Getting into the track scene finally!
Im very excited, yet mad at myself for making this decision so late! But this gives me over the winter to prepare my bike for some track days!
Looking forward to seeing you guys out there!
I plan on going to NJMP more than others since its closest...my wife did say she wants to travel more however...guess she will get to travel to locations of other tracks!
:D

Thanks!! I'd assume you could possibly be one of the CRs to help teach me a few things at the track !!
I'm getting a suit Friday!! (off a member on here actually) and im hoping to be able to get in at least one track day by the end of the year at NJMP!! But if that doesn't work out i'll be picking up a trailer over winter and prepping my bike more over the cold months to come with some suspension goodies! Im so stoked for this!!!!
Very eager to learn to enhance my riding abilities

Soooo the 29th I see is a track day at NJMP.....to do the intro trial...just basically show up in the AM and that's it??
I just sent payment for the track suit an hour ago..so I should have that next week. My gloves don't cover up to my wrist and I have riding shoes, not boots. But I see I can rent them there.
(kind of thinking out loud right now..)
Is there anything special I have to do or contact someone??
And its free to do the trial??? just pay to get in or how does that work?

You still have to register for the free intro sessions, can't just show up, limited spots available. At the top of this page, click the tab 'create an account'. Once you have an account, you should be able to register for the intro session. If not, send an email to info@nesba.com
You shouldn't have to pay anything for the 2 morning intro sessions when you register. If you like it and want to stay for the entire day, you can then pay for the day, if there are spots left in the Beginner group. (intro rides the first two morning sessions in the Beginner group for free).

I'm not sure who, if anyone, is renting boots and gloves, but you'd need to reserve ahead of time. I think Markbilt was renting suits, I'd check with the info@nesba.com address about that, or contact Markbilt directly (markbiltracebikes.com for the contact phone) to see if he will be there and is renting boots/gloves.

Also, post up under Mid-Atlantic to see if anyone who is going that day has a pair of boots/gloves you could borrow. Sometimes folks have extras they don't mind lending out. Post your size, too.

You're welcome! Make sure to read the Riders' Manual (if you haven't already). It's in the "manuals & forms" tab at the top of the page. It'll answer most questions folks have. :)

Ah, yes. That's was one of my husband's tactics, and I did enjoy the traveling, but now look at the end result! All I used to do was complain about how many TDs he was doing, now I ask "When's our next TD????". As he will tell you... be careful what you wish for :banghead:

I plan on being there the 29th. And as Judy said... go ahead and just buy the gloves and boots. There are some closeouts and some deals you can find out there. You could borrow my husbands, but he's a size 11 :(

So, did you get your gear squared away? Will you be there on the 29th? If you have any questions let me know, I'll be there. Look for a black gixxer with red flames, #75.
