SLO is hosting a learning/practice day @ IMI starting 10am June 17th. We will also have a BBQ. Everyone is more than welcome to join (racers and street riders). So far about 21 heads are attending (due to change) so invite ur friends.

On the weekends there's always a lot of go cart rentals going on.. I used to go during the week which wasn't bad a few years ago.

Yes, and they have priority so plan accordingly.

I'll be on hand to take pics. Doesn't really help the old hands, but the new folks sometimes get something out of it as the teacher types can point out technique things in the photos.

At previous IMI days we've had people that wanted to get copies of some of their pics but sometimes it's hard to identify people (especially the people I don't know when everyone shows up on a green kawi with a black helmet). So I had an idea of putting some blue tape numbers on people's tanks if they thought they'd want some copies. Easier for me to identify so I can get copies out faster. That is if you don't mind having a number on your tank in a picture. I can also post up thumbnails so you can find them yourself, but previous days have shown that 300-500 pics can be a chore to scan through.

Awesome Will, great pics in the past from a super picky fella haha. Will be good seeing you again.

as for the barbeque, I probably won't pursue it, one of the guys that was bringing it, has to leave early so it will not be coming out. I will bring drinks though. "Some" snacks and such are available there for those that forget.

Hot indeed. Bike was showing 100 degree air temp on the ride home.

In difference to Slo picking on me for being picky, here's the shots, all of them (well most - explained below). These are straight from the camera so if you want something a little "tuned up" let me know.

These pics are from the horseshoe (taken from inside the turn) and the final turn before the front straight. I also have pics taken from the stands of the horseshoe showing the other side of the bikes, unfortunately those shots all include plates so I'll need some time to blur them before I post them.

Hover your mouse over the larger pic on the right and a list of sizes will pop up, select original (or whatever size you're interested in) and a window will open showing that size pic with the ability to download it. You can also click on the larger picture and a window will open showing medium size with other sizes available at the top of the window.

I had a ton of fun out there. Nice to see some of you again and meet some new people. Hope to see you all out there again. Also thanks for the shade and the food. Shade probably saved me from getting heat stroke...hot out there.

Thanks for inviting me through PM, Slo! It was good to get on a track again. I only put in those 2 sessions but was glad to quit while I was ahead ;) I'm still getting used to the dry heat and the altitude and I was exhausted when I got home.

And thank you Will for taking the photos!

Only posting this for Hyde since I didn't know he refused to be her umbrella boy.... And I had gone up with my umbrella and gave it to him haha.....perfect timing as I didn't know they had the discussion.

Sorry Will, I won't be copying anymore pics, I just had to post this one:

Well, that was a blast of a day. Got the crash I wanted, I never knew crashing was going to feel so pleasant. Slept 12 hours last night from the exhaustion. :)
