Yes they're worth it.
 
I got my yammy package tickets, however I won't be doing the paddock. The repair on the bike kind of eliminated that for me. I will still gladly pay for my share of beer or pizza though.

My tickets will be here tomorrow!!!! :thumbup Come on guys lets get this ball rolling I got Madcat coming don't make him and I drink all the beer. BBQ Thursday July 2nd my house, and I still have some space left for guests (Brutus ;))!!
 
My tickets should be here any day and I am so effing psyched I can't wait! :D I need a few days away from the girl in the worst way. I realized that we haven't been apart for more than 10 hrs in 2 years lol.
 
Is it true that there are sometimes amazing deals at the races? I've heard that vendors show up and offload some of their stuff for really good prices, is this true?

I am out of dinero brutha from the Convention... :fact
$90 for tickets bro and I have an extra parking pass for a bike, you already have a place to stay and eat so I do not want to hear the I am broke line ;) get your ass down here cause you owe you some beer!

hey Madcat yes there are some pretty good deals to be had from the vendors, as well as a few products that you can not find anywhere else. Last year I was getting some killer deals on gear, and on Sunday I almost landed an airshifter for $75 just because the vendor did not want to pack it up.

:lol I can't make the race but I can come down for the events in Monterrey Sat night. Fair enough?
 
That'd be cool imo :D I just really wanna hang out and chill for the most part. I'm in need of some leathers and bike parts so I'm hopin to find some deals.
 
I need something with pucks. I can get down low enough to happily drag on my daily commute but I can't due to no leathers. My issue is I'm a 44 waist and a 28 leg. I tried on a 44 today and the kneepads were on my ankles and i was standing on the pucks. I have a good leather jacket and would prefer not to wear a full race suit daily, but if it's my only option for being safe I will. As for other things I need some grips and I'd like to maybe get a power-commander/exhaust/other fun shit for the bike.

Lol alright bro but I expect you to come for the AMA in October ;)
 
Eric,

Still up for doing dinner at Chili's on Sunday of the races?
 
I just got my tickets in and am totally effing psyched.

I am trying to decide what route to take. Should I take the 101 or should I take highway 1? I'll be leaving around 5pm Thursday. Google maps is telling me around 2 and a half hours on 101 and 3 and a half on the 1. Do I take the scenic route or do I takes the express?
