Ride safe ya bastids. :)

Ok...just got done resizing some pics...mad props to the photographers for makin me look good, lol. Now...about VIR...was signed up to do South course on Sunday and North on Monday. Unfortunatly it rained on Sunday and I decided to take full advantage of the EFP(Event Fee Protection) and cancel the day. North course is pretty bad ass...nice elevation changes...long high speed strait with a kink...and smooth as hell...providing you stay on the line(I'm gettin to that in a sec.) Being I had never been there before, I took the morning sessions a little easy...followed Julie(TPM Coach) to learn the line...get to know the track...by the 4th session I was able to turn it up some. During the 4th session I was trying something a little differentheadding into the roller coaster. Wanted to try going thru in a higher gear to carry more speed...this was prven to be very effective but almost costly. As I was heading into the roller coaster...I'm carrying some nice speed...but something happened and I turned a tad late, cause me to run a little wide...which was no problem, but the smooth part of the track is on the line...2 feet out and bumpy. Feel the front end start to tuck and slide...dragging my knee and foot and the back of the lower fairing giving me the "Oh shit" factor. I said hell with this and stayed on the throttle...pushed the bar forward to regain countersteering and pushed myself up with my knee saving what could of been a nice lowside...I almost wanted to pit in but said no, just cruise round, get back in it. Then after lunch it was go time...Hooked up a few hot laps with I Ride(Rob)...made a few nice passes...that was awesome...all in all it was an awesome time...I really like VIR...but still isn't in my top 3 favs...maybe it'll take a couple more times to change my mind...we'll see.

Qetesh also stepped it up nice as well...her goal of the day was to keep up with Rita(friend of ours) and towards the afternoon she was able to do just that...proud to see her step it up like that :banmac:
