Thanks bro! Had this been a trackday, or maybe a race weekend not as a provisional novice, I would have been more inclined to thug it out lol. I wanted a clearer head space for a first race weekend though.
Been there man, done that. I've even tossed in the towl on a fantastic sunny day just because I wasn't feeling it. Yeah, you made the right decision. I see a toy hauler or a truck tent in your future. 😀
I need something! The wife likes to come with me so for now I'm looking at a glamping tent set ups with ac lol. I'm thinking portable ac unit, that can then be used in an enclosed trailer later down the line.
I total my truck in DC while driving from Boston to Homestead in 2021. I rented a truck the next day picked up my trailer from the Tow yard and drove to Homestead and raced. in the beginning of my racing career, I would have turned around. Now I race in the rain, fix bikes at the race and go race. a racing friend explained to drive 20 plus hours and not race is a waste of time and money. Are you planning on racing ASRA too? I was suppose to go to Talladega, but race bikes are ready yet. Good luck this season.
Man that sounds like an a good story to tell! How was the truck totaled, but not the trailer? Was it a mechanical failure of some sort? Yessir, I hear you, I think if I were a seasoned racer, these road bumps probably wouldn't have been as disheartening lol. I agree, anything over 4 hours, I probably would've raced. Thats a huge factor, time and money spent to get to the track. No sir, no ASRA yet, just WERA. I plan on trying Tally again in April, I can't make Roebling in March.
Another great video. Sorry it didn't work out as planned, but you are a very humorous and good story teller. Glad to hear you at least got your race certification. I believe you made the right call in not pushing it and calling it early. Love all your videos, keep on keeping on. Take care.
Man if you didn't have bad luck you would've had no luck at all. Sorry to hear your race weekend didn't go as planned but at least you got that certification done.
Main reason I didn't was the wet track lol. The money I spent on accommodations, I definitely didnt want to buy more tires lol. I showed up with two sets to begin with lol. I wish I could make Roebling, but I'll try Tally again in April. Good luck, I hope your first weekend goes much better than mine 😅
Man I don't blame you, I would've just called it a wrap. I guess that's what Trevor means by the "exotic" town of Munford/Anniston lol. This type of stuff happens on my track weekends everynow and then. I really feel like having a toy hauler/camper would just make life so much easier.
Shidddd. I would have called it done once. you called the tow truck ..I normalized saying fuck it this year and im never looking back 😂😂😂😂What my truck stuck fuck it Im going home😭😭😭😂😂😂😂
I hear you bro! I definitely wanted to at least do Friday since the trackday and race class were already paid for. One of the benefits of racing is you can choose the day of whether you want to pay to play or not. Trackdays you have pay in advance😅
Yo man that was a lot of BS. But after putting up with all that and getting that race certification I prolly would have ran it in the rain Saturday. Also could you make a video on the process of obtaining the certification?
I appreciate you turning a rough weekend into a funny story for the rest of us! I think you made the right call.
Thanks Chris!
All good man! These are the challenges we face as club racers. Good on you for trying to push through them, but ultimately, you made the right call.

Thanks for showing love, I appreciate you!
Wow what an adventure... Yeah I would have called it quits.... Your skills must be rememberable to get that certification good job
It was frustrating to say the least! Thank you!
Man if you didn't have bad luck you would've had no luck at all. Sorry to hear your race weekend didn't go as planned but at least you got that certification done.
We'll try in again in April! What days are you going to be at Barber?
I’m doing my first weekend in a couple weeks at Roebling but the way your weekend went has me nervous lol. I would’ve just sent it!

yeah man last time I had a bunch of stuff going wrong like this, I crashed at Nashville super speedway
Never go against your gut so good call imo
Talladega Creekside Resort 20 minute from the track and you can kayak the creek if it rains my friend.
Just checked them out, looks like a great option, thanks for the info!
@@Master_Yoshi Glad I could help.
Shidddd. I would have called it done once. you called the tow truck ..I normalized saying fuck it this year and im never looking back 😂😂😂😂What my truck stuck fuck it Im going home😭😭😭😂😂😂😂

Gad dahmn that's a lot of BS to deal with!! You made the right choice. Can you race as a B group trackday rider or have you moved up to A group?
Yessir, you can race as a mediocre group rider 😅. With that being said, I of course would be more competive if I could run A pace consistently.
Yo man that was a lot of BS. But after putting up with all that and getting that race certification I prolly would have ran it in the rain Saturday. Also could you make a video on the process of obtaining the certification?
I hear you bro! And yessir, got something big in the works for that. Do you have IG or Facebook?
haha, goddamn models all sold out. I'll usually just take a sip of nyquil and sleep in the car when that happens.
I hear you! That would have been better than that pos I stayed in lol
Hey brother are going to try and race Tally the weekend of April 14th by chance? If so I just booked the Friday event so hopefully we could hang out.
Yessir! Probably won't be doing the track day that Friday, just racing on Saturday.
I editing is great
Lol "dog asshole"
Twas a terrible night lol
