    Default My weekend at Summit (WERA)

    YouTube - Summit WERA C Superstock 4/3
    C Superstock
    - finished 9th

    Also raced C Superbike where i got my ass handed to me but still eeked out an 11th.

    Best lap was a 1:29xx on street Pilot Powers.

    Overall not a bad weekend for the first time at this track. Accomplished all my goals and am very pleased with the results.

    Feels good to finally have it over and under your belt huh? I could tell you were stressing the last couple weeks. I'm assuming you had no trouble in tech with the bike?

    Edit: badass start btw.

    No Problem man. I do pretty awesome on the starts too, alot of times at grattan I'll be in 2nd or 3rd by turn 2, but I usually drop back to 5th or 6th by the end of the first lap. Just need to get a little faster all the way around.

    You coming to Grattan for any STT days? I will be there for most.

    i need to check the schedule. i'd like to make it up there for a wera race, so it'd be good to get a td in beforehand to learn the track.

    Friggin' sweet man, that was some good action! Boy does that bike ever sing... Looks like you've got most people cold on the brakes (and the start!), just gotta have a little more confidence in a couple sections. For your first time there though, that was badass!

    Congrats on your finishes natedogg!
    I was gonna go last weekend but wussed out at the last minute cuz of the weather. I didn't feel like racing in the sleet and rain on Saturday.

    Maybe I'll get to meet you at Nelson or beaver coming up.
