Great weekend racing....weather was cool but dry and sunny. Went up with the Dime City crew including Scott Fiedler and Scott Turner. Will and Richard were also with us and they both were in the racing school with me on Friday. Both Scott and Will had several podium finishes in Vintage Superbike and Sportsman classes.
We had three practice sessions on the track Friday during class ending with a mock race for all the newbies at the end of the day.
Scott, Richard, and I were in the Historic Production Lightweight class all riding CB350's. There were 14 in our class and four classes in the race totalling 52 bikes on the track! Turn 1 was pretty dicey with lots of folks trying to gain position, but there were no incidents. Each race was 6 laps. We took it easy learning the track and getting comfortable. On Sunday, I had a duel with a CB400 the last two laps and was finally able to slingshot around on the last lap and get ahead with enough momentum to stay in front to the checkers. I finished 6th on Saturday, and 5th on Sunday. On to NOLA in less than three weeks.
