SOAR Round 5 - WOW!!!

Jody you might need to learn some Karate first and get jacked like this guy just in case something comes at ya when you break the news to them. Either that or wear all your gear and have your bike running outside for the getaway

The winners of the race had three riders that were consistantly sub 1:17 and made two stops total.
We do not go on the honor system. We use our system and back it up with manual sheets. Our system while not perfect is more dependable than you think.
There is a 100% accurate way set in place already, and has been since our very first endurance race last year. The manual sheets are handed out. Each team sends a person to the timing end of the pits. Every time the bike goes by your score person writes down the displayed number ON THE OFFICIAL CLOCK and viola. A un cheatable system. Its just the teams do not want to do this. I think next round it will be required or we will discard their manual results. This is done at EVERY endurance series so why not ours?
Every team always thinks they did better than they did. The top four GTO teams were within two laps of each other. So if they had been cheating and we didnt have anything to back it up (which we do) then its a hell of a coincidence that they all were so close on laps without comparing notes, dont you think?

This is a great idea. If everyone wrote times on the same sheet AS RIDERS passed, and timers were all together away from their teams and pits, it'd be indisputable. I didn't realize this is how other series do it.
Great idea.
Any info as to whether Lost Era will continue to be lumped together? Was this done to make time for FF or Sidecars?

Mike and Johnny were well under the 1:20 mark during their stints on the Racer5 bike, they both did an hour each, our student rider was in the 1:25's consistently for his 30 min stint and we barely fueled the final stop when mike finished up.

Mike led the race and didn't run above 1:18 for the first hour on a completely stock streetbike with nothing but bodywork and tires.

It was fun! But it did burn me out for the rest of the weekend. No more mixing Endurance and Sprint racing in the same weekend.

And they had a quick fill tank, which is pure awesomeness

I didn't know so many people were on GTAM. I'm going to have to write down your numbers beforehand next time...

+1. Saturday's qualifying after the endurance wasn't too bad but Sunday was a tough go. A good weekend overall. We won our first endurance race, I got more comfortable with the new bike and my wife kicked butt. Great to meet some new race people too!

Thanks to Ben at Prostar!

Quick question. The race was super close. In this case it could have very well turned out in a four way tie. what happens in a tie? Just wondering.

Ok I kinda figured it to be something like that. Thats awesome, thanks.

Hey there Rob!! Yeah I'v been lurking around, trying to pic up a tip or two. lol
