So its been awhile, new super stressful job....anyway. Here it goes....
My son Joey can use some help between Hangtown and Glen Helen. All winter we had a ride with a "team", Joey was able to train at GPF thanks to Terri and Josh Woods. Came home in late April to broken promises and a "supposed" friend who weaseled his way in and left Joey out on his own.
He's more determined than ever, crated his race bike up on Monday ( this is the first year we have had both a race bike and practice bike thanks to MGX Unlimited) and sent it to a carpet dealer in Rancho Cordova. With the help of Team Gus he's getting it to the track. He's not old enough to rent a car and has no idea how he's getting around, but he left today. His dad bought a last minute ticket yesterday and is going out for this weekend but has to be back for work on Monday.
I'm hoping once he gets to Hangtown he can hook up with someone, but if not is there anyone here that could maybe help him out with getting around, or hopefully just being his mechanic at Glen Helen?
Yea I know its a tough sport, but watching him ride since he's been home its nothing short of amazing, his confidence is 1000% and giving it one more shot..
.
I'm really hoping no help would be needed but it never hurts to ask.
Thanks Guys!!

Gook luck to Joey, I hope he has a great season.
Surely someone Probably has some connections locally to help the kid out. All the works connection peeps are local there as well.
Since he's going the same place most are anyway. Without a DL or being able to rent a car yet makes it rough.
The Shop
Luxon 4-Post Bar Mounts
$189.95 - $239.95
DeCal Works Huge Plastic Inventory of UFO and Polisport kits.
I live 30 minutes from track ,just let me know if there is anyway i can help.
I raced a bunch of roadrace nationals in the early 1990's and I wish I had documented some of the trials and tribulations of going at it on a shoe string budget. Hopefully Joey is doing that, even if it's just for himself to watch years later. Good idea Vaughn!

Or like G54 said I can help him out anyway I can
