Hey guys, the last few weeks have been rough and VERY expensive. But all of the issues are resolved and we are finishing strong and preparing for 2014.
Yes a vacation is much needed right now. We are getting the bikes where they need to be, heading to Canada this weekend to support Lorenz up there for 3 rounds. LaPorte will be running Millville for us, then we will all be back together for Unadilla(Robby included).
I am glad we ran the rounds this year to work out the kinks and get our feet wet before we take on a full season next year. We're making this happen, no matter what comes at us.
Right before RedBud we bought a dually, it broke down numerous times on the way there and the way back. After a $1k tow and a $5k repair bill it will be ready in the next day or two.
We also placed an order with KTM for $5k to get the motors all back to stock for PC to make it happen. New cranks, cylinders, heads, carbs, etc. And that price was all at cost. :/
Our motors are about to head out west to get some Pro Circuit massaging.
For those that have asked the cost of running a pro team.. We are well over $100k just for the half season so far.
Tough times, but it makes me want it that much more. Things are looking great for '14!
