casing is when you're 2-3 feet too short on a double, and your engine case lands right on the top of it

It was tough to keep a good line and speed though because the bottom was all slippery bowling ball - softball sized rocks......and the water was deep enough to really slow you down....

well now you know and you can use it correctly.

Similar thing: My CR will hydroplane pretty well for 50 feet or so. Then when I get to the end of the pond/puddle the bike is moving at 10 mph but the tire is spinning at 70 mph in top gear. Once it hits dry dirt, it wheelies violently. The first time I tried hydroplaning, I didnt know that and I got put on my *** pretty hard.

Re: Track riding

I like square dishes better than round ones, because they waste less space on the table

we have both here. our round ones are plastic, which i prefer. our square ones waste less table space, but theyre made out of some ceramic composite material. Theyre ridiculously durable, can be used for a hammer to some extent, but they conduct heat too well. If i bring one outside in the winter for 20 seconds to get food off the grill, its freezing cold when i come back in, and the hot food on it starts to get cold where its touching.

Until i finally got one to chip, i thought they were really aluminum with some type of resin or epoxy coating, but theyre not.

you have a square table if i recall. definitely a no brainer for you there. I have a round table so its a little aesthetically contradictive. Firefox is now telling me that contradictive isnt a legit word.

Re: Track riding

Contradicting?
Firefox approves.

But I still think contradictive is more accurate for what im saying.
