    After a seven hour sprint across the deserts and hills of southern and central California, I abruptly found myself at home among friends. Moments before they were total strangers, but just then, sitting around a campfire with a beer in my hand, I realized that we had essentially known each other for many years. Stories were exchanged, arguments joined, and jokes were told as if it were the reunion of a long-separated family.

    Perhaps it was. I was at Laguna Seca, an unlikely race course nestled into the hills near Monterey. During one weekend every summer, the otherwise tranquil and picturesque nature reserve explodes into three days of power and pageantry known as the Red Bull U.S. Grand Prix.

    Race Report MRA Round 3 - HPR - Race Reports

    Publish Date: June 16, 2010, 1:33 am



    Wow. What a weekend.

    I feel like if you squeezed me, I would leak water. It literally started raining when I drove out to the track on Friday and did not stop until 3PM on Sunday.

    The weekend was crazy from the get go. My buddy I always pit with got a DUI on Wednesday and was in jail until Friday. So I had no way to contact him or find out what happened. I just knew I needed his generator so I called his roomate and went and picked it up.

    So I load the... Read More Read More


    Race Report MRA round 1 - HPR - Race Reports

    Publish Date: May 4, 2010, 11:12 am



    My first race report!

    I used to read everybody else's reports and get jealous that I couldn't do the same. Now I can join the ranks of race reporters!

    Unfortunately I had to work on Friday so I had to wait until after 5:00pm to head out to the track. From my previous threads you might have heard that the weather was going to be crappy. Well it wasn't! The racing gods gave us sunshine and a few clouds until the last race on Sunday. The very minute the last race was over, it started... Read More Read More


    WSMC Round 2 @ Streets - Race Reports

    Publish Date: February 25, 2010, 12:28 pm



    When WSMC announced they were adding rounds at the Streets of Willow for 2010 my eyes lit up instantly. I made a quick call to Andy over at West Coast GP Cycles and said "Dude, you gotta let me race the 450 again…" Andy of course laughed at this, and said "ITS ON!!" This was several ...

    Re: Sete Gibernau - The History

    I was a fan.
    It's too bad Rossi cursed him... Sete was the only one who gave Rossi a run for his money during the early 2000's.

    I never liked him, but it would have been nice to see him be able to stick with it for a few more years.

    Nice find, imo sete did more then his fair share in reigniting spains interest in motogp.

    Re: Any of you ever used plasti dip?

    Seems like everyone on the Tacoma forums use it for everything from blacking out emblems to wheels, etc. Seems to work fine. As for the cracking, most people said you can just touch it up like bed...

    Re: Any of you ever used plasti dip?

    I've put it on the wheels of my 4Runner, had it there for over a year now not any issues at all. It's held up surprisingly well going down trails and through water crossings.
