Thanks man. Looking forward to talking your ear off about it soon, hah.

Thanks man. I'm planning on bringing it as hard as I can to Blackhawk in a few weeks. You've given me a ton of things to think about on where I can improve, and I think we've identified the primary blackhawk spots. At least for outright speed--race craft (and starts) is a totally different venture. I signed up for 5 races that weekend. Never done more than 3 before. Definitely going to leave it all out there in the year's final weekend. I'm going to use Friday morning practice track day to see if I can get used to GP Shift. I wanted to wait until after I had the shifting issue totally resolved, but I need something to help me find at least another half second. It's clear that standard shift is compromising my lines through several corners. So if the morning testing goes well, I'll ride with GP shift. If I find it's too much of a mental task that morning, I'll bring it back to standard and give it another shot next year. Stop breaking your bike--I want to watch you crush it out there! Thanks again for all your help.
