Well Just got done testing and tuning the bike and its running pretty well.  Tommorrow is the big day. RACE DAY 1 of the season!!!! I am pumped and hoping for no RAIN!!! Will be back with updates tommorow and Sunday!

In the last race of the 2006 season,  I raced pretty well.  I placed 5th in the first Novice race heat 1 and 6th in the Novice heat two on Sunday. I have picked up some great sponsors so far for the 2007 and have a brand new 2006 Suzuki GSXR 600 and 750 that i will be racing in my  expert season.   I am hoping to pick up some more sponsors, so come check me out. 

Round 6 at Pacific Raceways was a good outing for me. I finished 11th in the first Novice Heat on Saturday and 6th! on Sunday. Most importantly i got my race lap times down into the 1:39~ range. Only 4 seconds of my goal for this season. Hopefuly Spokane this weekend will be a better one. Looking for a top 5 finish.

Spokane race got cancelled due to circumstances.

Round 4 was a bad one for me! I didnt show for the whole weekend cuase i was out injured. I had a high speed crash going into turn Two at Pacific Raceways on a track day the day before the race weekend. I bike was tossed as was I. I ended up going to the ER and had a fracutured tailbone and alot of busing. I will live to race again! Now its time to rest.

Looking forward to this weekend. Will be back with feedback and results! Wish me luck.

This past weekend was a great one for me and my team, Zeroprofile racing. In Novice heat 1, on Saturday, I placed 21st in a pack of 42 riders with a best lap time of 0 1:42.99! This was good considering i was put in the last row of the second wave of riders. In a eight lap race I passed up 21 other riders finshing really 3 in that heat. It was also 9 seconds faster than my best lap a month earlier. At Pacific Raceways.

On Sunday Placed 20th in a pack of 36. I started in the second row of this grid and stayed near the top of the second wave of riders.

Since there are so many riders on the track at once they have two waves. They let half of the riders leave first and 30 seconds later the second wave leaves. Overall i am pretty proud of what i did. I didnt crash and cut off alot of time of my best lap time Cant wait for round 3!
