We have four sponsor passes that include full weekend passes to the races including full paddock access. Who wants them? First come first served! Just need a paltry $29 each to cover shipping and handling and a little for the BadWeB awards program. Submit payment via www.paypal.com to contingency@badweatherbikers.com Help! |

You got it, FedEX Saturday Morning delivery. Don't know for sure how early. If you had got to me just an hour ago I could have still made the 8pm CDT FedEx depot deadline. Do the paypal and I'll have them on their way tomorrow via FedEx priority overnight Sat. delivery. |

Cool, I haven't been to a racing event in long time-tractor pulls don't count, used to go to Norwalk and Milan for drag racing-be good to see some bikes going at it. Thanks. You should have gotten an e-mail. |

On a side note, do they make ear plugs for little ones? my lady keeps harping on me about it as I have been wanting to go this for awhile, I want to take my little guy as I know he'll love it but she might not let me take him if I can't find some stuff for his ears-muff, cut down plugs, anyone ever find a way to deal with this. He don't mind my bike much and likes black sabbath turned up but I have the feeling that IL4's running at 13,000 r's might get to him throughout the day. |

The AMA bikes really aren't too loud. MotoGP are like 1,000 times louder, no kidding. They all run mufflers. Not stock but not very loud at all. If you will promise to return it forthwith, I'll even put the AMA Sponsor parking pass in the envelope. Just return it via regular mail on Monday so I can send it to anyone heading to VIR and/or Road Atlanta in their cager. |

Just remember, you are receiving sponsor exchange passes. You'll need to register with the AMA folks there to exhange the sponsor passes for actual race credentials. The schedule doesn't say where so the ticket office will probably be the place. If they ask you if you need hot pit passes, tell 'em "yes please." Have fun. |

Unfortunately, I will be missing this years Mid-Ohio race. Ceejay you will have a blast. Mid-Ohio is a great track - I recommend you get a spot right either next to the fence on the S-curves or the grandstand on the other-side of the high speed straight heading towards the S-curves. The paddock pass is fantastic as well and the smell of race fuel gets to be addictive. Hoban brothers appear to be struggling in practice currently in 35th. I assume Hals and everyone else is going to sit out the rest of the year? Hopefully next year will bring more action on the Buell front in AMA. Although attendees at the "dinner with Erik" have relayed that he said Buell would not enter the Daytona 200 next season. Since I am the eternal optimist I assume that is because in 2006 we will be racing in SuperBike with that secret 2nd bike that isn't getting much talk! |

Unfortunately one of the nicest racers (and former Vr1000 pilot) will not be there this weekend. http://www.superbikeplanet.com/2005/Jul/e/n050722g.htm Even though he races in Canada now, he has made it down to Ohio the last few years. (Message edited by JScott on July 22, 2005) |

Hoban Bros must be having some serious issues. Qualifying 36th, dead last, 11+ seconds from Zemkes' qualifying time. At least they are giving it a go. Go Buell!!! |

Corey, I'm sending you all four passes. If you can, make use of the other two as well or find someone who will. If they are willing to chip in for the BadWeB FX Buell Racer Award Fund, then that would be great. I also put a couple home-made BadWeB business cards in the envelope. If you find someone who can use the sponsor passes, maybe you can give them a card too so they'll know where/who they came from. Just return the parking pass via the envelope provided. Be sure to tape the flap closed as the adhesive is twice used already. I'm off to FedEX. Enjoy. Look for delivery tomorrow early. |

Thanks a bunch Blake, parked in the infield, the sponsor tickets and parking pass made my wife think we were getting sky boxes with a matrie di-however that supposed to be spelled and all that good stuff, going back tomorrow with some friends to hang out in the paddock and test ride some buells, didn't see the ulysses when I stopped by today though. let everyone know what I thought/saw in upcoming thread, Mladin posted a new track record and was riding like he was on a magic carpet-very smooth |
