Team Spawn Race Report
After predictions of rain all week, Saturday
was sunny and warm! Jaminaz, Taylor, Larry and I convoyed to
the track and I set to breaking in my newly-assembled
50 Superbike, waking Spawn and Scyther from their
winter's sleep in between heat cycles, while
Jaminaz used Zephyr for the New Rider Clinic. The hardest thing
was going slow, but I surely didn't want to
blow up my new motor...Bill and Seth weren't so lucky as each seized
a piston, ouch. Ron and Team Omzig were there
in force, as was Ralph and Time Bandits and several others!
Sixteen bikes altogether, I think! Great showing
for a test day! Ron's and Darrin's GP bikes are radically
fast, and everyone was looking good on the
track - my new bike ran smoooth, and I got in all but the final heat
cycle on the break-in! Everything is looking
great for next weekend's season opener, pray for Sun!
My 2000 80GP trophy!
