Hey Bernie:
This is the Nitro Motorcycle guy. I plan on being there Thursday July 2nd. I've done some tinkering with starts. I think that I will be able to warm the bike sufficiently holding it, then lean it up against the left side of the starting ramp. The bike accelerates quick enough to keep upright. I'll be there at 2:00 when you open to practice starts from the ramp.
P.S. Hopefully it will be dry this time. I'm sorry for all of the inconvenience while learning the grip level of the bike on the wet track. Later.
