ok, who's going and how am I going to recognize you?? Myself, I'll be on the new blue XB12X, wearing a blue stich, camping with the crew at the corkscrew. How about a Sunday morning breakfast ride before the GP? | ||

Come up to the Love Shack! There are almost 40 of us up there. I've got a location somewhere in tinyurl - I'll have to go find it again. | ||

Why do you guys call it the love shack? | ||
| Fresnobuell |
That IS a good view. Hang onto that campsite. How your get 40 people in that campsite? Did I just answer my question in my last post?  | ||
| Slaughter |
There are 3 full-sized RV camping spots with only one being used by Jerry Johnson's RV (shown)... doubt that there'll be 40 folks actually camping there. There's probably nearly 20 camping there and more who stop by (it's a convenient meeting place) It's just ALWAYS been the Love Shack... you'll have to ask Ebear or Al about that! | ||

| 2008xb12scg |
So is the "love shack" at turn 9? btw if anybody does want to ride together give me a call five one zero-828-744zero | ||
| Firemanjim |
Was going to head down today but have been sicker than a dog,hope I feel good enough to make some of the weekend,dang!! | ||
| Metalstorm |
Yes turn 9. A walk bridge blocks the view of riders coming out of the corkscrew but other than that you get to see a lot of the track from there. Hanging out with a bunch of crazy BadWeBers is priceless | ||
| 2008xb12scg |
Sounds great! I just got my ticket so I'll be there in the a.m. Jim, hope you feel better. If ya need anything I'm not to far away.. | ||
| Firemanjim |
Fever finally broke, feel nearly human again. Got a shower and a beer!! Looking up. | ||

Not fair,Blake. Let them shift for themselves. Headed out soon. | ||

Where are all the Buells?!?!?!?!?! Really though, it looks like a Ducati rally down on Cannery row... I've seen ONE Lightning and ONE Blast so far... No Ulys or 25C/R's yet... I guess you guys are having too much fun at the Love shack huh...  | ||
| 2008xb12scg |
Just wanted to thank everybody at the love shack for the hospitality and good times. Didn't mean to run off without saying g,bye and thanks. I went down to the paddock and when I looked at the time I had to get home. Jim thanks for the offer but I couldn't get out of some things that had to be done this a.m. Love shack rocks!  | ||
| 2008xb12scg |
and one more thing GO HIGBEE!! | ||
| Doerman |
OMG! What's happened to the world of professional racing. You guys managed to lure the Geico girls up to the Love Shack?!? | ||
| 2008xb12scg |
And lucky for the rest of us Jim was down track side at the time otherwise they wouldn't have noticed the rest of us... | ||
| Chadhargis |
I'll be there in my mind. Watching in high def. | ||

Hey thanx Hughlysses ... Next time how about a spoiler alert? | ||

What a great weekend, just got home a while ago. Fun time camping with everyone. I was a real treat to have Michael Barnes and Danny Eslick stop by the Love Shack with their umbrella girls. And Richie Morse stopped by as well. And to top it all off, Shawn Higbee and his girlfriend were camping with us as well. Just goes to show you three out of four Buell racers prefer the Love Shack for a good time. Thanks to Jerry, Kathleen, Al and everyone else who put the weekend together. I had a blast. | ||

finishing 8th does not do justice for the competeviveness performance by Eslick. what a race. It was better then the GP race. it was a thriller. i was cheering for the V power of the aprilla when it was the aprilla and yamaha figting for the win. Eslick was for most of the race in the top 3 until the last accident and I was just glad the yamaha missed Eslick. It would have sucked to see our Bueller go down after such a great performance. go buell | ||

I watched the lap times from AMA racing for the Sportbike race yesterday, are the Buells having their tires go away more than the 600s? It seamed like their lap times were falling off more at the end than anyone else. | ||
| Gregtonn |
...are the Buells having their tires go away more than the 600s... I would say they are. Tire wear is somewhat dependent on riding style. However, any time you are carrying more weight on the same contact patch you will likely cause more wear to maintain the same lap time. Also, after the near miss in the Corkscrew toward the end of the race, Eslick may have decided that finishing the race was better than crashing while trying to chase down the leaders. G |
