Yea, I still receive my monthly MXA magazine and have seen the technologies working their way into the bikes over the years. When they began reporting on changing ignition mapping with your smart phone I began to glaze over and tune out. I fight through and troubleshoot technology issues every...

"Crank case pressure sensor". . . . . that's crazy. Might as well have a crank angle sensor, MAS sensor and O2 sensors while they're at it. And then include an OBD-II port so you can pull down the bikes' diagnostic codes.

This thread was a lot of fun. You start thinking back on movie and television motorcycle scenes, and you can't help not getting stuck in memory lane. The CHIP'S movie (2017) Owen Wilson scenes were pretty cool even though mostly done on Ducati's. . . . Movie was actually pretty funny.

Watching my old THE GREAT OUTDOORS moto video's I used to enjoy the short interview clips of the Pro racers. I recall a clip of when Ernesto Fonseca was a top pro, but he was a little dismayed at his results that season. He seemed very humble and down-to-earth in that he felt like he was...

When the risk issue comes up, it always feels like a "Debbie-downer" subject, which is unfortunate. Sobering article and video. Especially when the girls' wreck happened at Lorretta's. Not expected, but my views have changed considerably on all of this. Once I noticed my grandkids interest in...

That pic of Marc posing like he belonged "in the Hood" beside that Lincoln with the 20" chrome wheels is burned in my brain. Hillarious!! :D

Like Freeh, only rode with Marc a few times over the years but always enjoyed gabbing with him in the Pits. Most of all I always appreciated Marc's presence here on Pitracer. Marc didn't always have a lot to say, but when he did keyboard into a conversation his perspective was usually brief and...

Great article. Always neat to learn about Ohio racers and track owners.

I get that. Nancy always knew the risks with us riding and racing, has witnessed many, many others getting stretchered off to local hospital, or worse yet, air lifted. She had grown much more confidant in my ability to dodge serious accidents as my riding and racing improved over these last few...

I don't post on here as much as I used to, and right now I'm not riding as much as I have over last ten years, partially due to other life projects, but also partially because I had my own wakeup call. Some of you may know this, others may not but I had weird sort of crash last year at a local...

[ Then you got D12 with there typical tracks with addition of grears and beans. ] Not that we see or hear much from the AMA districts these days, but shouldn't Grear's be District 11?

I attempted organizing my tools once. About an hour into it, threw the tools in the box and turned the garage light off. Who in the hell has time for this? ( I'm asking myself ) :D
