I kinda thought that might be you when I heard the bike number, it sounded familiar (we have a scanner in our pit tuned to the safety/corner workers channel most the time). I hadn't heard for sure what the injuries were, but that really sucks you got hurt. Blackhawk Farms is definately one of those places you don't want to run off the track in most places, not much for run-off room.
I didn't have a very good weekend myself (though I didn't crash), I couldn't get the bike to hook up for anything. I was getting full bike slides in a few places and rear wheel spin in other places, the bike just didn't feel good to me. I think part of the problem was I changed my gearing which changed my wheelbase and rake angle of the forks at the same time, luckily I will be going back to my top-end gearing for the Race of Champions at Daytona during Biketoberfest in a few weeks - then I plan on retiring this racebike (maybe back to street?).
Next season will be here soon enough. Our 1st race of the season is usually at Heartland Park in Topeka, Kansas - I believe they usually have the new racer school at that event as well - so if you want to go with us that will probably be an option for you. Either way, heal up!
Hey Mike
I will have to try to catch up with you next year as my sudden stop in the tire wall ended any chance for me to ride this year. And for the record, there is nothing funny about breaking a humoris ( i can't spell either)!!
