Ultimately, I'm being safe and having so much fun!! <3
Yep, we're going to have to work on your hole-shot skillz...you may need to go to Northstar with 84 tonight.

I'm not that kind of girl! ;) I usually don't get into a pissing contest because it's much more satisfying to stand back and watch people piss all over themselves. :-) Oh! Don just told me what a hole-shot is; definitely will be useful later on for the track!

At my current skill level, out there tonight, I could wave...while sitting in the stands. Maybe drinking a beer. I don't want to hold anyone back. :idea:

I know it's a late response in regards to gripping the tank, but tank grippers on the tank really help when riding. I used to slide forward quite a bit under hard braking, but the tank grippers eliminated that.
