    Working the pro school Friday. Racing MW solo Sat, both C's and the old fart race Sun. See you there! I can help you with registration and paperwork Saturday if you need.

    Thanx.
    I think my bike is Ready. Oliver safety wired it for me. But don't know how many classes r6 stock can fit in. It has full exhust and bazazz & quick shifter and slick rear tire. Woundering if it is still fit in super stock class?

    R6 with slicks can run C superbike, B superstock and superbike, A superstock and superbike, and F1

    A=1000 and under
    B=750 and under
    C=600's

    The only A,B,C, class that requires DOT's this year is C superstock. So you are good for 6 races, that's a busy day lol.

    bring a tube of silicone with you just in case.

    For the record I was just around while your bike was beefing worked on so don't give me too much credit.

    I will be there all weekend too. Coaching Friday. Just spectating and helping out in Aubreys pit for her first weekend too.

    Your bike is ss legal. I would suggest 1 race Saturday, mw solo, and 2-3 races Sunday. Check the day schedule and pick a few that are not all bunched up, so that you have time in between.

    3 races is a lot of effort also depending on when they are (maybe back to back). Have fun and if this is your PN weekend just finish on 2 wheels!!!

    I been thinking on doing pro school, may be that would help me improving my lap time. My lap time at grattan 127 . Not sure what they run in novice super stock or super sport . Also I been told I can't use engine ice for coolant ? Is that true ?

    Engine ice is not allowed in WERA. You'll need to use water only or water with "Water Weter" added to it.

    I'll probably head up there with my buddy for first WERA event of the year. It's been a while since I've been up there.

    I have one of nicks with like 20 laps on it in my garage. It's the newer 180/60 sc2. I can bring it with me that Friday unless you want to drive out to st Clair shores before then. $75 if you want it. I'll see if there is a good front too if you want too

    I'll have a front take off (SC2) if Oliver doesn't find one. FYI.
