NinjaDoc (Craig Dunn) put on a spectacular private day at Jennings GP for Sarasota Riders and Fuel Addicts.. Thank you Craig for such a great day!

Action Power Sports gave me a great deal on a 2009 Yamaha R1.. This bike is amazing.. Cross Plane Inline 4 Cyclinder, giving the sound and bottom end performance of a v-twin. This bike has massive grunt.. I love it!

I just completed the sale of my WRX.. It's going to a good home in Fort Myers.. Nice guy, seems like he's really interested in developing the car and taking care of it.. Which is good. I really hated to see my FZR get destroyed when I sold it to a good friend who didn't appreciate it's capabilities and left it rot with no maintenance.. ;)  Now it's just time for the R1 to sell so I can go get the new 2009 Yamaha R1!

Jennings Trackday, sure it's a long tow up, but when you go with all your friends and have the time of your life, it's well worth it! We had just about everybody from Fuel show up and we all had a blast!

Impromptu trip to Deal's Gap. 4 Day trip, 1 day up, 2 beautiful riding days, 1 day back. We all put on around 280 miles each day. From Isaac's parent's house in Cleveland over to Telico Plains, across the Cherohala Skyway to Robinsville up to Deal's Gap and down to Fontana Village along the river.

I just posted my WRX up on Craig's list. So if anyone is interested, please contact me via email. I'm asking $10,500 and am willing to trade for a Crew Cab Truck. Preferably a Nissan Titan Crew Cab or Frontier Crew Cab.

Seann and I headed south to Miami over the weekend to watch the CCS Season Opener Motorcycle Races. I've been to the track before, but only as a spectator to an IRL race several years ago. This was my first trip inside as a participant to a race. I can say that I really like the place. Facilities are top notch and the organization was well planned.

My first trip out to SRGP was a very good ride. Had a lot of fun and got to heat cycle my new tires. They are now fully scrubbed in and look very nice.. Had around 10-15 riders out there and NinjaDoc was taking photo's.. So I got a few to show off with my new bike.

I saw this posted on Jalopnik and just had to share it.

"People are reluctant to buy our cars because of the perception that
maybe the quality isn't what it should be. Therefore, they're going to
buy Japanese, they're going to buy a German car, forgetting that 50
years ago, we had to bomb those people and kill them by the thousands
to keep them from overtaking our country."

I found this news clip entirely interesting from the technical standpoint and that I can't think of a better use of these smug cars than to be used as standby emergency generators. Toyota Prius Alternate Use: Backup Generator | The Green Motorist
