I was browsing through some files on my computer and came across this pic of myself, taken early April in 05', it was my 7th trackday ever, 3rd of the season. Turn 5 at VIR North.



Later that day I locked up my front tire or bottomed out the forks under hard braking and crashed before going into turn 1.

Found some more pics and uploaded them.

The f4i in it's early days:



Post VIR North Crash, little banged up



In may I went to Pocono North on mother's day. Lowsided on the banking going approx 130 - 140 mph.





After a new suit, and lots of parts off ebay, I was ready to rock! Did a ghetto fix of the fiberglass and added fresh coat of primer.

This pic was taken at Grattan in June



Also I grattan I got the number #360, my friend Bill said that number suits me perfectly.



Another f4i action pic



In August I scored a deal on some race plastics on ebay, and some other misc stuff, did a rattle can paint job on the bike using my friend's silver/blk f4i as reference.



You can spot blinky underneath the tail!



Packed onto Brian's seadoo trailer about to head down to VIR.



On the way down to VIR... Only in VA



Beaverun in september 05, found out what happens when you lean to far and hit your peg on the ground



Later that day I was trying to hang with George



All day all I could run were times in the 1:05 range, last session I ran one lap - a 1:03.31. Finally started to feel like I was getting fast.



Ran one more day at pocono in october, did my first race. Then the water pump blew, over the winter the f4i was parted out.
