Good News !!! Chad, my youngest son will ride in the AMA Prostar Nationals 600 Supersport class. Kawasaki rented Mooresville, NC dragway (1/8 mile)last Tuesday and Chip Ellis brought their bike. Chad ran high 6:30's which impressed them enough to offer him a ride. We will be in Gainesville in two weeks.......wish him luck !!!!!!!!

Good news Dan, it's got to be a blast to watch the kids play, especially when dad is probably a bigger kid than both the boys. I may have to run up to Gainesville and say hi.

THAT'S GREAT! Good luck to Chad for a sucessful season and the ability to ignore your "tips". Just kiddin'... kinda!
I'll be down early this May, maybe we go out for another "pre-Gap Event" ride?

Thanks guys for the support! Mike, he has signed on for all eight Prostar races so we will be in Atlanta April 6th & 7th. We will be with Chip Ellis ( Kawasaki Funny Bike rider and all around great guy ) so look us up.
Dave, if ya get a chance to come to Gainesville we'll see you and Harry down there.
Luckily, the March event at Maxton is still on for the 12.......I'm REALLY looking forward to that again.
