Can we get a roll call? Who all is coming?

We're coming with 4 bikes:
Me (turbo Busa and 2011 ZX-10)
wife: Ninja 250
Justin: Ninja 1000

+1, I'm very interested in how that 2011 ZX10 runs  :thumb:

We haven't seen any sort of schedule as to when the bikes run or how many passes we can expect, etc. Anybody?

So far, it looks like we have 100-110 racers on the grid.  We expect to get 60-70 runs per hour, or over 500 runs in if all goes smoothly.  Last year, with a field of 94, we had about 20 racers hot-lapping during the last 2 hours of the event, and one racer made a total of 22 runs.  So, I think you can expect to get several runs in pretty easily.

Edit:  Current Grid list is now posted on the Mojave Mile forums.  I'll see you all (that are coming) this weekend!

Weather for Sunday:  Low 44, high 65, sunny w/NO RAIN!  (I told you I paid off some important people!)  :hys:

Humidity 53%, westerly winds to 15 mph, which means a quartering tailwind.  Looks like good horsepower weather!

Mornin' Scott,

Yeah you will,maybe that extra "padding" you've accumulated since last year will help(works for me in that cold ass ocean). :lol:

i hope they took Accuweather advice and ran SE to NW, winds are being good today for that direction.

Looking at yesterdays wind, they dodged a serious high wind bullet.
