What defines a Bull Ring.

Standing between them is like touching a Tesla Coil, your hair stands on end and you really don't know if letting go will cause you to be electrocuted. Pete's deal with crashing in qualifying at the Clash Championship still comes to mind.

Yoshi on the other hand is a quiet racer, doesn't say much at trackside except the occasional "See ya" when he passes you. Much like Hicks does. But when it comes down to it, like Yoshi said, Sequoia is Pete's track and he has won probably 80% of the races there. We have a bull ring under construction here in Bakersfield that will be part of the next series starting in July. Based on the Lowe's Motor Speedway it is banked at 20 degrees and is textured with the brown Fleck-stone paint. It looks great so far but is a long way from having lapes run on it.

Need to do some tuning, I was running consistently in the mid 2.40's but it still has a bit of a push. It may be the plastic guide pin though, that thing is really short and it won't take much to deslot.

I only say "See ya" when I pass Pete, which is rarely. Better than the "Opps" he does when he passes me and shows me the wheel. I think those big aluminum wheels help him do that bump and run to where it doesn't completely deslot you but picks your car up just enough that you lose power for a second while he runs off and leaves you. You back off thinking you've just been crashed when all the while you're in your slot and the race is leaving you behind. At least Mr. Champion has the decency to knock you completely out of the slot and halfway to the fence.
