Monday Morning Grind
My dad and I got back from the dyno last night, after James had finished freshening up the motor. We didn't end up with any more horsepower (actually a touch less), but given the bike has new gaskets and rings, breaking the motor in on the track may help free up a bit more there. James also tried some different cam timing, which may or ...

Monday Morning Grind
Gina and I spent Saturday at Richard Harris' place, as he had people over for a BBQ, some gaming, a bonfire and camping. Strangely enough, this was actually Gina's and my first time camping together. We pulled out the tent from my parent's house that my brother and I used as kids. I thought something surely would be missing or broken after all the years ...

Monday Morning Grind
My dad and I went to Grattan yesterday to watch the WERA/AMA National races. I had thought last year's record breaking times were a fluke. That was definitely not the case. Rob Jensen further dropped the lap record on a 600 down to a 1:18.930, significantly bettering Brent's (Bennett) record last year of a 1:19.589. The quality of riders present was ...

I Never Liked Buying Bottled Water ..
I found an article today about bottled water. It said that if we paid as much for tap water as we do for the water we buy at Costco (or any other store selling water in such containers), that most people would have a monthly water bill of over $9,000... and now I like buying bottled water even less.

Quote of the Day
Even in practice sessions at Utah, after I got the checkered flag, that whole lap coming into the pits I was going as hard as I could, trying to find stuff with me and the bike. That's how it's gotta be from here on out. We've been working on a lot of stuff -- everything, really. We're not satisfied because we know every little improvement ...

Two-Day STT Mid-Ohio A Success
Just got back from Mid-O last night. I think we sorted out the tire wear issues, which is a big step and the main reason for going to Mid-O in the first place. Some clicks here and there, plus some tire pressure changes and we had a new rear tire that looked great after three hard sessions on it. We now have some minor handling issues to ...
