Maybe.  When is the slow race event you're in starting?

"Anyone go down?" "Go" as in past tense. It already happened. You missed it.

Ha, I missed that.  I would assume, as with most posts, it's a future-tense thing. 

I guess I won't go down now.

Yes, it's over.  I performed live twice on Friday evening and once Saturday evening.  Went 4-0 against the motor units.

Back on top!  Good for you!  Was the picture from last year.  Looks like he has the better of you thus far.

It was taken by Quick Throttle Magazine, never heard of them before.  You are correct, the picture has me losing, but I eventually slowed down and he passed me.  It was a pretty competative race, he ended up putting his foot down on both occasions.  This is the same guy who dumped his bike against me a couple of years ago.  And he took 4th place last year in Vegas during the Southwest Police Motor Competition against a huge field so he's good.  Just not good enough to beat me.
