Duke Racing Spends Labor Day in the Hamptons.

Early Friday morning, September 1, Doug Pinkney, loyal Duke Racing Pit
Chief, arrived at the Duke Racing HQ and we took off for the scenic
Bridgehampton Race Circuit on Long Island.  We made good time, only
hitting traffic in the last few miles.  The Hamptons are an amazing
place: where else can you see a Cobra, an XJE, and something Italian
in the same used car lot?  We stopped for lunch at a diner, and this
couple came in to eat.  Their chauffeur stayed outside in the Rolls.
I kid you not--that actually happened.

We found geek.racing (Tedd Speck and his pit crew John) pulled in next
to them and unloaded.  First practice on Friday was quite a shock; I
hadn't been on a motorcycle for over a month, and boy did it feel
wierd.  Overall it went well; I was below 2'10", maybe 10 seconds faster
than my last trip to the Bridge all thanks to the Team Suzuki
Endurance school.  

Someone dumped oil in 5....

Doug bought Hardy's bike.

Saturday SS, bad start, good race, 8/13. lifting the rear under
braking. Tedd tore up his waterpump, Tony passed people in rookie, 
and MW SB.  bar-b-q.

Sunday LW prod, 5 bikes, bad start, good race 4/5, passed LW SB 
backmarkers, knee down in turn 6.  Tony passed people in MW SS

Someone died in MW SS.

Eric Wood set a new track record.
