ParticipantWhat is hard to see in the last photo is that Jansen is really far from full lock, but rather hooked his driving suit on the large knob attached to his steering wheel.
You could really have some fun by photo shopping some
of these Jansen pics. But you know what they say “sometimes the truth is stranger than fiction”I have a message on my cell from Jansen? Hopefully there is no Pepe head found in my bed?
Rick Schmidt
ParticipantSteamboat you silly.
That last photo was of PEPE my little mule. He really kicked and bucked. Then I learned how to adjust a chassis! I for the life of me cant figure out where that was.
Don’t let the other “paparazzi” photos fool you.
Have you no shame??? And yes, I am sexually challenged look at my package. I want to share my mojo! I tell ya, it’s a good thing I have the aerodynamic ‘do nowadays I’d be beatin’ em off like you guys.
Driving starts Sunday after the race. Appointments strongly encouraged
See what I mean about Teeing them up Mike? Every word was in there?
Now back to the regular scheduled programming.

ParticipantThese spy photo’s really tell the story of “The Shoe”
Kirk, if you ever get to the point of streching tires with a smooth technique known only to a few drivers in this era. You too will be there!
Please note: the hands below the knees technique perfected by Jansen (see previous photo) complimented by a VERY nice “pick up / stay up” of the inside tire. Smooth rotation, simply driving it through the corner. You know what they say “if you feel fast, you probably aren’t” God, I just got goose bumps :bow

Rick Schmidt
ParticipantYes, yes, please note Jansens perfectly Erect driving posture! If you’re lucky Mr Deason, Jansen will train you personally!

Although you can’t see him, experts agree “he’s probably got a pretty good lean going on at the time of the following photo? Judging by the white knuckles sticking out of the door, one can assume he is feeding out a little TP with the other hand?

Then there is the “don’t look up my skirt” photo of Jansen. He is trying to explain to everyone why his eyes are so red? He said allergies? Or something?

Rick Schmidt
ParticipantI had heard a something about Deason going for Fields seat, again? Maybe you guys should get a room?
Mike Jansen
And I LOVE going downhill.

Oh Jansen! No one can tee em up like you!
Rick Schmidt
ParticipantThank you so much for the continuing updates Gayle!
We are all keeping Rich and your family in our thoughts. I really hope to be able to haul him out to the races next year for a little spectating. Stay strong, you are an amazing woman and partner for Rich. He is very lucky to have you there pulling on the rope everyday.

ParticipantRicky…..If your not trying to qualify for the grands it doesn’t need to be sealed does it?….And what about your stock moto?
It is a motor that did not come from the USA and had no passport. I expected to have to put it completely back together after the event. I just wanted to make sure before showing up there, and after speaking to Jim, it is a no go. Which is cool.
We had hopes of competing with Crow and apologize to him in advance but things can change. As far as the Stock Moto goes, we wanted Crow! We’ll come cheer for you guys and save the Stock Moto & $ for some upcoming events.
Maybe Rodney will loan you the suitcase Animal.
Just a thought
Good thought Mikey!
While I did have a little bit of a tough time figuring out the Rmax differences from Tag in the rules, It clearly states no Turbo or Supercharging!!!
Hey Mikey, arent you the same guy that brought me tequila, cigarettes and naughty books to the hospital right after my surgery? Well… I’m out of tequila? 😉

ParticipantRodney,
It looks like you’re at the number with Andy and John coming from California. So with Andy you would have at least one other Rotax to run against, I think John is using a local Birel which seems to favor the Leopard this year. And of course mister 20 lap Jansen will be there Motori and all.
We have Brians Rotax which is not sealable and not Rmax per the website and inquiry. So unless we can find a loaner motor for the weekend, we’ll be there cheering / helping and saving our money for an effort in 2010.
I believe Jim mentioned this qualifying as a Rmax stamp Rodney? Might be a chance to break out for the Grands.
Jim, is Rmax and Tag both running Mojo’s or Mg’s? I looked around the website for a few and all I saw was Rmax for Rotax in Tag?
Do it Rod.
