[griffinzx10]

Well i got the funds to go racing, i have been hoping this was going to pan out for quite a few months now. I missed the Jennings races earlier this year, and lucky for me, there are 2 Jennings race weekends on the CCS FL schedule.

So now we have it, check written and mailed............. FUCK YA!!!!!!!!!!!

October 1st and 2nd CCS Race weekend at Jennings.


I want to thank my TSB Racing sponsors who have helped me with this:

Czaia and Gallagher

[griffinzx10]

Wait? There's a CCS class for Vespas?!

yep.... its a super competitive class, you wouldnt like it, FULL DISCLOSURE about everything... And most races are at THAT track you dont like..

[onesportbikerider]

...in the ghe--t-tooh! yep. fack that!


Good luck!

[camel]

Very cool griff. I'm taking that last week in september off. maybe I can get away to make it up there.

[Jamie]

check for what? Umbrella girls work for free......


I am seriously considering not being your best friend anymore

[griffinzx10]

Very cool griff. I'm taking that last week in september off. maybe I can get away to make it up there.

that would be cool..... the races are a blast, and you'd get to see some crazy fast guys racing CCS expert races... Guys like Villa (who races in AMA), D-Wire, Mesa, Melka.....
Watching those guys is awesome.


I am seriously considering not being your best friend anymore

Stop making promises you never keep. Now get me a sammich biotch.....

[RICO]

Congratz, just might have to make the drive and watch.
How much to get in? Same as other weekends?

[Little R6]

What is more amazing is to see JC sounding happy (outside of the bedroom)
See, money can buy happiness!!!

[griffinzx10]

Congratz, just might have to make the drive and watch.

CCS charges a higher gate fee, i think it is like 25 for the weekend...

LOL

[onesportbikerider]

...hookah got paid...

[griffinzx10]

now the one thing i gotta worry about is grid position. If i have shitty grid position, it is going to suck ass.... I hope i get a decent grid position for at least 1 of the 5 races i am doing

[onesportbikerider]

If your check went in this late, you know you'll be in the back. Better practice that launch. 1st turn of the race is always fun.

[griffinzx10]

yeah i know, i was hoping to have had the check off like a month and a half ago.. ugh... gonna be interesting

[onesportbikerider]

shake 'n' bake

[griffinzx10]

That just happened

[ianjoub]

What classes?

I am thinking about making my comeback that weekend, but my bike only qualifies for 2 races: GTO and Unlimited Superbike....

[seatec]

congratz

[Spd_dmn_05]

That's very cool. Congratulations and good luck!

[griffinzx10]

I have a bunch of fronts, but a fresh set would be really NICE

[LilRichard]

Congrats JC, glad you get to go!

[griffinzx10]

thanks lilrichard

[moke]

Mailable grid entry, never understood that when I raced in Wera they would at least grid you by your laptimes. Good luck bro!

[griffinzx10]

Mailable grid entry, never understood that when I raced in Wera they would at least grid you by your laptimes. Good luck bro!

yeah, agreed, not my favorite thing, but what can you do.... It's not like i am going to change how CCS FL runs its program, so i just accept it, shut up and play by the rules.
Thanks

[ianjoub]

Mailable grid entry, never understood that

Having pre entries make staffing appropriately a lot easier for the promoter.

[Mrs. D]

Having pre entries make staffing appropriately a lot easier for the promoter.

Agreed. But maybe there is a middle ground somewhere? Just doesn't seem right that those that have the $$ paid first get better position. Pre-registration discount???? and grid the races based on lap times? Instead of $55 per race or whatever it is, make is $75 day of race.

Just a thought

Just a thought

Henry (CCS FL) doesn't cash the pre entry checks until after the race weekend. You can write the check and pre enter for the Dec. Homestead round now, won't get cashed until after the race....

[StanO]

Griff, glad to hear you're heading back to the track.

And I know that (like me), your favorite flags are American, Green and Checkered!

come find me in the North 40..... Look for the TSB banners hanging from the EZ ups, or the big black trailer that says The Chop Shop.

Come by, say hi, and hang out

[Squidward269]

Cool man what class do you run?

[griffinzx10]

Ill be running a GTO race, which is a 9 lap race.

Middle weight supersport
Middle weight superbike EX/AM split
Heavy weight supersport EX/AM split
heavy weight superbike EX/AM split

so ill be running 5 races on sunday...

EX/AM split this means they combine expert and amatuer in the same race, usually they send the Experts off first then they send us amatuers off after.

If you dont run quick enough, you end up getting lapped by the Experts and lose a lap on a 6 lap sprint race...

[Chameleiana]

G l

[Squidward269]

Cool hopefully i get there in time to catch one

[sparkmaker]

Getting ready to head out!!! I'm Soooooooo happy, seems like forever ago. Three races left.
