    Cool thanks.
    Had a blast on Sunday. Fury Tom and I had a really good race in superstock C. That might've been the most fun I've ever had a motorcycle. Superstock B still had a good time but blew the start and then caught a false neutral between one and two and everybody was gone. Ran my ass off just to not be last. Can't wait till May.

    had a great first weekend, won my mock race :D battled hard and was second to Rob Heiser in senior middleweight superbike, both days.

    my best race was Sunday's superbike c, I finished 4 th out of 9 behind gabe miller, and Jeremy K (apex 675r's) and another racer. during that 8 lap race I ran 7 out of 8 laps in the 1:26 range, with a personal best on lap 6 of 1:26.041. just a tick from being in the 1:25 range.

    I told you guys if you want to shave a couple seconds off your lap times go racing.
    So what was your old fastest lap vs your new fastest laps?

    Good to see all you newbies out representing stt.:thumb::rawk:

    1:28.34 was my best ever at grattan with STT before this weekend, and that was over a year ago.

    Saturday 1:27.55 with wera (rob heiser, pushed me to this fast lap). sunday I ran the 1:26.041 chasing and passing rob, in the sbkC race.

    Nice job Eric! So much for not racing! Track was good for some quick laps! I improved my lap time a bit too! :)
    I had a lot of fun with T_Town_Tom battling in his first ever race! He did a great job and was damn quick!

    Old best 7-6-14 = 1:27.86
    New best 1:27.09

    And that will have to do for Grattan this year. I won't make it back to Grattan again this year. That's a 4 second improvement from the end of last year. :wheel:

    I have one more weekend at ACC in September
