I'm sick to my stomach. Everything I've been working toward just got pulled out from under me.
Not to mention the entire family of WSMC racers. Now what...
I guess WERA or AFM.
F@#$!!!

Heck, if I were working in our Fort Worth plant, CMRA is a perfect answer.

Plan, Focus, Execute!
AFM@Bwillow = 3/17-3/18
CVMA@Cwalla:3/10-3/11 (March could be a busy month for you!), 4/21-4/22, 5/26-5/27, 9/22-9/23, 10/20-10/21, 11/10-11/11
you are very fortunate to live here in SoCal with the great weather - growing up racing back east at Nelson Ledges - we had rain and rain dates - it taught me to be flexible with my plans...moving to the west coast in the 70s - we had the BLM to contend with in the Desert...again I learned to be flexible...in all the years I've been in manufacturing operations you always need to have a plan "B" if you want to be successful - don't give up due to this one speed bump ...if life was easy, I'd have a head full of hair! Chuckwalla is 4 weeks away...what are your plans?

WERA West. Chuckwalla is 45 min from the closest ER. As someone who has been in ICU 2 times in the past decade, this makes a difference.

Will have to miss WERA Vegas next weekend but will try and hit the reast of their season.

WSMCRA - Willow Springs MotorCycle Racing Association
I just bought all the domain name and will be setting up an LLC.
The track is just the track. It's the people, the tradition, the passion. I envision a racer owned and run organization. If there is enough interest. It will happen.
But first I've got the get the Crotchrocket/Higbee team to Daytona.

Keep at it Rob.
I'll keep sending y'all a little bit when I can.

Got laid off yesterday but tomorrow I start doing some contract work for NRHS.
They are about a mile from my house and I'll be working on Buells and Sportys!!

I start off honing cylinders for 1250 kits.
Hope it lasts a while, I really like Dan and Cille and y'all know how much I love Buells.

How is this working out for you?

A fat Sponsor

Daytona is a long haul (probably $5K in non-racing expenses JUST for the trip for mileage alone) and if Shawn does the 200 miler (on an 1125R) - it'll be some bucks.

We all have to figure out how we can make this happen. Crotchrocket.tv is writing the checks but I imagine that Rob is really needing a solid sponsor.
