Come on out and enjoy the weekend... Great racing, see the museum, what more could you want.

I'll be there running A superbike, A superstock, and Formula 1 on my s1000rr (#777)... trying to hold on to my #1 national rank in the novice class...

Several AMA boys should be there playing too since their season is over....

wera dot com has a schedule section if you need more info...

Saturday is 4hr endurance with some big names and Sunday is 17 sprint races...

All racing starts at noon both days!

Great show this weekend!!! Scott Russell, Elena Meyers, Cory West, Zach Herrin, Garrett Gerloff, Jake Lewis, and many more were racing... Amazing weather too!!! The Fast by Frank S1000RR showed up for the endurance race. The quick change parts on that thing are amazing!!!

I managed a 2nd and a 3rd against stiff competition and mixed in with experts that slowed us down because of the traffic. Next stop, Road Atlanta for the Grand National Finals!!!

That is way cool. I was at Barber and just returned. I had a blast watching the endurance races and even more fun competing in my first two sprint races on Sunday (see separate thread). You are right about the stiff competition..the paddock was a veritable who's-who of racing. Congratulations on your finish. I was up in the dunes, after the kink, watching your S1000RR and marveling at the speed.

Great Job Nikk! Keep us posted on the final!

Thanks guys, trying hard to do the bike justice!!!

The kink just after the museum turn...I spun up and hung out the rear going through there in practice while on a shagged tire in 4th gear... the bike was a handful!!!

How did it go? Did you hold your title?

Nikk777 · 09-21-2011, 07:07 PM

I am still #1 in the national series for open superstock... http://maps.wera.com/racers/racerpro...d=326475866668

Have a chance at 4 national titles at the Grand National Finals Oct 29 & 30 at Road Atlanta. 1 title race is wrapped up as long as I finish top 3 or 4... the other 3 required qualifying to get in the race through points and is winner take all. Should be a good weekend! Hope some of you can make it down cause the racing is awesome.
