Only 74* on sat May 6th which is phenomenal for Willow Springs!
I had to sacrifice 10 virgins to the weather and race gods to get those temps!

Neil,

I'm probably not gonna make this one, either.

My china bike is still full of dirt from crashing it into the Grange's sand pit, the clutch shaft is locked up, and I don't have time to fix it.

And I'm broke.

Seeing that you are one of the original racers from 2011 and
it's our 6 Year Anniversary I will give you a free race if you come.

I have a few clutch shafts too as we discussed.

Tempting. If I get some time to tear my bike apart, I'll take you up on that. Thanks...

I'm not doing anything this weekend so I'm going to see if Dean wants to go. My bike has been ready. I'll probably cruise the track unless my inner demons take over.

Dean will like the exceptionally cool temps on sat May 6th. Perfect
racing weather.

Don't be a puss, put your leathers on and race!
First time for you racing clockwise.

That Willow Springs track look sucky! Soo Mickey Mouse, the layout........ but ya'll have fun though, I'm sure the experience of meeting other riders out there will make up for it.

I like Willow better than Grange because of the access.
Neil, I spoke with Dean today and we will be leaving at 3am Friday night so count me in!

Hey Neil, since I haven't raced in like forever....can I race the beginner class?

Awesome! gates probably open at 6am Sat. morning.
Get you on the track at 7am!

Gate locks at 10 pm Friday night or maybe later?

I like both Grange and Willow,
they are different like 2 strokes and 4 strokes.

Hey Potato,

I don't think I have ever posted anything negative on this forum, but I find this post annoying. Have you ever been to the Willow Springs kart track? I find it disrespectful to bad mouth the venue of a racing event that you seem to have no intention of attending.

Is the Willow Springs kart track in bad shape? Yes, it has a lot of cracks, it's smallish, and there is not a lot of room to pass, but you know what?, I love it just the same, gosh darn it!

Other than Missouri, these two tracks (Grange & Willow Springs) in So Cal are the only motorized bicycle racing that I know of happening in the United States, so I am extremely grateful to Neil Senior. I am also grateful for this track and this opportunity to test my bike and my riding skills on a closed course.

Sorry to rant, but you typing negative comments about a super cool racing event puts a bad taste in my mouth.

I do understand that everyone is entitled to their own opinion, so I will cease complaining about yours.

See you in the pits ya'll, DTM tho,

Gilbert

Gilbert--
you are such a gentleman

Hey Potato shut the f***k up-- you have no idea just how much fun you will be missing out on by not being at Willow friday night -camp out and then ride- race -spectate on saturday

BETTER OFF YOU WILL NOT BE THERE!!!!

The last time I was at Willow, the Porsches were racing on the big track. It was fun racing my bike, checking out the cars in the pits then watching the cars race.
