The CEO Report #2

Great write up.

Congrats on the 1st place.

Your reports sound all too familiar.

I tucked the front last year trying to catch the leader and ended up in the gravel trap upside down. The flip destroyed my fairing stay and windscreen which meant no front number plate.

Thankfully my dad was there. He ripped one of the gate signs off the fence and bent it into shape to act as a front plate. Cut the loose bits off the faring and went out and podiumed two races later.

Redneck engineering FTW!

Bike is half put together, exhaust packing is shooting out the side of the can, lap timer and damper are hanging off, everything is wrong, and I don't care

Love it.

Congrats, bro!
