geeeeez ARROW you have the nicest things to say

yeah we all have our personalities to contend with but without a doubt it has been NEIL'S sole efforts that have kept this thing alive.

get over it and participate once again- I am sure your presence is missed by many
especially those who have benefited and grown as a result of your knowledge and experience.

coming from the Jerk who did not know any better in trying to slow everyone down on the track at an event some years ago when someone whiped out and you read my cautionary inexperienced effort as a knowing racers sign to exit the track!!!!!

I'm going to miss the best show in town too. Chris is taking the CHP test so I have no one to race the bike and I have to get the skis ready for my son's first jet ski race on the 24th.
Good luck everyone and be safe.

Sorry, I will not for the reason of the disrespect I have gotten for my efforts to the sport. I will not support Neil's racing if that's what you want to call it. If I was that big of a ass I would have been man enough to apologize to the guy that has been supporting my racing and I would have put a stop to the bad apples and you know how you are. It's just a low blow to a guy that has put up the effort to help and not just helping one but I liked to help out everyone that needed or wanted to do better at the track. This was a fun thing for me to do and with the kids it only takes one or two farts to stink up the room. An apology to me my company and the kids how got protested every time they got of the track would have been the right thing to do. So until then, I will not.

Oh yeah, we are going to do a Racer Clinic track walk later on Friday with some racecraft, lines, braking points and race tips from Nashmoto and Scotto for new racers and not so new racers.
That's a great idea!! (^)

In past races there have been many situations where new racers who don't know how to properly carve a smooth fast line through a turn, ended up cutting off the faster racers.

If you are into flying as smooth as silk and fast as lightening around the track......pay attention to Nashmoto!

Just a few words to the wise ;)

Sorry Arrow I do not know the ins and outs of what occurred. what I do know is that you no longer participate and that is a shame. I know how you schooled so many participants.

I would hope that those that you referred to would recognize it is time to man up and make the long overdue apologies or whatever and get on with what may be a resurgence in motored bike races and activity in the area.

Saw some entries on the motorbicycling facebook and it looks like a great weekend is ahead
everyone ride safe and have lots of fun....
Post alot so all can enjoy that which they are unable to attend

I followed the action on several facebooks DTM, Ronny Luke, and C2C from start to finish and I imagine Andy #59 will post on the track footage and others as well as the week unfolds.

Sure looks like everyone had a great time. thanks for the thrills

congrats Neil
