Ballast it up and come race in D. 2:29.9 would put you around the top 5 in class. You'd probably drop some more time just from the pressure of racing.

I agree, when racing dirt bikes, always plenty more faster during the race than practice but also I never gave a **** about equipment during the race (which you do during DE or just practice), I have to admit, that part scares me a bit...

Erik

Moroso in a couple of weeks with Goldcoast is perfect to finish those new Kuhmo's off. You know after a weekend of Moroso you can throw whatever tires you had away

Flying Finn

Unfortunately I can't make it there. I think December PBOC in Homestead will be next for me.

VERBOTN

Congrats on meeting your objective. I'll look for you and E. at the next homestead event

The "E" devil thinks he has a 2.20 in him at sebring. more mods E. more mods.

E, ga jij naar Sebring toe eind October met PBOC? Ik hoop daar naar toe te gaan om te racen voor de eerste keer. Als dat niet lukt dan kunnen we elkaar achterna volgen op de racebaan in DE.

Erik

Darren, ik geloof natuurlijk niet dat jij dat geschreven hebt. dat moet de vrouw geweest ziin. I don't have any mods except a lighter flywheel, but I'm gonna need some to keep up with you. I'm still waiting for a copy of those laps during Winterfest or the 48 hours when I did my record times. I don't think I'll be at Sebring at the end October since I will have Moroso first and the wife is about ready to pop with my offspring.

Christian, sorry I couldn't make it to your first event as organizer, family in town from out of the country etc etc. Hope to see you at Moroso

darrendeguire

You are correct! I have no skills in that area. I finally figured out how to convert my old recorder to a digital file so I will make you a cd and send it along. Congrats and best of luck on the baby. Is this your first? Christian did a great job as expected. The event went off without a hitch. I'm sure Citrus will be back to Sebring next year. I'm heading over to Holland in about a week. I'll be sure to drink a few cold ones (semi-cold) and eat french fries covered in mayo and onions. See you soon.

Flying Finn

Christian, thanks for organizing a great event, all went really well.

Darren & E, ei tuosta mitään selvää saa, puhukaa Englantia (=WTF? Speak English)!

Darren, don't make Erik put any mods in to that thing, he and the car are plenty fast already!
Erik, what kind of lap times you do in Sebring? Homestead?

Erik

mmmmm French Fries and Mayo....Bring me some Calve Frietsaus back from Holland. Yeah, it's the first but I don't mess around, so I'm having twins, boy and girl, family in a box in one shot. I tried for triplets, but I'm not as young as I used to be. I look forward to the CD, and you know I only car about those first 3 or 4 laps, not about the ones after you passed me :-))

Petu, I have no idea about my times at Homestead, I never time myself, just wait for other people to come up to me and tell me what the clocked me at :-). At Sebring, i usually do about 2:28's, at least that's what Wayne was clocking us at when he was my passenger. If I push I can do 2:26's but not very consistent. But Darren has video of me where we were doing 2:24's for about 3 or 4 laps chasing 3 cup cars, and I had Darren on my *** and I wasn't going to let him pass without earning it. I signed off on him for crying out loud, the student can't pass the teacher that quickly :-))

dank u voor de vriendelijke woordenut E& P. Also thank you to all that attended and gave support it was very much appreciated.

Not able to make Moroso but I should be around late in the year. Best wishes E, my girls enjoyed Kenny Loggin "return to pooh" very comforting.

Flying Finn

Erik, first of all, congrats!
Great to hear you have finally learned what to do between sheets...
Didn't know you're Dutch, I was in Brussles couple of months ago, those fries sure are good, damn I need to go to lunch, right now!

2.24 is really quick! When you're sandwidched between very fast cars & drivers, you tend to really push it, especially when it's your old student in your ***! I remember ending up pn the grass because I really didn't want to let couple of bastards like that by...
