Trintypowder......I'm gonna be at HPR sept 26th, if you want to meet up again. Rybo is planning on being there as well (I'm gonna pick his brain and try not to embarrass myself)....its gonna be alot of fun. I hope the weather cooperates.

That's my birthday and you better believe I'm gonna be there!! I didn't mean to "dis" you Rybo and the Chicance day. I know you guys put on a great day. But, for the $90 "track day" guys, it sucks to see a bunch of Mondays with nothing scheduled

Funny, my birthday is just a week before. Guess I'll make that track day a gift to myself.

There it is. Will each take a few seconds off of our best times and celebrate with a little Bubbly afterward

A few seconds? lol - you are much more "optimistic" than I am. I'd be pleased with 3 tenths faster. I gotta pick up a lap timer and see where I am now...I honestly felt like I went the fastest I've gone yesterday.
BTW, did anyone see the dude that had the Troy Siahaan leathers? They said sport rider on them....was that really him or were those replica leathers? I'm sure I've read some articles he's written over the years in SR.
It'll be a happy birthday for sure.

I saw him, and wondered the same thing. I have another timer you can have Ian. It's a twin to mine, but there is a line though the middle of the display that kinda jacks it up a bit. It came with mine as a "freebie". I'll bring it and some velco for the 26th. I'm also currently debating about the Chicane Day on the 5th Lord help me and my checkbook!!!!!

Have fun on the 5th if you go....I'm gonna pick up a lap timer just like yours but I may buy the other one off of you so I can have one on each bike.

I may be out there Sept 26th as well...not set in stone just yet.
I am hurting for seat time on my new bike and learning HPR, kept getting confused on which left turn was the full throttle vs the slow speed one haha, along with which uphill right hander tightened up vs not.
Me too.... maybe.
How come Glenn never chimed in

If you have a question about the scheduling, you'll get a better response by contacting me directly rather than calling me out on a public forum. Besides, you asked "do we have to wait a month" and Scott answered that question, did he not?
The short answer is that track day participation numbers start to drop off towards the end of the season and I'm trying to drive business towards the Chicane day to help insure Scott has a financially successful event.

You begin your riding career with a bag full of luck and an empty bag of experience. The trick is to fill the bag of experience before you empty the bag of luck.
Nobody is calling you out Glenn. I know Scott's day is important and I was going until my wife informed me off her need to work and my need to watch the kiddos. My thoughts are exactly yours Glenn........the season IS winding down and Sept is kind of the last hooray for good, predictable weather. I was hoping for the 12th and the 26th, that's all. Sorry if I came across . That was not my intent.

No worries, my apologies. I learned through being MRA prez that most of the time someone asks a question in this manner, they aren't really looking for an answer, they're looking for people to jump on their bandwagon, and there isn't a response that will make them happy.
I appreciate that that wasn't your intent, but when I first saw the thread, that's how I read it. Sorry for the misunderstanding.

In all honesty Glenn, I was hoping for about 300 guys to chime in and say, "more track days". But, it didn't happen. Thanks for the work that you do to help keep all of us enjoying our sport/passion/hobby. That being said, I wish we could do it every week!!

Yeah, I do wish we had some earlier ones, especially as my bike's still ready to go and the track's still fresh in my head...

Cool, glad some CSCers are going, I know of one other who's offered to show me some better lines as well.
I'm not sure I can swing it, but I definitely would Like to do it.
I'd also need truck/trailer space, but I'll worry about that in a bit...
