Now, I remember why I Iike doing this.
Yesterday, I received the usual texts and phone calls from guys how act like they want to race. Most were asking me to turn the nitrous off, and they would give me this or that and do this and that to me bla bla bla.
So, I said "f it" I will turn it off. Long story short, none of these guys would do what they said they would do, and I ended up wasting $35 of mr12 and a trip to the track.
The good part,
I went back to the track tonight. I didn't tell anyone I was going, and wasn't looking for any grudge races or anything.
There were only a few bikes there, one being a vmax that was repeatly beating the piss out of a HD, which I did offer him any race he wanted for a lil change with "Wheelie" in mind. But he didn't want to do anything so that was that.
There was a guy about 180-190lbs on a 1000 a little shorter than my bike.
We agreed to race. No grudging, no smack talk, no wagers, just a friendly "lets line'em up and see what happens".
First race heads up.
Second race I give him the back tire.
Third race I give him the back tire and the break.
Fourth race samething.
During these races I had a problem with my bike and he helped me fix it; he also so had a problem with his bike and I helped him.
The cool part about this is, if I would have been the one losing most of the races I would still be happy and content as I am now, because it was all for fun (nothing else) and we tried to make the races a fair as we could.
My races tonight may seem boring to some people, but I had the most fun at the track tonight, then I have had in a while (and I didn't make a dime)

Kudos to you. Sometimes I would go to race and wind up just watching, talking to people, and offering/listening to advice.
I never was really good, still not very good, but I Love doing it. Now I get to do the same thing in a different country.

Life is short brother, do whatever makes you happy. I personally enjoy helping people, and messing around working on bikes... Racing is good clean fun, and it certainly gets the adrenalin flowing. Glad you had a good time man!
