Can't remember how much it is but there is power you can use at the track if you can't find a genny. I'd say you could use mine but it won't quite push 3 sets.

I have some questions about the track day on the 13th. Should we pay online before getting to the track? Or can we pay once there? If we pay online do we select the winter selection of 10am - 4 pm? Is there a schedule, or is it just open?

Thanks in advance.

Yes you can pay online and it's the winter pricing ten ta four. Normally you can pay the day of but for winter I believe it has to be done before to lock in ten riders to do the event. I signed up and paid last night got the bike ready tonight. Im ready to sort though some stuff and get the winter webs off.

signed up and paid! This is gonna be a great trackday people. The second to the last winter pricing track day and near 60 degrees!!

I still need to borrow some power for warmers but at least I found a ramp and gas cans.

Also, I just finished watching Suspension for Mortals. I need somebody to help me set sag either before or at the racetrack. This new suspension needs to be configured to me.

Would you have room for one more? I might be interested in going with you if I still have money left from the HPR School weekend.

Somebody talk to glen and get an official count. If it comes down to 1 or 2, I would be willing to pitch in a little extra to make this trackday happen.

He said to check the hotline that he would change it when we got enough. He didn't know the count when I talked to him.

Glenn told me when I was organizing last weeks track day that he wont give out the count anymore because of some drama with the car guys. It looks to be a beautiful day, I don't think there will be any problems, but call after noon on Saturday and he will have it on the machine. I blew my wad last week, but still trying to find an excuse to go. Good luck to you guys.

Nice. I am just hoping there are a few other people from other forums or who signed up on the website that will get us to 10. Pray people. Pray to the god of track days.

Hey guys, there's about 10 minutes left and we haven't made the 10...the curbing guys are finishing up as I'm typing and, honestly, the track is a lot dirtier as a result than I would have anticipated. I can brush/blow it this afternoon but I really think it needs a rainstorm to get good and clean.

Also, the sun is shining and it's about 45 degrees....but the wind is blowing 40 mph. Dunno if that will continue tomorrow...all I'm saying is that if we don't make it I don't want everyone to think they missed out on a "great" day at the track.

Be back just after noon...

OK guys, sorry to say we didn't make it based on signups. As I mentioned above, though, the exits of turns 1, 6 and 8 are quite a mess so conditions would have been less than ideal. I was hoping the curbing construction would start Monday and finish Tuesday, as it happened they started Wednesday and are putting the finishing touches on T8 now.

Food has no taste. The sun has dimmed. The day has just diminished to seconds of agonizing despair. There is no reason to do anything else productive.


Tonight I will put the sumo tires on the 50 and go for a ride to try and satisfy a small portion of this addiction. Somebody find some cones and lets hit up a brightly lit parking lot for some balls to the wall 50 races.
