Maybe next time I'll get you I hit my personal best a 1'41" during the race after I passed the blue R1 to catch back up to you.

    i kept looking back at the end of the straight and saw that i had some breathing room so i started to back off in the turns to keep from sliding out on my crap tires. Then i watched the video and saw how close you were in the turns and realized i didnt have as much breathing room as i initially thought.
    I hit my personal best of a 1'41" too but it was during practice on friday. We should all get together for some track days before the next pueblo race.

    GNGSXR, I was the guy that ran into you on A Bluffs last week. I saw you on the grid during one of the Am races, but didn't get a chance to talk to you. Looks like you did well this weekend. Good job man.

    Thanks to Dirk, Doug, and Jay for letting me pit by them, and steal an air gauge for a bit. I had more fun racing this weekend than I have had in a long time.

    Man that wreck in T4 was gnarly, especially from about 2 feet away. And Douggie Bobby is too damn fast for his own good, couldn't even let me think I had a chance for a couple of laps.

    Jay, you need to start dicing in AmO. You will break that 1:40 time quick if you do, even with stock suspension.

    T6? Thats a ballsy passing zone.

    Anything of ours you ever need is yours. Yeah, I can understand why you had such a good time. Didn't you take second in Open Supersport?

    Yeah, if Dirk decides to race Sportsman in Hastings, then I will sign up for AM-O there, or else it will have to wait until the next Pueblo day. Funny how I am running 1:40's for my best personal time at Hastings and Pueblo.

    Congrats on your finish in AM-O though, that's a feat in itself!!!

    I had an awesome weekend! The motor thing sucks but that was my fault!

    I finished 2nd in MW SS behind Ricky Orlando and beat my previous best lap time at Pueblo which was 1:35.8. Chasing Ricky on my Gsxr 600 i did my best of a 1:34.6 and in that race my slowest lap was still better then 1:35.8

    I rode Jeff Browns back up R6 and ended up winning MW endurance after Charles Greenwood had bike issues. I think I was under my lap time on his bike as well.

    HW endurance i rode my friend Mike Yoders 07 R6 to forth place. I also did a few laps in ROR O on his Ducati 996 for fun.

    In ROR U I rode Brian Destaracs 08 ZX6r to 13th place after running of the track in turn one.

    All in all i had one of my best weekends of racing. Jumping from bike to bike and being able to do well was alot of fun.

    Again congrats to all the new and old CSC racers!
    No doubt about the future, No regrets about the past!

    Dude, I have no idea how you ride back-to-back endurance races. I had to lay on the tank for about 5 minutes when I got back from HW endurance. I was wondering why my fastest lap in endurance was the last one and I think I just figured it out: I wanted to get off that damn bike!

    Congrats again on an awesome weekend of riding!

    Yeah, I was wayyyy in the back on the 13th row 2nd wave. I think I finished 23rd in that one. I think that's when I saw you, weren't you gridded back there too?

    Hey, check it out! John caught us in both in one shot......pretty cool. (click link)

    i was in the 12th row left side. I knew i was chasing you down on the last 2 laps. my friends got some good video of our last two laps. I was able to get right behind you after the straight away into turn 1 but you kept putting the distance on me in the turns.
    that is a pretty cool shot.
