Hey Ron, banter is what it's all about. Being a former AMA CCS racer and 
current active track day guy riding in the expert class(and I don't 
boast-only to establish my perspective on close quarter track 
riding..........). I was curious if you guys were on the track. Riding at 
our level, aggressive, clean passes and a degree of intimidation by way of 
bike placement on the track provide me, I think, with a slightly different 
opinion on what is too aggressive and what is not. I don't get passed that 
much on the track, so when it does happen, it pretty much has to be quite a 
bold move to do so, and anyone watching would probably think something along 
the lines of your reaction to the Rossi pass. I currently ride a GSXR600 on 
the track, and have raced open class bikes, but I can't imagine what these 
990's are like. Anyway, I always enjoy reading your posts. And you too, 
Kevin. Remember me? We met out on the deck at Hill House at Laguna.
