I had a race this weekend all was well Saturday, I line up on the grid in pole and was able to take the win, Sunday on the other hand…… started out good, I got pole again. then we get called out to the grid as I walked over to get on the bike, I notice my tire warmers were on the tires, but NOT plugged in! cold as hell, spent 2 laps trying not to get run over and finished in 4th …what sucked is that coasted me any championship hopes I had for the year!

try slicks on wet floor and doing the fastst lap of the race as is drying out and/or rains of dry floor and got 3rd fastst lap of the race too

it sucks to have only one set of wheels when the weather is against you but i manage to get 3rd in both races.

Are you drunk typing? I'm having a hard time fallowing you here man!

Okay, tell me if this sound right: you had slicks on in the rain, and as it dried out you got the fastest lap?,

then the sun came out and your were like all ” fu*k it!. I’m put on some rains, and show these b!tches what’s up” and you got the 3rd fastest lap? This about how it went down?

due to not trusting my gear box yet and if it does take a (*&t I want BMW to fix it, the bike will be my street bike till next year I’m on a ZX10R now, so no TC! but TC only works if the tire spins up, if I lose the front due to cold tires no TC in the world will help me

Good point. Didn't consider the front!
