Well, in all reality, we shouldn't need anything, but you never know!

Thanks. We're getting the website set up now. Looks like it's
going to be a busy "off season" !

Waiting on my webmistress to update the site. I've sent her photos of
the bike as purchased and as currently configured in mid-build, along
with status reports to date, and she was supposed to build the site
this past weekend, but not a peep out of her! Ahh, volunteers!

Anyway, there is a placeholder, and it can be seen at:
http://www.screaminducracing.com

Thanks for asking!

Regards,

Tim

Does someone have one?

If there is a Moto-ST race there in 2008, yes. If not, no. The 2008
schedule has not been released by the organizers.

I'm going to bet(HOPE!!?) it will be the weekend after July 4th like
last year at Road America.

In any case, I'd BET that they will have a MOTO-ST race there in '08.

A *new* Score!!!!!......

Update:

Whoa. Never let it be said that staying up half the night or more
browsing eBay is a waste of time.

I just hit the "Buy It Now" button on a 2003 Ducati 800SS from a
dealer 365 miles away in Ohio. The 2003 800SS is the ONLY year that
the bike came with the 1000SS aluminum swingarm, adjustable forks, and
5-spoke lightweight forged aluminum Marchesini wheels, all of which
George and I had to buy separately for our FIRST 800SS, which is a
2005 model.

WOO-HOO!!!! I am pumped! We now have a primary bike and a back-up
bike! (Or, h'mmm... maybe the beginning of a two-bike team?)

And d**n, this bike cost less than the 2005 salvage-title bike plus
the cost of the upgrade parts we bought for it!

Road Trip!!!!!

Congratulations!

It's always a kick when you make a big score unexpectedly!

CONGRATS!!!

BTW another thanks for posting the Speed Channel schedule of the 2007
races. I didn't know they were going to be aired. Paul James(3rd in GST
for the year for James Gang Racing) is excited to be getting a DVD copy
of those races thanks to you and I!
