Anyone from Florida interested in running some bouys on Thursday and/or this weekend at the Sunshine Skyway.
I've got a blaster that I am thinking about racing at the St. Pete race at the end of the month and I'm looking for some guys to practice with.
I know at least one more blaster will be there and possibly some runabouts.
I don't object to having some standups/runabouts out there. It just helps to simulate race course conditions.
I've got the bouys so all you have to do is show up.

What is this thing "bouy?" BTW, godocgo will eat your lunch in that race. You'll need a Co2 mask in just in order to finish safely no? :nana:

Rojer that. I'm just looking forward to watching Lee and Scottie Mac and Scottie Macs bro ripping it up out there. I'll be racing just to get a front row seat of those guys whippin up on some HX's.:woot:
I'd be happy to just finish before on an HX on my slow blaster.
I do want to make sure I can go on the next "surf trip" with you guys. I'm hoping it will be on separate days.

My big bore B1 should be complete for the St. Pete race, I got a budy who lives over there, we will be staying there. Shiot, maybe have a little get together one of those nights. I usualy get podiums or 1st when I am drunk or hung over in a Mini Mx race.lol
Sounds like there may me a nice full sport class, I am stoked!

Right on.:headbang: I was thinking about also making a trip to the east coast this weekend. I ran it by Reed already and I'm waiting to hear back from him. Would you and Ollie be interested? I think there are going to be some guys riding at Daytona.

no, I'm moving this weekend. You can ask ollie but he's the type who needs a lot of notice to fit things in usually.

hehe.. exactly! That was fun as hell though and highly recommended to do again sometime as a change of pace. And you're 100% correct... I did have to duck and then bail after Ollie went wide on me w/o knowing I was coming along side!:crazy:

That's okay... Just as long as I don't get beat up toooo bad by HX's.
To bad there isn't a beginner class for us slow folks.. :biggrin:
It will be nice to see some nicely setup Blasters though.
