ITSA Goes South

We made our trip to the Vintage Festival at Barber Motorsports Park last month. The ITSA Crew laid out the trials for AHRMA. As usual the Crew laid out a killer trials, we sent some of the entrants back to the truck after the first loop whining because it was too tight. The truth of the matter is, the turns weren't too tight, they had pine needles and rocks under the pine needles. Which, subesequently added to the ground-pounding activity of dabbing. Obviously some folks can't deal with this. Learn to turn.

The Guru won the Modern Classic Expert class, the Guru's James with Slim Jim Sturtevant aboard won the Classic Expert class. Mike Parsley was tops in Premier Lightweight Expert, and the Trialsrooster was victorious once again on the Chicken in Premier Lightweight Intermediate. In Modern Classic Novice Pee Wee came out on top.

But, what beats all is that the Nubster had his best national finish yet, taking the third spot on the podium in Modern Classic Novice. Go Nubbie!

One of the best things to come out of the week-end was that at the auction in the Barber Museum on Saturday night Mike Parsley was the winning bidder for a Matchless trialer that he had been stressing/lusting about ever since he saw it on the list for the bikes to be auctioned. As you might be able to tell by the S.E.G. (shite-eating-grin) on Mikey's face he was fairly pleased with his new acquisition. The pictures of him jumping up and down didn't come out due to motion blur.......
