Track Day..
Well, since SBN finally decided to come up, and thoes of us that went to the track day finally decided to come back to the land of the living (I think we were all spacein out around here for at least a day or 2). I might as well post a little about the track day.
A great time was had by all. We had one little mishap, but that all turned out ok in the end. Hurt ego, and a banged up bike, but not bad by any means. But that is enough of the no fun part.
The day was great, and we all put a whoopin on our tires. Bike all ran wonderfully.
Mandy scored a free track day, and a take off rear tire for her bike. Both of which are sweet. I ended up scoreing a Micron High mount oval slip on for my bike, with a stock headder. Was good stuff.
By the end of the day we were pullin some good laptimes, somewhere in the 1:40's. Which I think is fairly decient out of a stock bike (At least for me), and for a first time on the track experience. Still a little room for improvement. I actually got yelled at by a track official that basically kicked me out of the novice class, and told me to move up at least one class. Something about going too hot into corners and scareing the other riders. So I guess it was kind of a compliment, and kind of chastizeing. I dunno though.
The last session of the day I think we managed to piss off all the other riders in our class enough that none of them wanted to deal with us lapin them another few times the next session. So me and Ben had the entire track to ourselves. We were rippin it up big time. Some of the riders from the expert class came onto the track (I Think to try and put us in our place), and we caught up to and passed thoes foolz also. So it was a blast.
Anyway's, that was about all I want to take the time to type about, their were enough of us there and enough hols for everyone to fill to let everyone have a chance to say what they want.
