[Hoopty]

Damn, missed it by a year! :cry: :lol: Seriously though, this would be a good thing for anyone looking to get better! :rock: Bertha? Rocky? Ralph? :lol:

[Dr. Joe Siphek]

me...if i had a race bike and a liscence.

[Hoopty]

:loser: So get one! :slap:

[Dr. Joe Siphek]

so give me yours!!!

[Hoopty]

I will give you my CBR for $1000! :321: You can't race much cheaper than that!

[Anonymous]

Yup. His CBR is a beat to hell and back track whore, but it's a cheap way to get started. I'd check the frame out on it first though. ;)

[Hoopty]

Those steel F3 frames are pretty idestructable. Ask anyone who has raced them before. :up: TONS of parts available, and cheap too, since it's not in real high demand anymore.

[Anonymous]

Indestructable yeah, I'm just saying it'd be cheap to have Tony Martin take a look at it and verify it for straightness, and possibly correct it. I had to do that with my GSXR when I bought it. IMO it's worth the peace of mind knowing everything lines up perfect.

[Hoopty]

Not for me! LOL Ride it like you stole it! ;) How "cheap" is that, anyway?

[ebazyl]

Yeah, I tried to destoy an F2 frame in turn 1 in La Juanta. Bitch would not break. :banghead: Plus frame straitness is over-rated. I mean it is going to turn better to one side anyways, what wrong with that?

[Anonymous]

Not for me! LOL Ride it like you stole it! ;) How "cheap" is that, anyway?

I want to say in the $2-300 range. MV, do you remember? I also saw $150 in there somewhere but I don't think that was for all of it.

Loopster, if you're gonna do it now is the time. You have to strip a lot off the bike. Get that done before you reassemble it all for the season.

[Jenny]

Hmm, I could be adopted!!! :P

But I don't know if I wanna race every race.... Hmmmmm.

[RSVR4aCowboy]

Mark and Mike are great guys and fast racers :up: :up: Two of the nicest guys I've met in the MRA. Good opportunity for someone!

[BATMAN]

Holy crap. I am interested and I bet Bluedevil might be too. I will call him tomorrow. :D

[BlueDevil]

What are the details of this program?

[Ray-Ray]

I'd imagine that they are looking for a brand new novice racers....You know a racer they could help get started...... Guys that are sandbagging in the novice classes don't count!! :lol:

[BlueDevil]

A member of our team is just starting this year........

[Ray-Ray]

I'm just giving you a hard time for staying a novice.....

[BlueDevil]

:321:

:lol:

$150 to look at it... and then depending on the condition of the frame Tony adjusts for his time spent.

Tell him Mike Vigil MRA #33 sent you

[jontflesh]

Hmmmmmmmmm

[Devil954]

Whats up D. you going for the NGTU & GTO championship :lol: I have a question maybe Glenn or Ralph could answer how many new riders will come on with the MRA this year or how many do you expect to see ? is there an average number per season or does it vary alot from year to year ?

[Anonymous]

It can vary, we anticipate a good number of newbies just because word is getting out through places like CSC and a lot of sportbike riders are trying it out. I don't have any real numbers as to last year or the years previous though.

Yes, I would be very interested in this. I have an '04 R6, so it would race in the 6000cc class, but not the vintage class, but rather the full on class.
Please contact me:

Look forward to hearing from you.
Thanks,

Bill Alexander (ba_r1)

P.S. I have an '04 R1 too, but lets stay realistic.

Uhh, homey they're not reading this, that was just a cross post from the MRA forum. Also, if you're asking for people to support your racing efforts, take the time to call them first. Just a thought. ;)

[ba_r1]

Yes, I realize that now, but thank you for the clarification.

And, yes that certainly would be a DAMN BIG BIKE ! (6000cc class).
That was obviously a typo. I certainly didn't mean to set off any sort of a size competition/penis envy thing. (Thats why I didn't make any reference to my 80" male member.)

Thanks for both clarifications.

[Polar X]

ah hell, 6' 6" aint that tall 8) :D
