race day in a month<img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/wink.gif ALT=";)"> , but I'll try hitting up the track day in a few weeks to get some track time...prolly the only thing that'll help me<img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/wink.gif ALT=";)"> My little SV is great...strong puller out of corners...pretty good on starts too, I'm always out at the front (until the gsxr1000 pulls by me into turn 1!). ALOT easier to handle in the corners than the fzr1000...the fizzer I was just hanging on for the ride in the corners, now I can actually ride the bike....still got the fizzer for cruisin the street though<img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/smile.gif ALT=":)"> Some pics: #987 <a href="http://www.eventpictures.com/app/event/ ...  <a href="http://www.eventpictures.com/app/event/ ...  <a href="http://www.eventpictures.com/app/event/ ...  and this one is nice: <a href="http://www.eventpictures.com/app/event/ ...
