Who??? I am really excited about this year too. Everything is really shaping up sponsor wise. Two in particular I am very active with and we are building a great relationship that I am sure will last a long time. There is a cat in the bag that I will let out as soon as the time is right. How long have you been racing? This is only my second full year. |

I would just like to say that I have been extemely fortunate in getting my racing effort started. Many thanks to all those helping out; Xopti/Mike, Marty, FlyScot/John, PaulXb/Paul, WolfRider/Mark. I would like to give special thanks to BuellGator/Paul. Without him I know I would not even be close to where I am at now and may have never even set a tire on a track! So here's to friends and partnerships!! Hopefully we will have a successfull run this season!!! More sponsorship announcements forthcoming! Oh yeah..... Florida Gators, 2008 National Champs!!! |

Congratulations... web site looks good. Schedule permitting, I'm planning on showing up to provide a cheering section as often as possible. On the subject of sponsors- I just became an Amsoil dealer, so if you need any help in that area let me know. |

I'm so on the fence for this season.... $$$ Every time I think things are going good... POW!! It all started with hurricane Ike... Power was out for a week... had to buy a BIG generator (all elec.house) but didn't get it in time to save the food... Car needs new tires... Truck needs new tires.... Wife car needs new tires... Water pump takes a dump on the wifes car... The furnace blows up... It freak'n freezing out!! My racing budget is getting SUCKED dry!! |

I am really counting on my tax returns and sponsor support to get me through the season. Tires will be my biggest issue, but fortunately I should have some help there. Once the season starts, things should be OK. Getting ready right now on a tight budget is getting me a little worried. |

do what you can. race when you can. nothing worse than going in the hole and having to get out of it all together. i will be running a limited schedule this year. more to do with a weird midwest region ccs schedule and overlapping with other commitments. |

Those GPR stabilizers sure look nice, have a good track record, and don't cause all the issues that fitting a standard linear damper do. If we were building a new race bike I know which way I'd be leaning. |
