        Oh man, looks like fun...I cant wait to hit the track!
        I know I dreamed you,
        A sin and a lie.
        I have my freedom,
        But I don't have much time.
        Faith has been broken,
        Tears must be cried.
        Let's do some living,
        After we die.

          Why you'd race a Hawk at Loudon (get that one alot). Cause it's fun to beat the snot out of SV's and Ducati's on a 18 year old bike

          I love that one of Matt 834 coming over the hill. Looks like he's barely moving but that's 4th gear pinned! My front end gets light over that.. booya!

            Forget about Mr. Cushion, he doesn't exist. He (or it) is a bot. Just some internet crap that litters forums.

                  Yea too bad my form sucks in the first photo. That was before I had 'corrected' my right hand corner form. Ugh.

                  Nope, Matt's right on the money in T3. You can see the apex cones right behind his rear wheel pointing at the apex. You basically wanna skimp the rumble strips, watch out you don't get your tires or kneepucks in there thou, doesn't feel good ops:

                    Turn three is where the infield portion of the bike track reenters the nascar oval right? Thats where duhamel had his real bad crash back in the 90's, which led to the AMA guys boycotting the following years superbike race on a wet track... which led to the AMA leaving Loudon

                    Which was good for the locals racing in the Loudon Classic, but not so good for fans of AMA racing...

                          That should go in the other thread I posted with pics recently, the one everyone ignored. This thread is ancient.
