Popular Post BR46 Posted March 19, 2022 Popular Post Share #1 Posted March 19, 2022 In between racing Daytona and today we installed a new ignition system on the sidecar and it's running strong in practice. Wo46 changed her body position for right hand turns allowing us to dive deeper and faster into right turns.. We turned a lap in practice 10 seconds faster than our best lap ever at this track. I think that we can get another second faster in the race. We will be racing soon and I have back to back races so I will update you later on how the races 3 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2Far ★ Posted March 19, 2022 Share #4 Posted March 19, 2022 I’m having trouble grasping how the side car uses an ignition at all. If WoB doesn’t lean out far enough, does it zap her in the azz? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post BR46 Posted March 19, 2022 Author Popular Post Share #8 Posted March 19, 2022 On the motorcycle I got 8th but we are not going to talk about the clutch issues and me screwing up in a turn and seeing how ruff the rumble strips are. In sidecar we got second. Wo46 did her perfect and did not miss a single mark. Me on the other hand made a few minor mistakes. Our lap times were down a few seconds from yesterday but on the back straight the head wind was brutal. Now it cow time 7 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the motorcycle race on the second lap red flag came out so we had to restart the race after the crash was cleaned up. On the 2nd lap of the restart I went into turn 1 WAY TO HOT.....front wheel was chattering, the back tire was off the ground and I went off the track in the gravel trap. I pushed the bike out of the gravel and went to restart the bike but the corner worker said I could not re enter the track. The sidecar race was the exact replay of Saturday's race with a 2nd place finish. We were 2 seconds faster than Saturday race but still 2 seconds slower than Friday's practice. On Saturday our son finish 3rd in Heavy Weight Superbike. In Middle Weight Superbike he got first place. On Sunday's race he finished 2nd in Heavy Weight and 1st in Middle Weight. 3 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was my own stupid mistake. I was chasing the guy a head of me and missed my braking point and went off track. By the rules I should have been able to re enter but the corner worker wouldn't let me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
