Barber is a Buell's dream. The more curves the better. Long straights suck.

Us Buell people will jump all over your ass 0-60, but when it gets above that the old girl gets to wheezing. When it comes to the long straight at Nashville, I'll be that she'll be a sheezin as 600's and 1000's blow by me like I've got it in reverse (reverse lights).

I think I only got the good time last trip out. I was running in the 2:00-2:15's much of the rest of the later part of the day. Of course the whole first part was a wash out since I was in novice. First couple of sessions I don't think we even broke 70MPH. Passing ONLY in the straights REALLY sucked (see long straight comment above).

I just hope I'm in the verve.

Whatever.

You see me shaking my head? I blew the ENTIRE good run on 48 when I missed the shift. F'ed up the entire run. I was a gear too high with no engine braking and no torque.

That one road was "thrilling".


"Curve? What curvohshit!"
