Jim F · « **Reply #389 on:** January 31, 2011, 06:22:59 AM »

Hey Sam

More fitting and milling for this week

I will have to clear for the brake line for the front caliper (on the rear)
I see that bill has mocked up the lines and that will do to see about where to mill
so far everything is adding up
one or two more trips to bill and that should do it

Bill if there is anything else that has to be made or welded let me know this week.

see you soon

Jim

Darlington web site is not showing anything for Saturday 12th March.
Carolina showing test and tune, 7-11pm Saturday night and car Grudge Sunday.
Carolina might be the place depending on how it fits in with Billy.
Thanks for the help Frank, I'm sure we will find somewhere.

Sam.

Sam, you are correct. I saw nothing for saturday. They went to saturday test and tune for the winter months and it seems the week before the 12th, they reverted back to wednesday testing. I will contact Bill Wilson to see if they might still be open that day. If your partner is considering a visit to family in Myrtle Beach, you might want to think about Fayetteville Motorsports Park on sunday the 13th. Its 1/4 mile also. If you want to give some thought to 1/8th mile tracks, let me know and i can give you a few other options on both saturday and sunday.

Sam,somewhere in the Carolina's we'll test.Probably won't be time to visit folks.Bill

Jim F · « **Reply #393 on:** January 31, 2011, 05:38:29 PM »

I might have to bring the bike over to my shop for that but well see
have to come up with some ideas and go from there

Sam Green Racing · « **Reply #394 on:** February 01, 2011, 08:14:56 AM »

JW, will you be bringing your weather station or do I bring mine?

Sam.

Sam Green Racing · « **Reply #395 on:** February 01, 2011, 01:26:48 PM »

Hey Frank, quite a few people over on Dragbike.com rate Jackson as being the best option, did you manage to speak to Bill Wilson?
One of your mates, Keith LeBlanc is going to try to get there as well, he sure speaks well of you.

Sam.

jweeks · « **Reply #396 on:** February 01, 2011, 06:32:47 PM »

Sam,
I can bring mine, but with small differences between yours and mine, do you want to swap back and forth depending on if I make it to your next event? This is consistency bracket racing. We're trying to eliminate variation. I'm a variable that you can't keep counting on for your events. I still have a few meets that I want to race that may conflict with where you run. I'm trying to help, not run for crew chief!

JW

Bill/BentON Racing · « **Reply #397 on:** February 01, 2011, 08:32:23 PM »

Sam,I think that means you bring yours!

.
Ordered ignition wires today and other pcs. to finish brakes.
Big Jim found c/guard @ Tiger,lots of drag stuff.
Had to finish other work:CB 350K carbs.Checkout the float!

More tomorrow.Thanks all,Bill

Thanks' billy, I'll have to get some new batteries for my weather station, it reads freezing all the time. (could be because it lives with me in England)
When Jimmy gets in touch with Tiger Racing, he needs to speak to Guy, he was going to come over and stay with me when he went over to Holland or Belgium in 09. Tell him the guard is for me, ya might get a bit knocked off. (or he might charge you a lot more)

I thought you were our crew chief, why am I paying you millions of bucks? I thought it was for a full season not just every now and then.
