That's awesome, nice work getting bumped to expert. One of my old roommates races WERA and wasn't thrilled about getting bumped to expert, think he protested it the first year so he could dominate novice. Wish I had the time to give that a shot.

I'd like to run with WERA once or twice, just because they have Grattan in Michigan on their calendar. That track is so drat fun. We run with CCS and their calendar is pretty much: Blackhawk Farms, Road America, Blackhawk Farms, Blackhawk Farms, Blackhawk Farms. Meh.

I have a bag of frozen brussel sprouts (that will be there until I die or throw them out). I could hold a raffle and the winner gets them!

I think my favorite memory was the older folks who saved their change (pennies, mostly), and let you grab a handful so you could later torture the 15-19 year old worker at the convenience store as you counted out 59 cents for your candy bar, one cent at a time.

Grattan is such a great track. I live in central Wisconsin and last year two friends and myself drove through Milwuakke/Chicago and did a track Friday track day at Gingerman and then a Saturday at Gratten and then a Monday HSAX at Blackhawk Farms. The highlight of the weekend was definitely Gratten. If you live in the midwest you need to go to Gratten.

I don't care what any of you say, but getting piss-in-the-hamper drunk off Natty Ice is a pretty impressive feat.

I'm near Oconomowoc. I did Grattan once, the first year I started track riding. I'd like to do it again now that I'm a much faster and smoother rider. Blackhawk's a fun track, but it's basically the only track we race year in, year out, so sometimes it gets a little old. Being completely flat doesn't really help its case. Gingerman was kind-of fun, but it isn't very bike-friendly. The two seams that split the racing surface into 3rds can really unsettle the bike. Although when we rode it, it was an open track day for cars and bikes. No one showed up to ride bikes, so my dad and I had the track completely to ourselves.

pretty sure if we could get booze in Australia as cheap as that other stuff, or get hold of this without being denatured, roughly 90% of the population would be dead within a week.

I've only done blackhawk in the rain and I can see how it can be boring when you do it over and over. However, I thought it was a lot of fun in the rain, but its run-off sucks.

Or if you're using the lookaway method, at some point you'll look away when you're not welding, then turn and look just as you start.

We've always referred to this as "chinese welding". When searching google image search with the term "chinese welding" for visual accompaniment, i..just...what?
