    Did anyone else notice a slick spot in the middle of 14A?

    I noticed a big stain from the apex area of 14a to the right side of the track nearly halfway down the short chute. Looked like when a semi hits a deer lol. But I didn't notice any lack of grip.

    But then again I was not railing really hard

    Was an awesome weekend, my first weekend ever instructing and I had an absolute blast, minus Friday night and Saturday morning. :lmao:

    Want to give a big shout out to a few people.

    Trevor, thanks for giving me the opportunity to do this, I loved every second of it!

    Calandro and Ed for being awesome lead novice guys! Helped me out a lot!

    Charlie, thanks for letting me shadow you and get the jist of things before I had my own group, it made a big difference on Sunday!

    And all the other instructors that helped me dive into this awesome experience!

    Corner workers, as usual, did an awesome job!

    I think that is it..if I forgot anyone I am sorry! I'm still on a little high from this event. :thumb:

    I think it was oil. Guy blew his engine, he had oil all over his boots and leathers. The guy that was behind him when he blew the engine had oil on his bike. At least that was we heard down at the Big Ear.

    Could not have been any better, awesome weekend, 4th session on Sunday was my best session ever, was able to put all together, getting faster thanks to the god father of the Russian Mafia (Daniel) lol. Great time, hoping to make end of month, be safe, have fun.

    Wow! What a great weekend! I can tell because I'm really sore today. My brother Dave and I bumped to A group for the first time on Sunday and my times dropped 2 seconds to the low 1:41s. It was awesome riding with all of those fast guys.

    Trevor, thanks for all of the hard work you do!
