6x6 Racing at Ashtabula, Ohio June 18-20, 2010

[lewis]

Glad to hear from Bridget and Whipper and that their traveling is going well.

Sorry you will not be able to join us Bronco but we understand a house hits a little higher that a race. Next year, there will be another one.

Beth, i saw the trailer the other day. That poor truck. Race has found every square inch of usable space, and he used it.

The Crush will be driven today for the first time, not much test and tune time. I will try to get all the bugs out. I have 4 days left.

The humidity is a killer here right now in North Carolina. Feels like we are breathing liquid.

Hope all are well and all travel safe as you leave out for the race and will see you in Ashtabula for a great week-end of fun and excitement.

I won't be able to make it this year after all. My wife and I are buying a new house and have too much to do to get away with the swamp fox. On a bright side my new house is right in the river where it is very shallow and the riding will be much better then I have now. Hope to hear good stories and maybe next year I can meet everyone. Have fun

Sorry to hear you cant make it. Sounds like a nice spot for a house though!!!

Bridget and Whipper--Safe Travels and we can't wait to see you guys again!

As for Brian's idea about blowing off work...I would love to but I've got a few more things to do to close out the school year. It is a very tempting offer but my boss would not be happy! I know the waiting is getting to Brian...the trailer is already loaded. I'll come home from work on Monday and he'll be packed. What am I going to do with him for 3 more days??? Any ideas?

As Brian said, we've added one to our traveling band. My niece, Becky, is coming with us. In exchange for her babysitting Wyatt we offered her primo lodging, great food, awesome entertainment and all the smores she can eat. She went for it without hesitation. She is in for a treat!!

Safe Travels to everyone and we'll see ya'll in a few days!

Racerone3,
I hope you find some insurance.

As for the rokon, I will trade oh 25 minutes(+/- few hours) of attex military trainer time for rokon time? What you thing?

Between watching races and trail riding, goofing around and hang out with everyone this will be soooo fun!!!!

Bridget,
The weather here has been really humid past few days here also. I hope it mellows out a tad bit. The weather last year was sooo awesome. Sunny but perfect temp. Cool calm breeze. Hope we luck out again!

sounds like a fair trade to me. we are bringing out neice with us and she will probably be running the wild wolf, so i'll be Rokon riding on the trails. i'm sure i'll be looking for something with 6/8 wheels to ride. how are you gonna explain to little Larry that your allowed to ride a 2 wheeler and he isn't???

the ankle is feeling pretty good and i got my insurance worked out, so i will be able to race, but my offer still stands. if anyone wants to run my machine in a different class, they are welcome to it.

I've been trying to convince Beth to blow off work for the week and head up early but so far she hasn't bought into the idea.

can't wait to get up there and see everyone again!

Made it to Illinois today. The humidity since we got out of New Mexico sucks. Hoping the weather coming from north China soon will be much better. We did see our first double rainbow coming out of a St Louis storm.

This thread is quiet, too. It must be the calm before the storm.

Bridget

Glad to hear you guys made it safely. That's a long distance in a short time! And yes, I think you're absolutely right about this being the calm before the storm. I think its a pretty good bet to say there's a lot a brewin behind the scenes right now!

Race

Check with Progressive. They insured my max I think it was around $100

they will only do max and argo, and the operator has no personal injury coverage (in NC). i have an aplication in for a short term health insurance policy. hopefully it will go through in time for the races... if not it will still be a fun weekend, just at a much slower pace!



the Rokon is on the trailer and anyone who wants to take it for a spin is welcome to. for everyone racing this is a non issue, but if your coming to watch or trail ride, and want to try the Rokon out, please bring a helmet. while it's top speed is only in the mid 20's, with 2 wheel drive the steering is a lot different than any other bike and it does have the abality to throw the rider to the ground in a hurry.

thanks for the tips guys. after hours on the phone i found out that motorcycle/ ATV insurance in North Carolina does not cover the operator for medical. i'll have to explore other options.

I have the Truck and the Apache insured with Allstate. Getting the Lil' Truck insured took longer for some reason. I insured that one this year and the Apache last year. My agent had to get Customer Service involved but after a week or two, it was done. I think I'm paying $100 each.

[wfo]

I use farmers and they are linked to foremost...i think thay may want to see it first
it cost me 175 a year full coverage..SO THE COVERAGE WILL BE FROM FOREMOST
