    NOLA for the 40th

    So my 40th birthday is the Friday the CMRA is racing at NOLA. Its been a couple of years since my last sprint weekend and I'm feeling the need...the need for speed! I'm thinking I should celebrate my birthday Friday night on Bourbon street, sleep all day Saturday (because that's what old people do after they party all night) and cutting some laps with my grey haired buddies on sunday.

    40 is such a milestone you should probably celebrate all night Friday AND Saturday then sleep Sunday too.

    Pretty sure Ty that you're not allowed to race in F-40 until your 50. Its in the rule book. Its the 125% rule thats applied to anyone in the CMRA hall of fame, anyone with multiple fast lap/track records, anyone that can ride a KTM fast, and anyone with a first name comprised of two letters that by itself is recognized throughout the lower 48 state motorcycle racing community. Dude, you're screwed.

    Agree with Ron. Might as well go out both nights. Or stay home. I recommend the first option.

    Of course there is that bet with Brandon...

    I look 23 (maybe 39) but feel 75 thanks to a lot of asphalt testing.

    My 45th is on Monday, but I may do the Solo 30 on Saturday, so won't get too trashed on Friday.
