Nick did well to beat Gogo at the last round.  I'm hoping he can do it again at Thill -- give me more of a buffer.  I still suspect GoGo will be a problem at the next Sears round....

Does GoGo have his write-up yet on BARF?  I'm interested to see what he has to say this time.

He'll likely mention how he was out-powered.

Probably.  That seems to be a theme, but it's not a completely false claim, is it?  I'm just mostly curious about hearing another rider's perspective who was so close to Tigre.  It's fun hearing the two different sides.

I'm curious to see his write-up.  I will get an honorable mention, I'm sure.

Curious also to see how he spins it...  I suspect this will be the story:
-"I don't have enough horsepower"
-"I don't have enough aerodynamics"

His choice to race that bike.  He rides it ridiculously well -- 1:54.6 on a dirtbike is not make the beast with two backsing around.

How were his T-Hill 749R times?  And was that before or after repaving?

pre-repaving, he was around 54.8 on his 749R and 52.8 on his 999R.

These are DBCom times, so +/- ~5 seconds.

Better than I expected write up. 

I thought Steve had decided against the tiger-on-the-tank prank given that GoGo's bike was hemorrhaging oil.  Guess not.   [laugh]  Brutal.  Just brutal.   [thumbsup]  Keep frosty around him, Steve, he's playin' for keepsies!

I waited to see until they had it going again.  Once I saw it was working, I went for it. 

I've got something lined up for next round, too.  :)

Where are you in the total points standings in Open Twins versus him?  He said he had an 18 pt. lead over you.

He's only got 7 points on me now.

James Randolph's crash in Formula Pacific meant that beating GoGo by 2 positions gave me 11pts (2nd vs 4th) instead of 10pts (3rd vs 5th).

Its time to break out the tiger costume again. Have some one put it on, roll by his pit on the tiger scooter. Stop in front, make a "pawing" gesture at him and scoot off. no words said.
