More pics of me at the track
I just figured that I would post the rest of the pics that showed up this week in the mail thanks to Bob Johnson photography. Bob always takes outstanding pics at the Division 7 races.
Here's a pic of the first round in Phoenix.
You can read my other report here:

When I first started racing, I loved pics of myself so that I could show off to my buddies. Nowadays, pictures of my launches are more technique feedback than anything else.
For example, this picture shows that I'm launching a bit crooked. For those of you non-wheelie bar types, I put white shoe polish on my wheelie bar wheels. You can see the white marks that they leave on the track. Notice that they are not even? At this race, I was having issues with not picking up my feet at the same time. This picture confirms that I was still picking up one foot before the other. The jagged lines show that I was kinda squirrely on the launch.
Cool, huh?

Sweet, Mike. I can't wait to see what the tail looks like painted.
We run on a 0.400 Pro tree. Knowing that makes my consistent lights under 0.020 that much more spectacular, huh? ....and I'm humble too.

From the ESPN commercial: "There are no stupid questions....only stupid people asking questions."
Matt, the front fender is from FSD (free street design):

They used to have a US distributor, but he got into a motorcycle accident a couple of years back and stopped. I just ordered the fender and undertail directly from them in France.
