I had a great race weekend at round 3 of CVMA at Chuckwalla. I wasnt planning on racing, but thanks to John of H&W Racing talking me into it, I raced Amateur SuperSport Open and Amateur Formula Open on Saturday. The YouTube video below is of the Amateur SS race. Three guys crashed on the first lap so it was red flagged and restarted. As I rolled up to the grid my bike dies and I dont notice. I dont see it until the flag drops for experts. I get it started, but dont shift to first, believe me, a good race start is hard from neutral. I spend the whole race catching up, but I moved from 9th (last) to 3rd. The Formula race was much less entertaining. I started in 3rd, stayed in 3rd the whole race. I am pretty happy with two 3rd places as the first and second place guys are crazy fast. I also dropped my personal best lap time down to a 1:56.05 and was doing 1:56s all race. Much thanks to John Warkentin for the Bridgestone tires for motivating me and helping me with tools. Thanks to Tige Daane for the suspension help. Big thanks to Vortex, without the brand new tire warmers I would not have been able to race. Thanks to HotBodies and Sockguy, HyperKewl and Corransup and Ground Up Racing. Awesome weekend all around. Pictures coming soon too. youtu.be/Q4kVppk0BUQ
