Ahhh thanks damir
So how was this? I had to work so I couldn't get out there.
It was good learned a lot it was quite insightful and gave me a whole lot to work on next trackday it helped me make the decision to make the jump from trackday junkie to racer
Anyone know if the photographer on turn 1 has posted pictures anywhere. It was later in the afternoon....I saw the flash go off for about 5 laps. Want to see how those turned out...
There was a photographer?
It was one of the racer's girlfriends taking pics in turn 1. I will let you know in this thread if she makes them available.
school was good. I mounted my camera wrong so I got a great video of my gauge cluster all afternoon

Joe,
Do you know where you finished in the mock race? It looked like about 5th. You were definitely holding your own out there.
I got some pictures of my little blowup on the straight. It was just water hitting the headers and turning to steam when the coolant hose popped loose. It's all fixed now, so hopefully the gremlins are out.

I can safely say, when those pictures were being taken, I was looking at your bike going "oh shit"
I think somewhere around 5th. after all the sorting and passing on lap one, I clung on to two other guys and we had a good pace the whole time. No real safe passes were available so we just stayed in the same order with each other and worked through lappers
It was a fun race for sure. The three of us never caught up to Brad. You're definitely getting faster dude
btw, we should try to catch another track day in a few weeks.

I didn't have a one piece in time. Do I have to wait until next year or are there other class?

CycleGear.com. They have 1 piece's for under 200... Great for the first track experience i would think. I'm thinking about doing it myself..
Interesting. I wonder if we can find someone that's owned one of these suits to see if they're any good
