Nov
20-21 WSMC
This was the now infamous weekend
that got cancelled due to: crashes, oiled track in several places,
cold, snow, wind, and so on. Race director Danny Farnsworth got fired
for cancelling the races shortly afterwards. You can read the mayhem
that ensued here: WSMC
unofficial BBS
The weekend actually
started out beautiful. No wind, warm-ish weather
and sunny. Track record setting conditions. But on race day, we
woke
to a little rain and sub freezing temperatures.
Three races were held
before cancellation around 12:30. There are usually 18 races on a race
day at WSMC. They were restarting race THREE after noon, and someone
crashed in the warm up lap. I spend most of the day in Rich's
trailer. I DID go out in first warm up practice and was very sorry for
doing so as my fingers actually fell off of my hands. They just froze
right off. I found them later, warmed them up and put them back
on, but not after a lot of whining first.
Danny got the boot for
ending the races. Here is the press
release. Form your own opinions, then start a flame war on the BBS
link above.

JM is a
large man. Here, he tries to tuck behind the bubble on my bike. Looks
painful.

trailer to hunt for food.
