Bernard, "in the dark" I get it, I'm glad I had my clear shield. If I did receive any money last weekend can you please forward it to Mike's fund raiser. Christiaan, you guys were the class of the stock Hondas, very impressed with the speed you guys had. I was also impressed with Max DiBella hanging with the big boys, awesome job. I hope all our friends in NY and NJ are doing ok after the storm.

Tim,

Thank you for your compliments. We surely enjoyed hanging with the faster KZ guys and proving stock motos can go pretty fast. Hometrack advantage also was a factor for sure.

We were actually hoping to be 'teched' as we heard that some of our competition thought we must be running mod motos. Our Swedetech engines are 100% compliant with SKUSA spec Honda (S1-4) rules, which I believe is more strict than the stock moto rules for NESKS (e.g. intake boot, reeds, carburetor).

Anyway, I am planning to run all/most of NESKS next year so I am sure we will see each other there.

Great suggestion on the prize money: on behalf of myself + teammate Cliff Kujala please donate any of our winnings to Mike's fund raiser.

Alright guys, I just got the results from John a few hours ago. Give me a few hours to go thru it and I should have them up tomorrow.

I would just like to say even with all the craziness we had this year, it was nice to see all of us get together, work together and make this series the success it is today.

We are already working on next years schedule. But the most important thing for next year is to have our events ran as professionally as possible.

We are presently working on something with NJMP that will help ease the pain from our last race. I'll have more details shortly.

On a personal note, I cant thank you guys enough for everything you have done for me. It is very appreciated. People dont realize how strong and supportive a racing family can be and I am proud to be part of this one. Thanks again.

* I dont know Christiaan you were running pretty damn fast.LOL

Guys while sitting in the hospital I decided to change my mind on the race results. With the final race only being one lap I decided to use the pre- final as the race results. Although it will change the prize payout a liitle bit. I dont believe it will effect the points. Please be patient I apologize it was a shitty circumstance. Thanks for your understanding. I'll be in the hospital for at least another week so please be patient.

Even though I gained many position in the first few corners of the final race. I do agree with you Mike. I just wish I wasn't so pass happy on the pre final, and was more patient. And get well soon Mike.
