WERA at VIR March 19-21 2010

We spent the last 3 days at VIR with the nice folks from WERA. The weather was terrific and although it threatened Sunday afternoon, the rain just passed us by. This was a good outing for us. I have finally figured out
how to work with the Yamaha R6 and Alex is hungry for the hunt. Every race this weekend he was grided at the back of the pack. There is no qualifying, you grid based on the date you register for the race. Since we register at the track we always end up in the back of the grid. This time however Alex spent the races riding forward position after position until the 6 lap race was over. A couple of the races were 2 wave starts with our entry at the back of the second wave. So needless to say he was on his game to race forward for one 2nd and two 4th place finishes. Last year at this event he was finishing 18th and 20th.

This morning Alex is on his way home to Georgia and back to school. AMA is at Auto Club Speedway in California this weekend. We will be back with AMA at Road Atlanta on April 16th-18th. I wonder what the Lt. is doing, so far away, so grown up now, serving like so many others, so true, so proud.....Go Army!!!
