Good rides today Metz! Thought GoGo had your number in twins, and FP for that matter then you reeled him back in. Fun to watch you two guys go at it. Smooth operators both.
 
Great race Steve. You pounded GoGo like a sledgehammer pounds a thumbtack.
 
Bravo!!

In the interest of public diplomacy, I'll say that it takes a worthy opponent to make a good contest. And a good contest (actually, pair of races) it was! :thumbup
 
My first thought was 'holy cow, that is a fast race write up'.

Nice finishes, Steve.
 
Yup. That pretty well sums up what we saw. Steve was flying!
 
You're usually a pretty friendly guy but you were super chipper this weekend and for good reason. You were flying. Good job.
 
Nice job man!

You looked smooth, fast and stripy!
 
We had no numbers this round, not Steve's, not our geometry, not laptimes. Keep swinging Tiger Thor, :thumbup
 
Steve,

It looked like you had serious speed wobble all the way down the straights...every lap. Any issues with that?
 
Thanks, all.

Dos--front end of the bike was a little unstable in some sections due to very little weight on it (wheelies). I think it is okay--not holding me back at this point, though certainly got a pucker or two.
:)
 
We up in the T3 terrace enjoyed the one wheel action on the cool off lap exiting T2. :thumbup
 
Go Tiger! Awesome performance, and no fluke - you're consistently shedding laptimes and the results speak for themselves. That and the jugular action pic.....who needs words?!
 
Nice riding Steve, it was cool watching you close the gap and make your move in the twins race :thumbup

Thanks, Martin!

I wish I would have gotten to watch more than the first ~half-turn of your ride in FP :)

You rocked it in FP and made the end of the Open GP race really f'in exciting, too. Congrats on the great weekend!
