VIR N. 11/13

[yetidave]

TPM's last event of the season. Anyone going? I'll be there on the new bike trying not to kill myself.

[Qetesh]

And what new bike would that be?

[ffejtable]

I'd love to go, but I cant justify the drive for 1 trackday, on a workday...

[Chris]

No matter how you look at it,vir is wearth the drive.Dave are you going alone?I may be looking for someone to share a ride.

[tommymac]

I will be heading down there too, I need to finish the season on a better note than what I did at pocono. I will be heading down the Jimmy jude and ray. I will likley have trailer space since ant and another friend couldnt go. The lower gas prices (and I scored a 50n dollar gas card from my bank) will ease the blow a little bit but its still kinda pricey.

[rxspd]

Whos sleeping where ?? What hotel is everyone staying at??

[Cakes206]

Whos sleeping where ?? What hotel is everyone staying at??

Holiday Inn Express, TPM rate $62 a night.

[AfricanBootyScratcher]

I just got a room at the hospitality suits at pit in, $79. Plus we got the funmover, so that can now be parked in the paddock overnight

[yetidave]

I'm staying at the lodge at VIR. That place rocks. I'll get there early enough on Sunday to sit out on the balcony, drink a beer, and watch the Porsche homo's do laps around the full course. ;)

[yetidave]

Anyone up for a death race on the Karts Sunday night? The object is not to win, the object is to survive. :roflmao:

[High_Revs_17]

You might be faster on that than some of the white group rookies. :lol:

[AfricanBootyScratcher]

We started getting bikes together at work this afternoon, all our first timers are so excited that's all they've been talking about for days at work. Hell we're all excited!

[AfricanBootyScratcher]

4 bikes loaded on the funmover, now gotta load 9 more in the trailer and the Monmouth Cycles crew is ready to roll
when you see the rig in the paddock, make sure to come by and say hi

[lateapex]

Thanks Omar and Michele for lunch. The rig and trailer are impresive and you got a great group of riders with you.

I was a great day. Weather was perfect, who would have thought it would be in the 60's in Novemeber at VIR. Perfect ending to a great season.

good times

FYI...i was playing a game that one lap.... to see how many turns we could go through side by side. :roflmao: that was fun:ride:

[AfricanBootyScratcher]

Very good times were had. We couldn't have asked for better weather. Just kinda sad to end the season and hibernate.
Sucks that stiffy crashed out of second in the race. BTW, the guy that won is an AMA superbike racer. I heard he's the guy who got into it with Yates at Daytona a few years back.
No prob Geo, glad you could come enjoy with us!
That was funny Rob, had me cracking up in my helmet. I was trying to reach out and do the super cool post race slap hands as we were going up the hill but you kept me hanging you bastard! So then I thought of hitting your kill switch then realised we were in white and there were guys behind us that may not appreciate that. :lol:

Is it March yet?

[lateapex]

I saw you the whole time and it was fun. I never knew we could ride side by side through 4, 5 and 6. I would not recommend it at race pace.

BTW Rob I chased you in one blue session but never got you. Sliding the rear every lap in the Hogpen and using the curb as a bumper to stop the slide and get extra traction.

Was tha tthe guy yates dropkicked for running him off the track or something?

Tom

[I Ride]

that wasnt him. the guy who yates kicked was anthony fania. I dont think the guy that won the race races AMA. a Guy i pitted with races Wera expert, and he knows him as a wera racer. the bike he was on is Lee Acrees (ama superbike racer) which he just bought....still had "Acree" on the shield ..probbly causing the confusion. sure he was fast, but the pace he was running was 3-4 seconds off even qualifying for a superbike race. if you guys never been....you must get down there to watch those guys rip it up. seeing Mladin drop consistant 24's is a site.

That at the end of the day when Gallo had a shit fit when the coaches(and Glen) came in?

Definitely good times, great weather, great people. Used the first session to shake out the cobbwebs, after that it was all good. Definitely made up some time in other areas than in past events. Had two close calls during the day, had one guy buzz past me and the coach in front of me going down the roller coaster under a red flag that was put out 2 stations prior(need to pay closer attn) and had some dude pass up under me at the kink in the front strait at full throttle...not very smart either. All in all was a great ending to a great season.

I think my taste buds are still seized up from Buffalo Wild Wings. Theres also a new dance called the "Jimmy Shuffle"...and damn those 16oz. glasses :drink: :lol: Oh and that Funmover that Monmouth Cycles has is pretty :pimp: :drool:

The ride there and back definitely sux for one day...thanks again Gino for caravaning.

[lateapex]

nice....i didnt know you were back there i woulda liked to play around. i gotta start going fast enough to slide around !


I was trying to do the suprise attack. I was silding because I had to get on the throttle so soon because I didn't want to let you get away on the front straight. I'd close on you into T1 (brembo master helped there) but you'd walk me in 3 and I'd be close in 4,5,6,6a and through Stevie Wonder. I was real close going into 7 and we'd run even up the hill. You'd gap me into the top of the coaster. Then we'd run even down the hill. I'd slow up going into the Hogpen to get the drive out.

[AfricanBootyScratcher]

nope, it was earlier.
I heard there was some something going on at the end of the day, but I missed it

It might have been late in the day, I don't remember. T1 was not fun but there was decent traction though it but to be safe I was always to the inside of it in the blue group.

Cakes, what was Gallo mad about?

Whatever it was, you could hear him clear cross the paddock, lol.

[yetidave]

Cakes, what was Gallo mad about?

Julie came in just before the shit hit the fan and said that it was a free for all in that white session, then Glen and 3-4 other coaches rolled in followed closely by Gallo. Gallo went berserk on them, that's the first time I've seen Dave rip anyone like that. I just stood there watching with my chin on the ground. Even Glen was just looking at his shoes while Dave went off. I guess they were making passes on members that Dave thought were "questionable".

[GinoE]

thank YOU joe for leading the entire 1100+ miles :thumbup:

(i must have pissed for 15mins when i got home :roflmao: )

[yetidave]

It was a really fun day btw. I put 300 miles on the GSXR. That bike is sooooo much better than I am.
I had a fun session with Ralph. The sun was at our backs goin into one and I could see his shadow to my left as I started to throw it in. He got me at the exit and I chased him for a couple of laps before they threw the checkers.
I'm doing Jennings a couple of times this winter to tide me over 'til spring. Anyone want to go?

OK. Gallo is 100% right. I hope Glen was training them.

Every group but two, and I raced.

[CBRBob]

The last Sat at BeaveRun I did like 380mi. The Sun I did like 200.
People were wondering who brought my trailer to the Beav, since I was never there with it!

[pillaka]

Damn most i ever did is 320 miles in 10-2 at VIR north. The important part is that I beat Omar. :)

After getting ejected coming out of turn 8 doing around 120 mph, I figured I lucked out once again in not getting some serious injury. My back, right shoulder, and neck are all still sore, but not as bad as yesterday. I got a nice bruise on my left heel, most of my walking at work today was hobbling around since I can't put pressure on it without some hurtin. Still trying to figure out how it all happened. After the crash my lap timer stopped working, got it fixed today, there are connectors inside, which both got yanked inside from the lap timer and the reciever, plugged it in, good to go! Lap 2 was a 1:36.89..... Damn

hey.....didnt know you were on here. i was watching the race on Monday wishing I was out there. we had some good races in summit last time


I did a doubletake on your town.....you need to lose the E in the name....thatd be cool :ride:

[lateapex]

Word for Daffy is that there might be more classes next year for the TPM races. I hope they follow the CCS and WERA classes just so there will be less confusion. No sense in inventing new classes when these are pretty fair and work well.
