Am I reading this right, Motofill Greg has 36-40 wrapped up? Rythem Time has 36+ in his clutches? Is Matt Spencer going to lose the title at the finals due to injury?
Please fill me in.

ha ha ha ha.............not too many times you can see a true motofiller sporting a #1 plate, huh b!!!!
unless someone can pull a qualifier out that hasn't been scored yet, I guess I do have it wrapped up.
My son Spencer is sitting in the number 2 spot right now, but he will have to have the race of his life at the finals to stay in the running.
later

Greg, good for you!!! I will look forward to seeing it on your bike! Tell Spencer to just keep at it. It always takes a little while to adjust in Expert. He will be fine.
Hey b come out and say hi once in a while. I want to come out to RMR and check out the races you guys have been running! I can be the water boy!!!

Total props to you Greg & I mean that. Iv'e only tasted the State plate once since 93', I got it in 97'. Iv'e come damn close in the past like who ever won in the main got it but only once have I won it. Two of the greatest local races I have ever been involved in was the SCF main in 31-35 cruiser (98'), it came down to Spencer, Kevin Sleater & myself, whoever won the main was the champ. If memory serves me right Sleater got the holeshot with me in second & Spencer in 3rd. Spencer gets me in the 3rd corner & out skills Sleater in the rythem section for the win & title.
2 years ago it came down to Miller & me tied with points, I got the holeshot in the main & lead all the way till the last corner when I was bit by the snake. He passed me & got the title.
Consistancy is the word & you pursued it.

Thats right Greg. You earned it! I admire you sticking with it. A lot of guys quit way before this point! By the way, people who talk a good race but spend most of their time in the stands and quick to critisize but slow to "show" us how it's done are the real moto fillers! Oh yeah, they don't have a #1 state plate either! A heart felt congrats to "The State Champion" Greg Prawitt! Rich Hardy

Thanks for the support guys.
b, you may not realize how much you are part of the reason I stuck with it early on. Your words of encouragement kept me motivated enough to keep trying. So, thanks to you!!
OK, OK, I'll save my acceptance speach for later. lol
Anyway, I'll keep rollin' along. And as far as Spencer goes, I don't think his motivation wavers much. He is determined to make it to the top ranks in expert and beyond, and he keeps me training right along with him.

Congrats Greg! And a "Pre-Congrats" to ALL of our soon-to-be crowned State Champions!
I had hoped to give it a go in class, but Melton and Elliot healed up too fast from their injuries to give me a chance!
Looking foward to a great time at RAD Sunday Sept 12th for the SCF!
