plans for beaver run 9/22-23 pics added
 

So what are everyones plans for getting out there on friday. I know jimmy and a few guys wont be at the motel 6 this time so I was wondering who would be. I am planning on leaving NYC around 8 or 9, and am assuming I will meet up withthe guys at the track to drop our stuff off and claim a few spots.

TOM

Dunno if I have to work Fri yet so when I get there is up in the air but I have resvs. at the 6.

Ewa and I will be there on friday evening. Not sure what time yet. We are leaving the city around 2pm.

Whos Ewa? Our plan is to unload at the track first then head to the hotel. Give me a call when youre on your way. I am hoping to be at the track somewhere around 5 or 6.

Tom

I'm going to pocono, then leaving around 2pm. Were staying at the HIE in cranberry.

And we're eating biscuits and SAUSAGE GRAVY every morning. Then we're wafting the smell over Ralph's head.

my plans are to stay in jersey

Why..what do you have to do?

Mine too racing on sunday! helmet cam footage to come..please stand by :)

My wife. We will be at the track later, 9pm maybe?

Me and Kevin are leaving Friday about 7am, but he says lets leave at 9am. So to be honest I'm going to say we may leave at 10am lol

my plan: wake up early Saturday, go to work, do an oil change before the shop opens, load up, work all day, meet Michelle after work, drive to beaver valley motor inn, get no sleep, go to the track Sunday morning, ride all, pack up again, drive home, go back to work Monday.

Don't forget about that predator pussy!

Nice paul.Good to meet you.

Here you go:

EXCELLENT weekend...it just keeps getting better and better. Long story short, perfect weather, got to our usual spot, got about 12 text msgs to hold spots, LOL. Next morning, perfect weather again, go out for the first session and I was a mess, literally. Having the gix on Beaver for the first time, most of my reference points were all off. Basically had to relearn the track again. On top of that, my heel kept hitting the exhaust bracket, so that was another thing to throw off my concentration...and to top it all off 1/2 way thru the session I notice my shift lever getting lower and lower...to the point where I couldn't reach down to shift and I was stuck in 3rd gear at the fastest part of the track :doh: Pit in, loose shift rod cause the lever to back out...brought it back up, made tight, good to go. Second session was better, still trying to understand how the gix is handling the Beav...3rd session we really bonded and started picking up the pace even more. Forgot what session it was but almost got kicked and ran off the track by someone who pulled a knucklehead move, guy apexes 10 kinda slow and then decides he wants to pit in...problem with this is I was making my move around the outside of a right hand turn with pit in on the left...guy puts his leg in the air almost takin out my head...yea so that almost got ugly. Anywho...more riding, I had dropped another second from the last time there...but I was stuck...couldn't get out of the :08's. Got a tip from CBRBob and Chris, by the last session Sunday I got into the :07's, dropping 2 more seconds from August. All in all I'm pleased with everything...even the exhaust bracket after Chris tweaked it so my heel would stop hitting it, lol...thanks man. I really had an awesome time with everyone too...I'd list everyone's names but I'd be here a while...thanks again everyone :cheers:

Pic1 - T2
Pic2 - Me/CBRBob T10.
Pic3 - Cool pic...check the heat from the exhaust.
Pic4 - Chris on the hunt, lol.
Pic5 - SBA train, me/Jimmy/Ant nice riding tight, lol.

Great, thanks Paul!

Hmm think I am ripping a tear off from the visor, there were some big bugs out there!

Good weekend, kinda wish I didn't have my off track excursion sunday morning, but shit happens. Spent the morning fixing the bike, thanks everyone for givng me a hand. Despite reassembling my front end after the crash, something was still tweaked, so the bike had some headshake issues on the straights, and the front end got a little wobbly and unstable going into the turns. Still managed to win both the superbike and dash race and run laps in the 1:00 range. I was going to go for a :59, but better luck next year. Also did the supersport race, which was a whole lot of fun. Thanks john for lending me your bike. Started in 16th in the way back of the grid, got a good start and picked off some riders on the brakes. I had a good battle with andy on his r6, but he was feeling the pressure and riding very aggressive on the brakes, he wound up pulling a nice endo braking for T1 and went off track, I took his position with omar hot on my tail. Race was red flagged so I took 9th overall. My goal was to get top 10, and beat omar :). This was a special weekend for me, this weekend last year I pulled off my first race win ever, crazy how much I have improved in a year, looking foward to going to beaverun again. Good to see everyone.

looks like I missed a great weekend at the Beaver, next time for sure. Glad to see everyone had a good time.

looking great Joe, look for me next season on a 600....;) I may be shopping for an R6 for next season. Keeping the TZ and selling the TLR's. After renting an R6 at Pocono, I am convinced that a smaller bike is the ticket.
