It's not much but I'll take my pair of 6th place finishes. Really didn't get much practice in ahead of time so it is what it is.

Was really nice having a solid field today and getting some fun and competitive racing in.

Shout out to BluePressure for a mighty impressive debut finishing 3rd in race 2!

I was very nervous coming back to racing after more than a year but the practice and tuning really paid off.

Made up to 2nd place in first race only to find out on the last lap that the car was coming out of a corner slow . . . because my left index finger was resting slightly on the brake trigger! And Murphy was just behind to pounce on my silliness.

BluePressure had great speed and consistency in the 2nd race until he went off at the exit of infamous fast left hander on lap 10.

Of course in both races Nightmare was untouchable.

My controller's LB button does not work well so I had to give up the manual clutch; I think I ended up faster and more consistent not using the clutch since Maple Valley does not require a lot of gear changes.

Hey guys, maybe not be the ideal place to post this but since I am on this series here it goes lol. Had a motorcycle accident, broke my left clavicle bone. Really hard to move my left hand, I'll be out for about 6 to 10 weeks. Sorry.
As for me, I'm fine. I was entering freeway and lost back tire at 35mph freakishly weird. Slid hit curb and highsided on to left shoulder on to curb :/ (painful). Waiting on specialist to see if surgery will be required due to small fragments of bone in there.

By baby, 13 zx6r is fine, just needs a few left side fairings wasn't a major fall. Just unfortunate to break a bone :/

That's scary shit, man! Glad you're (mostly) okay! I suppose that's an expectable excuse to miss some races with us. lol

Thank you! Sucks because really wanted to race with y'all. Hopefully recovery is quick 🙏

Being alive is the main thing! Scary but fortunate that you still have good functionality of the other important bits. Take a lot of bacon.

You should still be able to beat Blonde with a broken bone; think about all the teasing, trolling, and bragging rights you'll have.

Quick in lap,

Passing pits and avoiding hits!

nSmokez slid on his MC and broke a boner,
Heavens NO, not the one next to the femur.

A minor debacle on his left clavicle,
Just a flesh wound, he sites a minor miracle.

35mph slip could've been a YouTube spectacle,
More grievous injury, surely would have been lamentable.

He fixes the bike, reaches into his $ receptacle,
Injuries will heal and he's still got 2 testicles.
