Lightweight Class Racing in the Mid-West

[wolf44]

picked up my sv from ducati omaha yesterday...their garage is full of LW racers

[Ducati23]

Would you quit telling people that..Rich still thinks we're full of it. 

I'm so excited to race LW again!!!  I haven't looked forward to racing this much in 20 years.

I'm having a hard time keeping up with you Dan.  Didn't you sell an SV last fall and buy an RC51?

with a little help from my friends and a pinch of luck (I should have alot this year as I had NONE last year) I'll be running some lightweight stuff this year.  Looking forward to banging bars wtih you guys!! 

with alot of luck I'll have the R6 back in shape too racing 2 bikes!!!

Now I just gotta lose "half a becca" so I dont get dusted in the straights!   

diet/workout regiment in full effect!!!

well first I got a deal I couldn't refuse with the RC, then clayton offered me a deal on a trade for my rc for an sv that I couldn't refuse.  So in a round about way I came out with the same bike I had last year except built the way I wanted

needs a paint job..... ::)

Leave it unpainted!  Shiny new paint is a gravity magnet!

Update photo to show what I'll be riding in LW. A plain bone stock 1000SS with slip-ons. Nothing special. It's only apart so I can go over it to be sure it'd be allowed on a track and maybe it'd pass tech inspection.  SV riders need not worry. This exceptionally slow bike will barely find it's way 'round a track much less do it quickly.    It'll be a struggle to ride it, but someone had to represent Ducati in GP/MW so I volunteered. I hope I can keep up with those fast riders on this pile...

I see you have some of those UGLY NFC Racin' lightened rotors

[Ducati23]

Yeah they suck, sorry but Lonny said it'd only weigh 1 lb, but they weigh 1.1 lbs so we're really pissed.   

Yeah the NFC rotor is way cool as is the Ti hardware, light sprockets, ceramic bearings - you know bone stock Ducati parts.
I think we're putting a NFC rotor on every SS and Monster we put out on the track this year.  I have some more to send out to Lonny soon.

hey those are some shiny forks you have there
