What is the gear requirement for IMI

[tecknojoe]

I have a buddy that needs to stop being a pussy and come to IMI. What are the gear requirements for the asphalt track? Does he have to have something that zips together or just head to toe street gear?

[Mother Goose]

Last time I was there, it was gloves, helmet, and boots that go above the ankles.

[madvlad]

I think at least ankle high boots but heard that there are people that ride in jeans out there and with basic gear which of course I wouldn't recommend in case of a wipe out lol

[sprtbkbabe]

There's gear rqmt at IMI? :lol::lol::lol:

[tecknojoe]

Nice.

Nate, lets go you pussy

[tecknojoe]

There's gear rqmt at IMI? :lol::lol::lol:

hell if i know, i'm too busy goin fast to look at my outfit :crazy:

[madvlad]

Dude Nate you have to go to a track day man, I used to be scared too man but it was the best choice I ever made. Just the superstreet race gave me a huge confidence boost and then it got me doing track days as well. DO EEEEEET!

[Sean]

Jacket, gloves, helmet and a box to put the parts of your bike into after you crash. :lol:

[Sully]

For some reason, I though a jacket was required also? :dunno:

So you're calling your friend a "Pussy" because he won't go to the track? :wtf:

[Cornfed]

You know that's a term of endearment in this circle. You should hear what I call Grim. :blowup:

He knows I'm kidding

We've been talking about taking him to IMI or HPR for the last year

We'd just be going to see what it's like to be on a closed course where you can turn the bike

He should do a Superstreet with us this year :D :devious:

This is how guys hug.

:slappers:

I won't rush him into that, it can be overwhelming. I DO however want to get him out there for a lapping day. He's already workin on the wife to buy a pair of leathers

I'm probly ruining their marrage. Nate please view the "alimony" thread before it's too late :lol:

True, he'll never look back after that once he hits HPR lol.... pre-nup son, PRE-NUP IT UP! :lol:

Just the superstreet race gave me a huge confidence boost and then it got me doing track days as well. DO EEEEEET! WTF...I probably did my first track day when you were still a freshman in HS!

Oh wait...wrong Nate :lol:

Whatevs dude, that sounds like a challenge to me son! LET'S GO! haha

[bulldog]

Whatevs dude, that sounds like a challenge to me son! LET'S GO! haha It is one option I have considered for the CBR, but without a truck or a vehicle to tow with it doesn't make sense, so looking for a truck first....then maybe a track bike (I really prefer a dedicated track bike over a street bike)

I really miss the closeness of 2nd Creek :( If that were still around I'd probably hang up my street riding days and only do track days. IMI is still a bit far for me because I hate to drive and don't want to risk not towing it in case I do crash

You even old enough to ever ride 2nd Creek Damir? You have to remember us old guys use to be like you all tearing up streets daily from all our riding. Then I got old and priories changed. I remember I use to rush home from work just so I could do Deer Creek, to Bear Creek, to Morrison nearly everyday before traffic kicked in. Now I rush to the gym :lol:

[kingtut]

Oh fook. A whole thread devoted to calling me a pussy, thanks Joe:lol:

Let me process this for a second...

I wish I could've rode out there actually, heard great things of that track before bitch ass people complaining about noise shut it down... I'm not as slo as you think mang :D

Second too long *buzzer* :lol:

[tecknojoe]

We can load up on ur truck. take ur ish with u to work. Meet at IMI ~12:30

40 buck. easy peasy

[kingtut]

I thought you were going to let me wreck your R6?

[tecknojoe]

:lol:

we could probly do that, i don't care either way

I am capable of more spectacular crash destruction on the R6 anyway

[madvlad]

Even during the aftermath it'll still run guaranteed :lol:

[kingtut]

:lol:

Well you did say hookers were on you next time. I'd be willing to trade that for a touch of R6 seat time.

Seriously though, that is a nice offer...

I normally wouldn't lend out a track bike but IMI on a friday is empty and we'd be goin slow anyway. I wouldn't mind doin that. We're not gonna be hitting the kind of speeds that HPR is capable of. for that, you use the kawi

:mwave:

[Grim2.0]

What if some wild Sumo's appear and just fuck your shit up?

[tecknojoe]

you gotta catch me first :eyebrows:

[BrianShaw]

When are the open track days for motorcycles?

[Grim2.0]

For IMI its everyday, you just have to get off the track when the GoCart people come out, then they alternate between carts and Bikes.

For HPR you have to go to their website and look at the calender.

Fo sho... I was only halfway serious about accepting your bike in lieu of prostitutes. I honestly wouldn't feel comfortable on someone else's bike- too much liability. That said, I'm slowww....you've seen me, ha ha.
Only reason I even ponder the question is because I couldn't have my bike ready in time.

whatchu need? Maybe we'll just fart around town this weekend then

I've got a facked ankle right now so I'm down to work on bikes whenever. can't do shit else right now:tomato:

[BrianShaw]

Excellent, I was going to order some leathers next week. The bike I have is still new to me, so I have a bit of a learning curve. Probably need to change brake pads, brake lines and tires as well.

That works too. Perhaps some more instruction specific to my bike and what to expect, rather than jumping in head first (ie. tomorrow)

This is good news though, cuz I've yet to get leather approval. Money has been going towards cycling shat lately.

[tecknojoe]

ok, we'll get together. I need a beer

so call me maybe!

[kingtut]

Ha ha, word.
