Mid America Photos

Some of the snaps from the Mancation...
Still finding my way around the track...

Head down, trying to keep that Triumph guy behind me...

Still tentative on the cornering front in the morning...

Getting there...

Inching closer... I could pass him in the infield, but the nearly 1-mile long front straight killed me...

By the end of the day, if I could get in front of him midway through the infield, I could keep him behind me for the duration of the setting.  And yes, I did get my sliders down by the afternoon -- the camera dude just wasn't around to catch it...

Quiet

Not a lot to report on the 'mono front.  I put on a 16T front sprocket yesterday -- woulda liked it at Mid-America, but forgot it at home... should also help at Gimli -- hitting top gear long before turn 1.  As well, the crack in the clutch cover was sweating a bit of oil -- very minor amounts, so I JB Welded it... we'll see if that does the trick.
