Loring Thanks

[sabat]

What a great weekend, thanks to Mark Sotomajor & Bob Wanner, and all the LTA folks who put time and energy into this event   Big thanks to Joe & Donna Timney.  WTG Joe on the 2-club ride.

Huge thanks to Scott Guthrie Racing for giving me the opportunity to ride one of the baddest bikes on the planet - Todd Dross, Debbie Dross & Josh Owen make it all work smoothly, helping everyone while riding themselves, and of course Scott made it all happen. Ellen & Lauren, Amanda & Jake, the list goes on, thanks to all.

Jim & Jamie Gilnack put on a perfect seafood bonanza to top it off on Monday in Popham, thanks again, see you next year.

We didn't quite catch up to Wild Bill Warner, even after he gave us a chance with a hurt engine, but we had fun trying. Congrats to Bill for an amazing performance, I know you will go faster.

Here's a few grainy pics from my phone.

Walt Kudron & son on the naked H2. Best speed 244.

Joe ran several high 190s before digging deep for a 200.xx and the white hat, on Deb's 1302 nitrous Busa.

With minutes before the track closed, we hot lapped the faired H2, but couldn't quite scrape 270.

Thanks to everyone posting reports and pictures for those of us who didn't make it. I really like the table picture Dean. A true rogues gallery of many of the truely best people in LSR; but why is Al at the back corner of the table? Was it a buffet or something?

[sabat]

The pic is really crappy, I think you're looking at Josh Owen, as Al didn't make it to Loring.

(I won't tell Josh)

Congrats again Dean, I was really hoping you'd squeak past the 270 mark.  Next year!

Thanks. I'll bring the ZX10 to World of Speed, I can't make Speed Week. Probably see you there Fred?

[fredvance]

I will look forward to seeing you at WOS.
