2014 NSMBA Toonies

We're a bunch of vultures hey? Haha circling around this thread waiting for information.

Floppy bunny, pile of rocks, oil can would be a sick line up!!
Sometimes wishes do come true?!?

Between the next two weeks most of that wish list will come true.

For the vultures, I should have the map up in about two hours.

Stage 1: 7th Secret
Stage 2: Lower Oil Can
Stage 3: BP for one last final time.

YES

More details.

Awesome

Checked it out tonight. I approve.

Yup, really good course. It'll be super fun to ride even if it's wet on Thursday.

I think I took the wrong exit on Lower Oil Can though. I wound up a couple minutes west of the exit of Grannies on the Baden Powell. The map you posted shows the exits really close together. Hopefully I won't miss the turn on Thursday!

You won't be able to miss it on Thursday. After you cross the bridge near the bottom things get confusing, but I'll make sure it's clear.

S#$t is getting serious… People are practicing the courses for these races?!

You want a top five spot?

First a pre-walk.

Then a slow lap.

Then a fast lap.

Two back to back laps to determine the correct tires (timed comparison of course)

Then you need to break out the video analysis of line choices.

Study your gopro footage ALL DAY Thursday at the office.

This is just the week of the Toonie. In the week between Toonies you'll do vector analysis of past stage times to determine where you can do better the next week. You'll seek guidance from Vegas odds makers to help determine the course a week early to get extra pre-laps in.

The weekly Toonie is SERIOUS business. Gotta pad the palmares.

Don't forget PowerMeter analysis as well.

And practicing the rolling start tag swipe.

In my defense I rarely ride Fromme so I try get in a lap down the course before the Toonie so I know more or less where I'm going. Last night was my first time down in Lower Oilcan in years and had a blast!
